Data Integration, Approximate Categorisation and Fuzzy Associations

چکیده
The use of hierarchical taxonomies to organise information (or sets of objects) is essential to the semantic web and is also fundamental to many aspects of web 2.0. In most cases, the seemingly crisp granulation of a taxonomy disguises the fact that categories are based on loosely defined concepts which are better modelled by allowing graded membership. Fuzzy categories may also arise when integrating information from multiple sources which do not conform to precisely the same taxonomy definitions. Knowledge of relations between categories can be summarised by association rules. In this paper, we outline a new method to calculate fuzzy confidences for association rules between fuzzy categories from different hierarchies. We illustrate with examples drawn from a system that integrates information from web-based sources. Keywords— fuzzy association rules, fuzzy data mining, fuzzy hierarchies, soft semantic web, mass assignment.

Stabilization of Multirate Sampled-Data Fuzzy Systems Based on an Approximate Discrete-Time Model
This paper studies a stabilization problem for a multirate digital control of fuzzy systems based on the approximately discretized model. In the multirate control scheme, a numerical integration scheme is used to approximately predict the current state from the state measured at the sampling points. It is shown that the multirate digital fuzzy controller stabilizing an approximate discrete-time...
متن کاملDiameter Approximate Best Proximity Pair in Fuzzy Normed Spaces
The main purpose of this paper is to study the approximate best proximity pair of cyclic maps and their diameter in fuzzy normed spaces defined by Bag and Samanta. First, approximate best point proximity points on fuzzy normed linear spaces are defined and four general lemmas are given regarding approximate fixed point and approximate best proximity pair of cyclic maps on fuzzy normed spaces. U...

متن کاملExact and approximate solutions of fuzzy LR linear systems: New algorithms using a least squares model and the ABS approach
We present a methodology for characterization and an approach for computing the solutions of fuzzy linear systems with LR fuzzy variables. As solutions, notions of exact and approximate solutions are considered. We transform the fuzzy linear system into a corresponding linear crisp system and a constrained least squares problem. If the corresponding crisp system is incompatible, then the fuzzy ...
متن کاملUniversal Approximation of Interval-valued Fuzzy Systems Based on Interval-valued Implications
It is firstly proved that the multi-input-single-output (MISO) fuzzy systems based on interval-valued $R$- and $S$-implications can approximate any continuous function defined on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy. A formula to compute the lower upper bounds on the number of interval-valued fuzzy sets needed to achieve a pre-specified approximation accuracy for an arbitrary multivariate con...
