On measuring fuzziness: a comment on "A fuzzy set approach to modifiers and vagueness in natural language".
نویسنده
چکیده
Hersh and Caramazza's application of fuzzy set theory to vagueness in natural language is criticized for including in their measures of fuzziness response variability due to experimental and statistical procedures.

A research on classification performance of fuzzy classifiers based on fuzzy set theory
Due to the complexities of objects and the vagueness of the human mind, it has attracted considerable attention from researchers studying fuzzy classification algorithms. In this paper, we propose a concept of fuzzy relative entropy to measure the divergence between two fuzzy sets. Applying fuzzy relative entropy, we prove the conclusion that patterns with high fuzziness are close to the classi...
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 کاملA modified branch and bound algorithm for a vague flow-shop scheduling problem
Uncertainty plays a significant role in modeling and optimization of real world systems. Among uncertain approaches, fuzziness describes impreciseness while for ambiguity another definition is required. Vagueness is a probabilistic model of uncertainty being helpful to include ambiguity into modeling different processes especially in industrial systems. In this paper, a vague set based on dista...
متن کاملThe Fuzziness of Fuzzy Ideals
The backing of the fuzzy ideal is normal ideal in some ring and in same time there fuzzy set whose is not fuzzy ideal and it backing set is ideal, i.e., it crisp is normal ideal. Consequently, in this paper we constructing a fuzziness function which defined on fuzzy sets and assigns membership grade for every fuzzy set whose it backing set are crisp ideal. Now, Let be collection of all fuzzy s...
متن کاملCoping with vague and fuzzy words : a Multi-Expert Natural Language System which overcomes ambiguities
the system we present in this contribution is a sub-part of an extensive natural language processing architecture. It is devoted to a particular phenomenon in natural language : the polysemy of words, which produces effects such as vagueness and fuzziness and impedes the normal automatized processing of sentences. We try to show in this paper how our architecture, currently running on a network...
