This work focuses on adapting artificial intelligence techniques for urban growth modeling using multitemporal imagery. Fuzzy set theory and cellular automata are used for this purpose. Fuzzy set theory preserves the spatial continuity of the growth process through allowing a test pixel to be partially developed unlike the binary crisp system (developed/undeveloped). The development level ident...

In this paper, we study continuity properties in Hausdorff topology for different special set multifunctions. Key–words: set multifunction, multi(sub)measure, regular, exhaustive, increasing/decreasing convergent, order continuity, probability.

It is well know that when these concepts arose in PhD disertation of Sugeno in 1974 [1], a lot of works has been done as much in the theoretical branch as in the applied. As we know, the classical measure and the corresponding integral are based on the additivity property, but this property is uncommun in the applied context and could be too restrictive for the appliance. For instance, measurem...

In the present paper, we prove a characterization theorem which gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence of fuzzy numbers to be levelwise statistically convergent in the space of fuzzy numbers. As an application of this theorem we utilize the idea of statistical equi-continuity in order to obtain a condition which guarantees the set of levelwise statistical cluster points of a ...

PN (point-normal) triangles are cubic Bézier triangles which meet at their edges to surface a triangular mesh, but this only achieves G0 continuity. We define blending regions that span the edges shared by adjacent pairs of triangular domains and blend the corresponding Bézier triangles using a univariate blending function formulated in terms of barycentric coordinates. This produces G2 continu...

In this paper, we determine some stability results concerning the 2-dimensional vector variable quadratic functional equation f(x+ y, z + w) + f(x − y, z − w) = 2f(x, z) + 2f(y, w) in intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces (IFNS). We define the intuitionistic fuzzy continuity of the 2-dimensional vector variable quadratic mappings and prove that the existence of a solution for any approximately 2-d...

We study a topology on a space of functions, called sticking topology, with the property to be the weakest among the topologies preserving continuity. In suitable frameworks, this topology preserves borelianity, local integrability, right continuity and other properties. It is coarser than the locally uniform convergence and it allows the presence of gliding humps as we show on examples. We pro...

Brownian motions in the innnite-dimensional group of all unitary operators are studied under strong continuity assumption rather than norm continuity. Every such motion can be described in terms of a countable collection of independent one-dimensional Brownian motions. The proof involves continuous tensor products and continuous quantum measurements. A by-product: a Brownian motion in a separab...

We study the topological dynamics by iterations of a piecewise continuous, non linear and locally contractive map in a real finite dimensional compact ball. We consider those maps satisfying the “separation property”: different continuity pieces have disjoint images. The continuity pieces act as stable topological manifolds while the points in the discontinuity lines, separating different conti...
