Belief Functions on MV-Algebras of Fuzzy Events Based on Fuzzy Evidence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently Kroupa has proposed a generalization of belief functions on MV-algebras, the latter being the chosen algebraic setting for fuzzy (or many-valued) events. However, Kroupa’s belief functions evaluate the degree of belief in the occurrence of fuzzy events by taking into account (weighted) evidence on classical subsets. In other words, the focal elements, used in determining the degree of belief, are classical sets. Within the MV-algebraic setting, the aim of the present work is to introduce a generalization of Kroupa belief functions that allows to deal with fuzzy events supported by evidence on fuzzy subsets.

Belief Functions on MV-algebras of Fuzzy Sets: An Overview
Belief functions are the measure theoretical objects Dempster-Shafer evidence theory is based on. They are in fact totally monotone capacities, and can be regarded as a special class of measures of uncertainty used to model an agent?s degrees of belief in the occurrence of a set of events by taking into account different bodies of evidence that support those beliefs. In this chapter we present ...
متن کاملLogics for belief functions on MV-algebras
In this paper we present a generalization of belief functions over fuzzy events. In particular we focus on belief functions defined in the algebraic framework of finite MV-algebras of fuzzy sets. We introduce a fuzzy modal logic to formalize reasoning with belief functions on many-valued events. We prove, among other results, that several different notions of belief functions can be characteriz...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of fuzzy obstinate ideals in MV -algebras. Some properties of fuzzy obstinateideals are given. Not only we give some characterizations of fuzzy obstinate ideals, but also bring the extension theorem of fuzzy obstinate ideal of an MV -algebra A. We investigate the relationships between fuzzy obstinate ideals and the other fuzzy ideals of an MV -algebra. We ...
متن کاملA Note on the Convex Structure of Uncertainty Measures on MV-algebras
In this paper we address the issue of providing a geometrical characterization for the decision problem of asking whether a partial assignment β : fi 7→ αi mapping fuzzy events fi into real numbers αi (i = 1, . . . , n) extends to a generalized belief function on fuzzy sets, according to a suitable definition. We will characterize this problem in a way that allows to treat it as the membership ...
