In practice, some special LR fuzzy numbers, like the triangular fuzzy number, the Gaussian fuzzy number and the Cauchy fuzzy number, are widely used in many areas to deal with various vague information. With regard to these special LR fuzzy numbers, called regular LR fuzzy numbers in this paper, an operational law is proposed for fuzzy arithmetic, providing a novel approach to analytically and ...

The paper presents a general method of imposing constraints in formal concept analysis of tabular data with fuzzy attributes. The constraints represent a user-defined requirements which are supplied along with the input data table. The main effect is to filter-out conceptual clusters (outputs of the analysis) which are not compatible with the constraint, in a computationally efficient way. Our ...

By defining a closure operator on effective equivalence relations in a regular category C, it is possible to establish a bijective correspondence between these closure operators and the regular epireflective subcategories of C, on the model of the closure operators on kernels in homological categories [5]. When C is an exact Goursat category [6], this correspondence restricts to a bijection bet...

Right ternary near-rings (RTNR) are generalization of their binary counterpart and fuzzy soft sets are generalization of soft sets which are parameterized family of subsets of a universal set. In this paper fuzzy soft Nsubgroups, quasi-ideals and bi-ideals over a right ternary near-ring N are defined. The substructures N-subgroups, quasi-ideals and bi-ideals of an RTNR are characterized in term...

We introduce a new topological semantics for belief logics in which the belief modality is interpreted as the interior of the closure of the interior operator. We show that the system wKD45, a weakened version of KD45, is sound and complete w.r.t. the class of all topological spaces. Moreover, we point out a problem regarding updates on extremally disconnected spaces that appears in the setting...

in this paper we will generalize  some of known results on the tight closure of an ideal to the tight closure of an ideal relative to a module .

This paper is devoted to the study of nondeterministic closure automata, that is, nondeterministic finite automata (nfas) equipped with a strict closure operator on the set of states and continuous transition structure. We prove that for each regular language L there is a unique minimal nondeterministic closure automaton whose underlying nfa accepts L. Here minimality means no proper sub or quo...

Covering-based rough set theory is a useful tool to deal with inexact, uncertain or vague knowledge in information systems. Topology, one of the most important subjects in mathematics, provides mathematical tools and interesting topics in studying information systems and rough sets. In this paper, we present the topological characterizations to three types of covering approximation operators. F...

— The opérations of homomorphic repHcation and substitution are strongly independent forfull semiAFLs in the sense that if ££ is afull semiAFL closed under neither homomorphic repHcation nor substitution, then the closure of ^ under homomorphic repHcation («&,(&)) is incomparable with the closure of <£ under substitution {Jta(<£)). The leastfull AFL containing afull semiAFL ££ and closed under ...
