A T-fuzzy equivalence relation is a fuzzy binary relation on a set X which is reflexive, symmetric and T-transitive for a t-norm T. Recently, Mesiar et al. [R. Mesiar, B. Reusch, H. Thiele, Fuzzy equivalence relations and fuzzy partitions, J. Multi-Valued Logic Soft Comput. 12 (2006) 167–181] have generalised the t-norm T to any general conjunctor C and investigated the minimal assumptions requ...

The paper investigates fuzzy relations on a finite domain in the cutworthy framework, dealing with a new property coming from the information theory. If the domain of a relation is considered to be a table, then a rectangular subset of the domain whose values under this relation are greater than the values of all neighboring fields is called an island. Consequently, the so called rectangular fu...

Most information discovery processes need to understand the reasons of the success of the inference methods or the usability of the new information, which can sometimes be somehow explained with a few useful measures on the premises or on the chosen relations, logics and implications. This chapter presents a state of art on the latest concepts of measure, from the additive measures, to monotone...

Chiclana, Herrera and Herrera-Viedma studied conditions under which the reciprocity property is maintained in the aggregation of reciprocal fuzzy preference relations using the OWA operator guided by a relative linguistic quantifier. In this note, we focus on the reciprocity in the aggregation of fuzzy preference relations (that is, the additive reciprocity is not assumed) using the OWA operato...

This paper, deals with some equivalence relations in fuzzy subgroups. Further the probability of commuting two fuzzy subgroups of some finite abelian groups is defined.

Spatial relations are an important component of image content, that proved to be useful for recognition of individual objects and for image understanding. Indeed, spatial relations provide structural information about the scene, which is often more stable that individual object characteristics, can help disambiguating objects of similar appearance, and is often available as prior knowledge. A t...

We introduce the notion of ideal, prime ideal, lter, fuzzy ideal, fuzzy prime ideal, fuzzy lter of ordered $Gamma$-semiring and study their properties and relations between them. We characterize the prime ideals and lters of ordered $Gamma$-semiring with respect to fuzzy ideals and fuzzy l- ters respectively.

The $L$-fuzzy approximation operator associated with an $L$-fuzzy approximation space $(X,R)$ turns out to be a saturated $L$-fuzzy closure (interior) operator on a set $X$ precisely when the relation $R$ is reflexive and transitive. We investigate the relations between $L$-fuzzy approximation spaces and $L$-(fuzzy) topological spaces.

We present a method for mass proofs of theorems of certain forms in a formal theory of fuzzy relations and classes. The method is based on formal identification of fuzzy classes and inner truth values with certain fuzzy relations, which allows transferring basic properties of sup-T and inf-R compositions to a family of more than 30 composition-related operations, including sup-T and inf-R image...
