A fuzzy bag is a bag in which each occurrence of an element is associated with a grade of membership. This notion can be viewed as a generalization of the concepts of set, fuzzy set and bag. The set of fuzzy integers (Nf ) provides a general characterization in which all these different concepts are treated in a uniform way and can then be composed. In the field of databases, the use of fuzzy b...

Data sets that characterize human activity over time through collections of timestamped events or counts are of increasing interest in application areas as humancomputer interaction, video surveillance, and Web data analysis. We propose a non-parametric Bayesian framework for modeling collections of such data. In particular, we use a Dirichlet process framework for learning a set of intensity f...

The development of precision grammars is an inherently resource-intensive process; their complexity means that changes made to one area of a grammar often introduce unexpected flow-on effects elsewhere in the grammar which may only be discovered after some time has been invested in updating numerous test suite items. In this paper, we present the browser-based gDelta tool, which aims to provide...

in this paper we introduce the notions of fuzzy transposition hypergroupsand fuzzy regular relations and investigate their basic properties.we also study fuzzy quotient hypergroups of a fuzzy transposition hypergroup.

A closed subalgebra of a Banach algebra is called maximal if it is not contained in any larger proper closed subalgebra. Let G be a discrete abelian topological group and L its group-algebra, i.e. L is the Banach algebra of functions/on G with E*e<J |/(X)| < °° and multiplication defined as convolution. What are the maximal subalgebras of L? The complete answer is not known even when G is the g...
