Based on the in-depth analysis of the essence and features of vague phenomena, this paper focuses on establishing the axiomatical foundation of membership degree theory for vague phenomena, presents an axiomatic system to govern membership degrees and their interconnections. On this basis, the concept of vague partition is introduced, further, the concept of fuzzy set introduced by Zadeh in 196...

Logistic regression is a non-linear modification of the linearregression. The purpose of the logistic regression analysis is tomeasure the effects of multiple explanatory variables which can becontinuous and response variable is categorical. In real life there aresituations which we deal with information that is vague innature and there are cases that are not explainedprecisely. In this regard,...

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...

In the construction process of smart grid, an assessment on primary equipments intelligent transformation is an urgent content in the first batch of intelligent substation pilot project. Wide investigation of intelligent substation pilot projects was conducted seriously in several regional power grids in China. An mathematical model was established to assess the substation primary equipments in...

In some quality control applications, the quality of a process or a product is described by the relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables, called a profile. Moreover, in most practical applications, the qualitative characteristic of a product/service is vague, uncertain and linguistic and cannot be precisely stated. The purpose of this paper is to propose a ...

Received: October 28, 2017 Revised: December 28, 2017 Accepted: January 30, 2018 Abstract: Background: When patient(s) approach to a medical expert to explain their problems, they often explain their conditions through vague linguistic expression [1]. Medical expert needs to prepare a list of potential symptoms for the particular diseases of the patients based on their vague linguistic statemen...

To tackle the problem with inexact, uncertainty and vague knowl- edge, constructive method is utilized to formulate lower and upper approx- imation sets. Rough set model over dual-universes in fuzzy approximation space is constructed. In this paper, we introduce the concept of rough set over dual-universes in fuzzy approximation space by means of cut set. Then, we discuss properties of rough se...

Description Logics (DLs) are knowledge representation languages useful to represent concepts and roles. Fuzzy Description Logics (FDLs) incorporate both vague concepts and vague roles modeling them as fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations respectively. In the present paper, following ideas from Hájek, we propose the use of t-norm based (fuzzy) logics with truth constants in the language as logics unde...

Although crisp data are fundamentally indispensable in the conventional linear programming technique for multidimensional analysis of preference (LINMAP), the observed values in the real-world problems are often imprecise or vague. These imprecise or vague data can be suitably characterized by linguistic terms which are fuzzy in nature. LINMAP has been widely used to solve multi-attribute decis...
