Abstract:

Triangular norms in the study of probabilistic metric spaces as a special kind of associative functions defined on the unit interval. These functions have found applications in many areas since then. In this study, we present new methods for constructing triangular norms and triangular conorms on an arbitrary bounded lattice under some constraints. Also, we give some illustrative examples for the clarity. Finally, we show that our construction methods can be generalized by induction to a modified ordinal sum for triangular norms and triangular conorms on an arbitrary bounded lattice, respectively.

Multi-valued t-Norms and t-Conorms

We present a procedure for constructing multi-valued tnorms and t-conorms. Our construction uses a pair of single-valued t-norms and the pair of dual t-conorms to construct interval-valued t-norms u and t-conorms t. In this manner we can combine desirable characteristics of different t-norms and t-conorms; furthermore if we use the t-norm ∧ and t-conorm ∨, then (X,u,t) is a superlattice, i.e. t...

Strict Archimedean t-norms and t-conorms as universal approximators

In knowledge representation, when we have to use logical connectives, various continuous t-norms and t-conorms are used. In this paper, we show that every continuous t-norm and t-conorm can be approximated, to an arbitrary degree of accuracy, by a strict Archimedean t-norm (t-conorm).

The Construction of Fuzzy-valued t-norms and t-conorms

We are interested in generalizations of the concepts of t-norm and t-conorm. In a companion chapter in this volume [14] we have presented a family of hypert-norms ∧q and a family of hyper-t-conorms ∨p. The prefix hyper is used to indicate multi-valued operations, also known as hyperoperations (see [5, 14]), i.e. operations which map pairs of elements to sets of elements. See [14] for the constr...

A Family of Multi-valued t-norms and t-conorms

Given a lattice (X,≤,∧,∨) we define a multi-valued operation ∧ which is analogous to a t-norm (i.e. it is commutative, associative, has one as a neutral element and is monotone). The operation is parametrized by the set Q, hence we actually obtain an entire family of such multi-valued t-norms. Similarly we define a family of multi-valued t-conorms ∨ . We show that, when P, Q are chosen appropri...

On some properties of mixing OWA operators with t-norms and t-conorms

The OWA operators are traditionally used in the context of decision making as the means to aggregate the satisfaction of single criteria into a overall preference index. They belong to the class of averages, entailing compensatory properties. Differently, t-norms and t-conorms entail the reinforcement property, since there is a kind of interaction between the degree of criteria satisfaction. A ...
