‎This paper deals with one problem that needs to be addressed in the emerging field known under the name computing with perceptions‎. ‎It is the problem of describing‎, ‎approximately‎, ‎a given fuzzy set in natural‎ ‎language‎. ‎This problem has lately been referred to as the problem of retranslation‎. ‎An approaches to ‎dealing with the retranslation problem is discussed in the paper‎, ‎that ...

in this paper we turn the attention to a well developed theory of fuzzy/lin-guis-tic models that are interpretable and, moreover, can be learned from the data.we present four different situations demonstrating both interpretability as well as learning abilities of these models.

This paper describes the architecture, implementation and performance, of a heterogeneous parallel deduction system (HPDS). The HPDS uses multiple deduction components, each of which attempts to find a refutation of the same input set, but using different deduction formats. The components cooperate by distributing clauses they generate to other components. The HPDS has been implemented in Prolo...

Our main purpose in this dissertation is to develop a system to diagnose and indicate solutions to financial health problems of small and medium firms (SMF). Although monitoring and adjusting financial problems play a central role in the firm’s performance, usually SMF face difficulties in these tasks for lacking human resources and for having incapacity to afford a consultant. The closest type...

The research proposes a hybrid knowledge-sharing model, which integrates the concepts of the self-organizing feature map optimization, fuzzy logic control, and hyper-rectangular composite neural networks, to provide 32 rules that suggest performing or not performing foreign construction investment. The database is derived from 520 quarterly financial reports of all listed construction companies...

This paper describes the mathematical basis for a computer language which can be used for representing natural human reasoning with imprecise linguistic information. The approach to doing this employs a collection of abstraction mechanisms which are based on the concept of a linguistic variable first introduced by Zadeh [1975]. The present semantics differs from that of Zadeh, however, in that ...

Deduction modulo and Supernatural deduction are two extentions of predicate logic with computation rules. Whereas the application of computation rules in deduction modulo is transparent, these rules are used to build non-logical deduction rules in Supernatural deduction. In both cases, adding computation rules may jeopardize proof normalization, but various conditions have been given in both ca...
