A Possibilistic Valid-Time Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Information in databases can be imperfect and this imperfection has several forms and causes. In some cases, a single value should be stored, but it is (partially) unknown. The uncertainty about which value to store leads to the aforementioned imperfection. In temporal databases, uncertainty can arise, concerning which temporal notion needs to be stored. Because in temporal databases, temporal notions influence the consistency with which the database models the reality, this uncertainty has a direct impact on the consistency of the model. To represent this temporal uncertainty, previous works have adapted fuzzy sets with conjunctive interpretation, an approach that might prove misleading. This work presents a model that represents the uncertainty using possibility and necessity measures, which are fuzzy sets with disjunctive interpretations.

متن کاملA Fuzzy Temporal Object-Relational Database: Model and Implementation
In real world, some data have a specific temporal validity that must be appropiately managed. To deal with this kind of data, several proposals of temporal databases have been introduced. Moreover, time can also be affected by imprecision, vagueness, and/or uncertainty, since human beings manage time using temporal indications and temporal notions, which may also be imprecise. For this reason, ...
