We present a topological characterization for fuzzy regular languages: we show that there is a bijective correspondence between fuzzy regular languages and the set of all clopen fuzzy subsets with finite image in the induced fuzzy topological space of Stone space (Profinite space), and then we give a representation of closed fuzzy subsets in the induced fuzzy topological space via fuzzy regular...

In this paper, we present a new method for fuzzy query processing for document retrieval based on extended fuzzy concept networks. In an extended fuzzy concept network, there are four kinds of fuzzy relationships between concepts, i.e., fuzzy positive association, fuzzy negative association, fuzzy generalization, and fuzzy specialization. An extended fuzzy concept network can be modeled by a re...

In this paper, by presenting some notions and theorems, we obtaindifferent types of fuzzy topologies. In fact, we obtain someLowen-type  and Chang-type fuzzy topologies on general fuzzyautomata. To this end, first we define a Kuratowski fuzzy interioroperator which induces a  Lowen-type  fuzzy topology on the  set ofstates of a max- min general   fuzzy automaton. Also by  provingsome theorems, ...

In this paper are introduced some concepts of interval-valued fuzzy relations and some of their properties: reflexivity, symmetry, T-transitivity, composition and local reflexivity. The existence and uniqueness of T-transitive closure of interval-valued fuzzy relations is proved. An algorithm to compute the T-transitive closure of finite interval-valued fuzzy relations is showed. Some propertie...

The formal system L of fuzzy propositional logic has been successfully applied to the joint research of fuzzy logic and fuzzy reasoning. The current paper further studies the syntactic structure of the system L, presents several new results with respect to this system. Especially, a simplified system which contains only seven axioms is proposed, and the system is found to be equivalent to the o...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of fuzzy C-matroids, a new class of fuzzy matroids. We study properties of this class and define several new types of fuzzy maps between fuzzy matroids. In addition, we define fuzzy C-inner and fuzzy C-closure operators in this class and characterize fuzzy C-matroids and fuzzy maps between matroids in terms of these notions.

In this paper, the concept of fuzzy local ω-language, Büchi fuzzy local ω-language are studied and we give some closure properties of fuzzy local ω-languages. We also establish relationship between deterministic fuzzy local automaton and fuzzy local ω-language. Further we show that every fuzzy regular ω-language is a projection of a Büchi fuzzy local ω-language.
