We show that the category of convergence approach spaces is a simultaneously reective and coreective subcategory of the category of latticevalued limit spaces. Further we study the preservation of diagonal conditions, which characterize approach spaces. It is shown that the category of preapproach spaces is a simultaneously reective and coreective subcategory of the category of lattice-valued p...

Fuzzy clustering algorithms like the popular fuzzy cmeans algorithm (FCM) are frequently used to automatically divide up the data space into fuzzy granules (fuzzy vector quantization). In the context of fuzzy systems, in order to be intuitive and meaningful to the user, the fuzzy membership functions of the used linguistic terms have to fulfill some requirements like boundedness of support or u...

Abstract We present a new type of fuzzy controller constructed with the B spline model and its applications in modelling and control Un like the other normalised parameterised set functions for de ning fuzzy sets B spline basis functions do not necessarily span from membership value to but possess the property partition of unity These B spline basis functions are automatically determined after ...

Rough set theory was proposed by Pawlak [1] as a mathematical tool to handle imprecision and uncertainty in data analysis. It has been successfully applied tomachine learning, intelligent systems, inductive reasoning, pattern recognition, mereology, image processing, signal analysis, knowledge discovery, decision analysis, expert systems, and many other fields [2–5]. The basic structure of roug...

Fuzzy set theory has entered into a large variety of disciplines of sciences,technology and humanities having established itself as an extremely versatileinterdisciplinary research area. Accordingly different notions of fuzzystructure have been developed such as fuzzy normed linear space, fuzzytopological vector space, fuzzy sequence space etc. While reviewing theliterature in fuzzy sequence sp...

In 1965 L. A Zadeh [11] introduced fuzzy sets as a generalization of ordinary sets. After that C. L. Chang [2] introduced fuzzy topology and that led to the discussion of various aspects of L-topology by many authors. The Čech closure spaces introduced by Čech E. [1] is a generalization of the topological spaces. The theory of fuzzy closure spaces has been established by Mashhour and Ghanim [4]...

The study of fixed points on the maps fulfilling certain contraction requirements has several applications and been focus numerous research endeavors. On other hand, as an extension idea best approximation, proximity point (ƁƤƤ) emerges. approximation theorem ensures existence approximate solution; is considered for addressing problem in order to arrive at optimum solution. This paper introduce...

the starting point of this paper is given by priestley’s papers, where a theory of representation of distributive lattices is presented. the purpose of this paper is to develop a representation theory of fuzzy distributive lattices in the finite case. in this way, some results of priestley’s papers are extended. in the main theorem, we show that the category of finite fuzzy priestley space...
