This paper discusses inference strategies for fuzzy rule bases resulting from databased automatic rule generation algorithms. Typical methods for rule generation are tree-oriented, statistical and evolutionary approaches. The aim of these data-based methods is the design of compact rule bases with a small number of interpretable rules which map the learning data set and provide a su cient stati...

Fuzzy cellular automata (FCA) are continuous cellular automata where the local rule is defined as the “fuzzification” of the local rule of a corresponding Boolean cellular automaton in disjunctive normal form. In this paper we are interested in the relationship between Boolean and fuzzy models and we analytically show, for the first time, the existence of a strong connection between them by foc...

To each fuzzy subgroup a fuzzy equivalence relation is associated and it is proved that a fuzzy subgroup is normal if and only if the operation of the group is compatible with its associated fuzzy equivalence relation. In the de-nition of fuzzy subgroup only the subset is fuzzy whilst the group operation remains crisp. In an opposite direction, another structure can be constructed maintaining c...

Security term in mobile ad hoc networks has several aspects because of the special specification of these networks. In this paper a distributed architecture was proposed in which each node performed intrusion detection based on its own and its neighbors’ data. Fuzzy-neural interface was used that is the composition of learning ability of neural network and fuzzy Ratiocination of fuzzy system as...

daily constant discharges are needed estimating daily discharge in the hydrological model. the different number of statistical years, statistical deficiencies, and measurement error leads to the formation of time series with an uncommon time base. hence the reconstruction of daily discharge data is of paramount importance. in this research, daily discharge was reconstructed in two stages in one...

Are complex predicates—in particular, negated (e.g., not expensive), conjunctive (e.g., expensive and time consuming) and disjunctive predicates (e.g., tall or bald)—associated with a graded structure, namely a mapping of entities to degrees? On the one hand, most up to date semantic theories of gradability and comparison in natural language disregard this question. On the other hand, contempor...

Abstract A significant efforts have been done by scientists and researchers in the last few years to develop many non-destructive techniques for damage recognition in a beam like dynamic structures. In this paper, theoretical, numerical, fuzzy logic methods employed for diagnosis of damage in the form of cracks of the cantilever composite beam with an aim to detect, quantify, and determine its ...

In this paper, we generalize Ying’s model of linguistic quantifiers [M.S. Ying, Linguistic quantifiers modeled by Sugeno integrals, Artificial Intelligence, 170 (2006) 581-606] to intuitionistic linguistic quantifiers. An intuitionistic linguistic quantifier is represented by a family of intuitionistic fuzzy-valued fuzzy measures and the intuitionistic truth value (the degrees of satisfaction a...
