A Mathematical Formalization of Fuzzy Trace Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we develop a novel formalization of Fuzzy Trace Theory (FTT), a leading theory of qualitative risky decision-making. Our model is the first to explicitly formalize and integrate the concepts of gist and the gist hierarchy. Domain knowledge constrains the space of possible decision problems, explaining which gists are chosen in which contexts. We test our model against risky-choice framing and Allais paradox problems, and manipulations of these problems. Our results also confirm new predictions regarding how problem manipulations can enhance or attenuate framing effects.

A central aim of educational research in the area of mathematical modeling and applications is to recognize the attainment level of students at defined states of the modeling process. In this paper, we introduce principles of fuzzy sets theory and possibility theory to describe the process of mathematical modeling in the classroom. The main stages of the modeling process are represented as fuzz...
متن کاملNumber-free Mathematics Based on T-norm Fuzzy Logic
The paper presents a form of rendering classical mathematical notions by formal theories over suitable t-norm fuzzy logics in such a way that references to real numbers are eliminated from definitions and theorems, being removed to the standard semantics of fuzzy logic. Several examples demonstrate how this move conceptually simplifies the theory in exchange for non-classical reasoning, facilit...
متن کاملA formal theory of generalized intermediate syllogisms
This paper is a continuation of the formal theory of intermediate quantifiers (expressions such as most, few, almost all, a lot of, many, a great deal of, a large part of, a small part of ) introduced by Novák in [12]. The theory is a fuzzy-logic formalization of the concept introduced by Peterson in his book [17]. In this paper, we syntactically prove that 105 generalized Aristotle’s syllogism...
متن کاملAdaptive Networks Safety Control on Fuzzy Logic
In this paper we suggest a new approach to design of the adaptive network safety control mechanisms. This approach is based on the fuzzy logic theory and allows to formalize both quantitative and qualitative parameters of the network safety system. Also it is suggested an algorithm for design of the model for the adaptive network safety control mechanism with safety functional requirements form...
متن کاملThe Formal Construction of Fuzzy Numbers
In this article, we continue the development of the theory of fuzzy sets [23], started with [14] with the future aim to provide the formalization of fuzzy numbers [8] in terms reflecting the current state of the Mizar Mathematical Library. Note that in order to have more usable approach in [14], we revised that article as well; some of the ideas were described in [12]. As we can actually unders...
