General Systems . GENERALIZED CAPACITIES AND BOOLEAN FUZZY LOGIC

چکیده
We propose an extension principle for fuzzy logic to obtain a Boolean logic able to manage incomplete and partially inconsistent information. Such a logic is strictly related with an extended notion of belief measure. The aim is to give suitable tools to design expert systems able to manage information probabilistic in nature.

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 کاملRepresenting qualitative capacities as families of possibility measures
This paper studies the structure of qualitative capacities, that is, monotonic set-functions, when they range on a finite totally ordered scale equipped with an order-reversing map. These setfunctions correspond to general representations of uncertainty, as well as importance levels of groups of criteria in multiple-criteria decision-making. We show that any capacity or fuzzy measure ranging on...
متن کاملFuzzy Measures and Integrals: Recent Developments
This paper gives a survey of the research done on fuzzy measures and integrals since Sugeno proposed in 1974 the concept of fuzzy measure, with an emphasis on recent results. This field of research lies at the intersection of several independent domains, which makes it very active and attractive, namely, measure theory, theory of aggregation functions, cooperative game theory, combinatorial opt...
متن کاملEntropy of capacities on lattices and set systems
We propose a definition for the entropy of capacities defined on lattices. Classical capacities are monotone set functions and can be seen as a generalization of probability measures. Capacities on lattices address the general case where the family of subsets is not necessarily the Boolean lattice of all subsets. Our definition encompasses the classical definition of Shannon for probability mea...
متن کاملAdaptive Boolean networks and minority games with time-dependent capacities.
In this paper we consider a network of Boolean agents that compete for a limited resource. The agents play the so called generalized minority game where the capacity level is allowed to vary externally. We study the properties of such a system for different values of the mean connectivity K of the network, and show that the system with K=2 shows a high degree of coordination for relatively larg...
