Following the idea of $L$-fuzzy neighborhood system as introduced byFu-Gui Shi, and its generalization to $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood system, the relationship between  $(L,M)$-fuzzy topology and $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood system will be further studied. As an application of the obtained results, we will describe the initial structures of $(L,M)$-fuzzy neighborhood subspaces and $(L,M)$-fuzzy top...

Considering a commutative unital quantale L as the truth value table and using the tool of L-generalized convergence structures of stratified L-filters, this paper introduces a kind of fuzzy upper topology, called fuzzy S-upper topology, on L-preordered sets. It is shown that every fuzzy join-preserving L-subset is open in this topology. When L is a complete Heyting algebra, for every completel...

This paper analyzes the number of operations and parameters of general fuzzy logic control algorithms. And limitations of loop controllers to implement the fuzzy logic control are investigated in terms of computation time and required memory. Using analysis of general fuzzy logic control algorithms, it is shown that general fuzzy logic control algorithms are not suitable for loop controllers. A...

In the last decade fuzzy control (FC) has become a very popular control paradigm. Nowadays fuzzy controllers are very successful in a wide range of application domains and the market for such FC applications is still expanding. Nevertheless, the theoretical framework of FC is far beyond its practical success. While many convincing applications justify Mamdani's original FC design, from a theore...

In this paper, we take a GL-quantale as the truth value table to study a new rough set model—L-valued fuzzy rough sets. The three key components of this model are: an L-fuzzy set A as the universal set, an L-valued relation of A and an L-fuzzy set of A (a fuzzy subset of fuzzy sets). Then L-valued fuzzy rough sets are completely characterized via both constructive and axiomatic approaches. 

This paper presents the concepts of $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces and stratified $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces. It is shown that the category of stratified $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces is a bireflective subcategory of the category of $(L,M)$-fuzzy Q-convergence spaces, and the former is a Cartesian-closed topological category. Also, it is proved that the category of stratified $...

Information in databases can be imperfect and this imperfection has several forms and causes. In some cases, a single value should be stored, but it is (partially) unknown. The uncertainty about which value to store leads to the aforementioned imperfection. In temporal databases, uncertainty can arise, concerning which temporal notion needs to be stored. Because in temporal databases, temporal ...

In real problems, there are basically two kind of uncertainty: uncertainty due to the lack of knowledge with respect to well defined objects, but for which there are different hypothetical situations, and uncertainty due to the intrinsic vagueness of the objects. Traditionally, the first type of uncertainty has been studied with the help of Probability Theory while the second one has used Fuzzy...

A causal diagnosis solution relying on experts’ knowledge concentrates on the different malfunctions that may disturb the data acquisition process and tells the engine test bench tuning engineer which malfunction has occurred or which malfunctions are most likely suspected. The use of fuzzy sets and possibility theory provides better feedback and knowledge representation. The general architectu...

In this paper a wide class of discrete optimization problems, which can be formulated as a 0-1 linear programming problem is discussed. It is assumed that the objective function costs are not precisely known. This uncertainty is modeled by specifying a finite set of fuzzy scenarios. Under every fuzzy scenario the costs are given as fuzzy intervals. Possibility theory is then applied to chose a ...
