In this paper the equation I(U1(x,y),z) = U2(I(x,z), I(y,z)) for all x,y,z ∈ [0,1] is solved where I is a residual implication defined from a uninorm U , and U1,U2 are a conjunctive and a disjunctive uninorm, respectively. Three cases are considered: i) when U is a t-norm, ii) when U1 is a t-norm and/or U2 is a t-conorm, and iii) the general case when the neutral elements of U,U1 and U2 are in ...

We study the residuated basic logic (RBL) of residuated basic algebra in which the basic implication of Visser’s basic propositional logic (BPL) is interpreted as the right residual of a non-associative binary operator · (product). We develop an algebraic system SRBL of residuated basic algebra by which we show that RBL is a conservative extension of BPL. We present the sequent formalization LR...

Performance of 129 schizophrenics attending the Occupational Therapy Ce'ntre at NIMHANS, Bangalore as day boarders has been assessed on a 5 point scale, and by Griffiths Work behaviour assessment scale and correlated with various demographic and clinical characteristics.Those unemployed earlier had significantly (P < .005) poorer work performance. Poor social support (P < .05) and presence of r...

INTRODUCTION The contribution of Gap junction beta-2 protein (GJB2) to the genetic load of deafness and its mutation spectra vary among different ethnic groups. OBJECTIVE In this study, the mutation spectrum and audiologic features of patients with GJB2 mutations were evaluated with a specific focus on residual hearing. METHODS An initial cohort of 588 subjects from 304 families with varyin...

In many classification problems, overlapping classes and outliers can significantly decrease a classifier performance. In this paper, we introduce the possibility of a given classifier to reject patterns either for ambiguity or for distance. From a set of typicality degrees for a pattern to be classified, we propose to use fuzzy implications to quantify the similarity of the degrees. A class-se...

Abstract Background Compared with stable angina, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) phenotype is related the elevated inflammatory activity. However, time-dependent change of level and its prognostic implication has not been fully understood according to disease entity. Methods We enrolled total 4,263 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) serial measurement high-sensiti...
