We present a fuzzy version of the notion relational Galois connection between transitive directed graphs (fuzzy T-digraphs) on specific setting in which underlying algebra truth values is complete Heyting algebra. The components such are relations satisfying certain reasonable properties expressed terms so-called full powering. Moreover, we provide necessary and sufficient condition under it po...

Supplier selection is a multi-Criteria problem. This study proposes a hybrid model for supporting the suppliers’ selection and ranking. This research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the suppliers where each supplier has multiple Inputs and Outputs. First, the supplier evaluation problem is formulated by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), since the regarded decision deals with uncertai...

In this study two techniques, for modeling electricity consumption of the Jordanian industrial sector, are presented: (i) multivariate linear regression and (ii) neuro-fuzzy models. Electricity consumption is modeled as function of different variables such as number of establishments, number of employees, electricity tariff, prevailing fuel prices, production outputs, capacity utilizations, and...

Out of the web of linked open data, comes a sense of networked “Big Data.” This large scale interconnected data is hierarchical, and often messy and full of subjective bias particularly when mass collaboration is concerned (e.g. wikipedia). In this paper we apply fuzzy set theory, specifically the X-μ approach which is shown to be more efficient than a standard fuzzy approach, to attributes wit...

Fuzzy Logic has been successfully applied to all kinds of scenarios, where degrees of membership and truth can be systematically discerned. However it is highly contentious whether this fact renders Fuzzy Logic an ideal tool for modelling reasoning with vague concepts and propositions. There is a lively and prolific debate in analytic philosophy about so-called theories of vagueness. Interestin...

The fuzzy vault is an error tolerant authentication method that ensures the privacy of the stored reference data. Several publications have proposed the application of the fuzzy vault to fingerprints, but the results of subsequent analyses indicate that a single finger does not contain sufficient information for a secure implementation. In this contribution, we present an implementation of a fu...

This paper investigates the problem of robust output feedback control for a class of uncertain discrete-time fuzzy systems with time delays. The state–space Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model with time delays and norm-bounded parameter uncertainties is adopted. The purpose is the design of a full-order fuzzy dynamic output feedback controller which ensures the robust asymptotic stability of the closed-l...

In this paper we introduce, to the best of our knowledge, the first adaptation of the Fuzzy ARTMAP neural network for its execution on a GPU, together with a self-designed neural network based on ART models called SOON. The full VisTex database, containing 167 texture images, is proved to be classified in a very short time using these GPU-based neural networks. The Fuzzy ARTMAP neural network i...

In this paper, we present a backstepping based fuzzy logic (FL) scheme for the active control of vehicle suspension systems using the two-degrees of freedom or 1/4 car model. The full dynamics of a novel hydraulic strut are considered. The servo-valve dynamics are also included. A fuzzy logic system is used to estimate the nonlinear hydraulic strut dynamics. The backstepping fuzzy logic scheme ...
