Both crisp and fuzzy rule-based expert systems are increasingly used in the real-time environments. For both types of systems the stability and nite response time are required. It is therefore crucial for both to provide tools that perform stability analysis. This paper shows how the analysis tools built for crisp real-time rule-based system might be used for fuzzy systems as well. Major diiere...

in a recent paper, de baets et al. have characterized the fuzzytolerance and fuzzy equivalence relations that a given strict order relation iscompatible with. in this paper, we generalize this characterization by consideringan arbitrary (crisp) relation instead of a strict order relation, while payingattention to the particular cases of a reflexive or irreflexive relation. the reasoninglargely ...

This paper presents a general framework for the study of rough fuzzy sets in which fuzzy sets are approximated in a crisp approximation space. By the constructive approach, a pair of lower and upper generalized rough fuzzy approximation operators is first defined. The rough fuzzy approximation operators are represented by a class of generalized crisp approximation operators. Properties of rough...

Using neural network we try to model the unknown function f for given input-output data pairs. The connection strength of each neuron is updated through learning. Repeated simulations of crisp neural network produce different values of weight factors that are directly affected by the change of different parameters. We propose the idea that for each neuron in the network, we can obtain quasi-fuz...

A Real-Time Optimization (RTO) strategy incorporating the fuzzy sets theory is developed, where the problem constraints obtained from process considerations are treated in fuzzy environment. Furthermore, the objective function is penalized by a fuzzified form of the key process constraints. To enable using conventional optimization techniques, the resulting fuzzy optimization problem is the...

In this paper we describe an operation on directed graphs which produces a graph with fewer vertices, such that the C-algebra of the new graph is Morita equivalent to that of the original graph. We unify and generalize several related constructions, notably delays and desingularizations of directed graphs.

in this paper, a model of an optimal control problem with chance constraints is introduced. the parametersof the constraints are fuzzy, random or fuzzy random variables. todefuzzify the constraints, we consider possibility levels.  bychance-constrained programming the chance constraints are converted to crisp constraints which are neither fuzzy nor stochastic and then the resulting classical op...

Time modeling is a crucial feature in many application domains. However, temporal information often is not crisp, but is uncertain, subjective and vague. This is particularly true when representing historical information, as historical accounts are inherently imprecise. Similarly, we conjecture that in the Semantic Web representing uncertain temporal information will be a common requirement. He...

Rough set is a new approach to uncertainties in spatial analysis. In this paper, we complete three works under the umbrella of rough space. First, a set of simplified rough symbols is extended on the basis of existing rough symbols. It is in terms of rough interpretation and specialized indication. Second, rough spatial entity is proposed to study the real world as it is, without forcing uncert...
