Information fusion introduces special operators ◦ in probability theory and fuzzy theory. Some serious data certify in each cases these two quite distinct techniques. This communication will show that four postulates are the unique aim of these two theories. Evidence theory and fuzzy set theory replace often probabilities in medicine, economy and control. Fuzzy theory is used for example in Jap...

the intuitionistic fuzzy set has been applied to game theory very rarely since it was introduced by atanassov in 1983. the aim of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving matrix games with payoffs of atanassov’s triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns). in this methodology, the concepts and ranking order relations of atanassov’s tifns are defined. a pair of bi-object...

In this paper, the dual hesitant fuzzy rough set (DHFRS) is studied from the viewpoint of assessment deviations. Firstly, according to the relationship between intuitionistic fuzzy set and vague set, the DHFRS is transferred into a fuzzy set, where the membership of any given element to it has multi-grouped values. By the idea of bootstrap sampling, a group of four sets are generated to describ...

Powerset structures of extensional fuzzy sets in sets with similarity relations are investigated. It is proved that extensional fuzzy sets have powerset structures which are powerset theories in the category of sets with similarity relations, and some of these powerset theories are defined also by algebraic theories (monads). Between Zadeh's fuzzy powerset theory and the classical powerset theo...

the present paper introduces the notion of the complete fuzzy norm on a linear space. and, some relations between the fuzzy completeness and ordinary completeness on a linear space is considered, moreover a new form of fuzzy compact spaces, namely b-compact spaces and b-closed spaces are introduced. some characterizations of their properties are obtained.

Since its introduction, answer set programming has been generalized in many directions, to cater to the needs of real-world applications. As one of the most general “classical” approaches, answer sets of arbitrary propositional theories can be defined as models in the equilibrium logic of Pearce. Fuzzy answer set programming, on the other hand, extends answer set programming with the capability...

in this paper, we consider the production possibility set with n production units such that the following four principles that governs: inclusion observations, conceivability, immensity and convexity. our goal is to estimate the output of a same and new production unit with existing production possibility and amount of input is specified. so, initially we find the interval changes of each input...

Popper’s Logic of Scientific Discovery and Kuhn’s Structures of Scientific Revolutions are enormous important concepts on theories and their dynamic in 20 th century history and philosophy of science. How-ever, the works of the two have been criticized in the last half century and new views on theory nets and theory evolution appeared. In the last decades also new scientific methods and tools s...

Fuzzy answer set programming (FASP) combines two declarative frameworks, answer set programming and fuzzy logic, in order to model reasoning by default over imprecise information. Several connectives are available to combine different expressions; in particular the Gödel and Lukasiewicz fuzzy connectives are usually considered, due to their properties. Although the Gödel conjunction can be easi...
