A fuzzy expression processor with modifiers and hedges, conceptual design and tests

چکیده
In this paper, we present a new approach to the design of a fuzzy expressions processor with semantic modifiers and operators. We make use of this approach to define fuzzy operations like “greater than”, “less than” and “between”. These expressions are formalized by means of membership functions. The formalization of the method is discussed, and some examples of its use are presented and justified.

A Context–based Approach to Linguistic Hedges
We present a framework of L-fuzzy modifiers for L being a complete lattice. They are used to model linguistic hedges that act on linguistic terms represented by L-fuzzy sets. In the modelling process the context is taken into account by means of L-fuzzy relations, endowing the L-fuzzy modifiers with a clear inherent semantics. To our knowledge, these L-fuzzy modifiers are the first ones propose...
متن کاملThe Fuzzy Description Logic ALCFH with Hedge Algebras as Concept Modifiers
In this paper we present the fuzzy description logic ALCFH introduced, where primitive concepts are modified by means of hedges taken from hedge algebras. ALCFH is strictly more expressive than Fuzzy-ALC defined in [11]. We show that given a linearly ordered set of hedges primitive concepts can be modified to any desired degree by prefixing them with appropriate chains of hedges. Furthermore, w...

متن کاملA New Generation of the Fuzzy-set-theoretical Representation of Modified Linguistic Terms
Fuzzy set theory provides a framework in which natural language expressions can be modelled mathematically, thereby even taking the vagueness of linguistic terms into account. In fuzzy systems a linguistic term (e.g. fast) is represented by a fuzzy set, while a linguistic modifier (e.g. very) is modelled by an operator (also known as hedge) transforming a fuzzy set into another. In the paper fi...
متن کاملLinguistic Hedges: a Quantifier Based Approach
We present an entirely new approach for the representation of intensifying and weakening linguistic hedges in fuzzy set theory, which is primarily based on a crisp ordering relation associated with the term that is modified, as well as on a fuzzy quantifier. With this technique we can generate membership functions for both atomic and modified linguistic terms. We prove that our model respects s...
