Let S be a regular semigroup and let p be a congruence relation on S. The kernel of p, in notation kerp, is the union of the idempotent p-classes. The trace of p, in notation trp, is the restriction of p to the set of idempotents of S. The pair (kerp,trp) is said to be the congruence pair associated with p. Congruence pairs can be characterized abstractly, and it turns out that a congruence is ...

In this paper, we apply the concept of t-norm T to fuzzy structure of B-algebras. The notion of a fuzzy B-subalgebra of B-algebras with respect to t-norm is introduced and several related properties are investigated. The direct product and T -product of T -fuzzy subalgebra of B-algebra is investigated.

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...

To improve the effectiveness of the fuzzy identification, a structure identification method based on moving rate is proposed for T-S fuzzy model. The proposed method is called " T-S modeling (or T-S fuzzy identification method) based on moving rate ". First, to improve the shortcomings of existing fuzzy reasoning methods based on matching degree, the moving rates for s-type, z-type and trapezoi...

This research addresses system reliability analysis using weakest t-norm based approximate intuitionistic fuzzy arithmetic operations, where failure probabilities of all components are represented by different types of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. Due to the incomplete, imprecise, vague and conflicting information about the component of system, the present study evaluates the reliability of sy...

Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy models play an important role in nonlinear control because they can be used to approximate nonlinear systems. Also, for the affine T–S fuzzy models, the local linear sub-system properties can be easily related to the physics of the controlled nonlinear system. This is one advantage of the affine T–S fuzzy models relative to the homogeneous T–S fuzzy models. In the lite...

In this communication, we study decision influence diagrams using fuzzy sets and fuzzy random variables t,o model problems in which assessing real-valued ~t i l i t~ies , and employing real-valued random variables t o model random magnit,udes, are considered to be too restrictive. We propose conditions allowing us to solve decision influence diagrams when uncertainty magnitudes are formalized b...

We introduce the notion of sensible fuzzy ideals of BCK-algebras with respect to a t-conorm and investigate some of their properties. We give the conditions for a sensible fuzzy subalgebra with respect to a t-conorm to be a sensible fuzzy ideal with respect to a t-conorm. Some properties of the direct product and S-product of fuzzy ideals of BCK-algebras with respect to a t-conorm are also disc...
