In Defense of the Law of Noncontradiction
object that encodes the properties satisfying the condition. If that is the theory we are trying to formalize, then it is not ad hoc to place restrictions on relation comprehension. The addition of such a restriction is just the way one goes about holding the domain of properties fixed.
متن کاملProbability, fuzziness and borderline cases
An integrated approach to truth-gaps and epistemic uncertainty is described, based on probability distributions defined over a set of three-valued truth models. This combines the explicit representation of borderline cases with both semantic and stochastic uncertainty, in order to define measures of subjective belief in vague propositions. Within this framework we investigate bridges between pr...
متن کاملThe interpretation of fuzziness
By analyzing related issues in psychology and linguistics, two basic types of fuzziness can be attributed to similarity and relativity, respectively. In both cases, it is possible to interpret grade of membership as the proportion of positive evidence, so as to treat fuzziness and randomness uniformly.
متن کاملFormal Specification under Fuzziness
Judging the quality of any decision making procedure is a key problem whenever there is no possibility of developing a sequence of experiments allowing some kind of ratio relative to good results. It may be the case that we have only chances for a unique experiment or no similar experiences are available, but it may be also the case that no standard experiment allows the observation of such a g...
متن کاملSufficiency and Fuzziness in Random Experiments*
In previous papers, the consequences of the "presence of fuzziness" in the experimental information on which statistical inferences are based were discussed. Thus, the intuitive assertion ((fuzziness entails a loss of information)) was formalized, by comparing the information in the "exact case" with that in the "fuzzy case". This comparison was carried out through different criteria to compare...
