Categorical approaches to non-commutative fuzzy logic

چکیده

In this paper we consider what it means for a logic to be non-commutative, how to generate examples of structures with a noncommutative operation * which have enough nice properties to serve as the truth values for a logic. Inference in the propositional logic is gotten from the categorical properties (products, coproducts, monoidal and closed structures, adjoint functors) of the categories of truth values. We then show how to extend this view of propositional logic to a predicate logic using categories of propositions about a type A with functors giving change of type and adjoints giving quantifiers. In the case where the semantics takes place in Set (L) (Goguen's category of L-fuzzy sets), the categories of predicates about A can be represented as internal category objects with the quantifiers as internal functors.

An Introduction to Effectus Theory

Effectus theory is a new branch of categorical logic that aims to capture the essentials of quantum logic, with probabilistic and Boolean logic as special cases. Predicates in effectus theory are not subobjects having a Heyting algebra structure, like in topos theory, but ‘characteristic’ functions, forming effect algebras. Such effect algebras are algebraic models of quantitative logic, in whi...

Fuzzy logic controlled differential evolution to solve economic load dispatch problems

In recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. The synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. A particular evolutionary algorithm (EA) is differential evolution (DE). As for any EA, DE algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. In this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of DE ...

A non-commutative and non-idempotent theory of quantale sets

In fuzzy set theory non-idempotency arises when the conjunction is interpreted by arbitrary t-norms. There are many instances in mathematics where set theory ought to be non-commutative and/or non-idempotent. The purpose of this paper is to combine both ideas and to present a theory of non-commutative and non-idempotent quantale sets (among other things, standard concepts like fuzzy preorders a...

Review and Classification of Modeling Approaches of Soil Hydrology Processes

To use soil hydrology processe (SHP) models, which have increasingly extended during the last years, comprehensive knowledge about these models and their modeling approaches seems to be necessary. The modeling approaches can be categorized as either classical or non-classical. Classical approaches mainly model the SHP through solving the general unsaturated flow (Richards) equation, numerically...
