The main purpose of this paper is to use a new way to extend fuzzy implications $I$ from a generalized sublattice $M$ to a bounded lattice $L$, such that the extended implications preserve many of the considered properties of fuzzy implications on $M$.Furthermore, as a special case, we investigate the extension of $(S,N)-$implications. Results indicate that the extended implications preserve ma...

Recently, Vemuri and Jayaram proposed a novel method of generating fuzzy implications from a given pair of fuzzy implications. Viewing this as a binary operation ~ on the set I of all fuzzy implications they obtained, for the first time, a monoid structure (I,~) on the set I. Some algebraic aspects of (I,~) had already been explored and hitherto unknown representation results for the Yager’s fa...

This paper deals with closure properties of models of fuzzy attribute implications. Fuzzy attribute implications are particular IF-THEN rules which can be interpreted in data tables with fuzzy attributes and/or ranked data tables over domains with similarity relations. We show that models of any set of fuzzy attribute implications form a fuzzy closure system with hedge. Conversely, we show that...

In this paper, the orders induced by the residual implications obtained from uninorms are investigated. A necessary and sufficient condition is presented so that the ordinal sum of fuzzy implications satisfies the law of importation with a t-norm $T$. Some relationships between the orders induced by an ordinal sum implication and its summands are determined. The algebraic structures obtained fr...

The main contribution of this paper is to introduce an autonomous definition of the connective “fuzzy exclusive or” (fuzzy Xor, for short), which is independent from others connectives. Also, two canonical definitions of the connective Xor are obtained from the composition of fuzzy connectives, and based on the commutative and associative properties related to the notions of triangular norms, t...

We discuss the algebraic properties of intuitionistic fuzzy implications. We examine the conjugacy problem in this family of functions. The characterizations of intuitionistic fuzzy S-implications and some lattice properties of intuitionistic fuzzy implications are presented.
