‎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 ...

while sophisticated analytical methods like morgenstern-price or finite elementmethods are available for more realistic analysis of stability of slopes, assessment of the exactvalues of soil parameters is practically impossible. uncertainty in the soil parameters arisesfrom two different sources: scatter in data and systematic error inherent in the estimate of soilproperties. hence, stability o...

in this study, we introduce and study a concept of distributed fuzzymodeling. fuzzy modeling encountered so far is predominantly of a centralizednature by being focused on the use of a single data set. in contrast to this style ofmodeling, the proposed paradigm of distributed and collaborative modeling isconcerned with distributed models which are constructed in a highly collaborativefashion. i...

In this paper, a new approach is presented to fit arobust fuzzy regression model based on some fuzzy quantities. Inthis approach, we first introduce a new distance between two fuzzynumbers using the kernel function, and then, based on the leastsquares method, the parameters of fuzzy regression model isestimated. The proposed approach has a suitable performance to<b...

We study interior operators and interior structures in a fuzzy setting.We investigate systems of “almost open” fuzzy sets and the relationshipsto fuzzy interior operators and fuzzy interior systems.

Consensus is defined as a cooperative process in which a group of decision makers develops and agrees to support a decision in the best interest of the whole. It is a questioning process, more than an affirming process, in which the group members usually modify their choices until a high level of agreement within the group is achieved. Given the importance of forming an accepted decision by the...

in this note first by considering the notion of general fuzzy automata (for simplicity gfa), we define the notions of direct product, restricted direct product and join of two gfa. also, we introduce some operations on (fuzzy) sets and then prove some related theorems. finally we construct the general fuzzy recognizers and recognizable sets and give the notion of (trim) reversal of a given gfa....

ur aim of this  paper  is  to introduce the concept of $L$-double fuzzy rough sets in whichboth constructive and axiomatic approaches are used. In constructive approach, a pairof $L$-double fuzzy lower (resp. upper) approximation operators is defined  and the basic properties of them  are studied.From the viewpoint of the axiomatic approach, a set of axioms is constructed to characterize the $L...

Contrapositive symmetry (CPS) is a tautology in classical logic. In fuzzy logic, not all fuzzy implications have CPS with respect to a given strong negation. Given a fuzzy implication J , towards imparting contrapositive symmetry to J with respect to a strong negation N two techniques, viz., upper and lower contrapositivisation, have been proposed by Bandler and Kohout [Semantics of implication...
