Paired Structures and other opposites-based models

چکیده
In this paper we present a new class of fuzzy sets, paired fuzzy sets, that tries to overcome any conflict between families of fuzzy sets that share a main characteristic: that they are generated from two basic opposite fuzzy sets. Hence, the first issue is to formalize the notion of opposition, that we will assume dependent on a specific negation, previously determined. In this way we can define a paired fuzzy set as a couple of opposite valuation fuzzy sets. Then we shall explore what kind of new valuation fuzzy sets can be generated from the semantic tension between those two poles, leading to a more complex valuation structure that still keeps the essence of being paired. In this way several neutral fuzzy sets can appear, in particular indeterminacy, ambivalence and conflict. Two consequences are then presented: on one hand, we will show how Atanassov ́s Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets can be viewed as a particular paired structure when the classical fuzzy negation is considered; on the other hand, the relationship of this model with bipolarity is reconsidered from our paired view.

Chloride ion ingress is one of the major problems that affect the durability of reinforced concrete structures such as bridge decks, concrete pavements, and other structures exposed to harsh saline environments. Therefore, durability based design of concrete structures in marine areas has gained great significance in recent decades and various mathematical models for estimating the service life...
متن کاملComparison and evaluation of the performance of data-driven models for estimating suspended sediment downstream of Doroodzan Dam
Dams control most of the sediment entering the reservoir by creating static environments. However, sediment leaving the dam depends on various factors such as dam management method, inlet sediment, water height in the reservoir, the shape of the reservoir, and discharge flow. In this research, the amount of suspended sediment of Doroodzan Dam based on a statistical period of 25 years has been i...

In this paper, we focus on the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)-based model structures have been used in assessing bank branch efficiency. Probing the methodologies of 75 published studies at the branch level since 1985 to early 2015, we found that these models can be divided into four categories: standard basic DEA models, single level and multi-level models, enriched (hybrid) models and specia...
متن کاملThe effects of presenting oncologic information in terms of opposites in a medical context
Background An extensive body of literature has demonstrated that many patients who have been asked to participate in clinical trials do not fully understand the informed consent forms. A parallel independent study has demonstrated that opposites have a special status in human cognitive organization: they are common to all-natural languages and are intuitively and naturally understood and learnt...
متن کاملPaired structures in knowledge representation
In this position paper we propose a consistent and unifying view to all those basic knowledge representation models that are based on the existence of two somehow opposite fuzzy concepts. A number of these basic models can be found in fuzzy logic and multi-valued logic literature. Here it is claimed that it is the semantic relationship between two paired concepts what determines the emergence o...
