Fuzzy data given by expert knowledge can be regarded as a possibility distribution by which possibilistic linear systems are defined. Recently, it has become important to deal with fuzzy data in connection with expert knowledge. Three formulations of possibilistic linear regression analysis are proposed here to deal with fuzzy data. Since our formulations can be reduced to linear programming pr...

Possibility theory offers a qualitative framework for modeling decision under uncertainty. In this setting, pessimistic and optimistic decision criteria have been formally justified. The computation by means of possibilistic logic inference of optimal decisions according to such criteria has been proposed. This paper presents an Answer Set Programming (ASP)-based methodology for modeling decisi...

Possibilistic Defeasible Logic Programming (P-DeLP) is an argumentation framework based on logic programming which incorporates a treatment of possibilistic uncertainty at object-language level. In P-DeLP, the closure of justified conclusions is not always consistent, which has been detected to be an anomaly in the context of so-called rationality postulates for rule-based argumentation systems...

An architecture for the implementation of possibilistic models in an object-oriented programming environment (C++ in particular) is described. Fundamental classes for special and general random sets, their associated fuzzy measures, special and general distributions and fuzzy sets, and possibilistic processes are speciied. Supplementary methods|including the fast MM obius transform, the maximum...

In the last decade defeasible argumentation frameworks have evolved to become a sound setting to formalize commonsense, qualitative reasoning. The logic programming paradigm has shown to be particularly useful for developing different argument-based frameworks on the basis of different variants of logic programming which incorporate defeasible rules. Most of such frameworks, however, are unable...

Possibilistic Defeasible Logic Programming (P-DeLP) is a logic programming language which combines features from argumentation theory and logic programming, incorporating as well the treatment of possibilistic uncertainty and fuzzy knowledge at object-language level. Solving a P-DeLP query Q accounts for performing an exhaustive analysis of arguments and defeaters for Q, resulting in a so-calle...
