Flexible querying aims at expressing preferences inside queries instead of strict requirements. We consider ordinary relational databases and flexible querying calling on fuzzy sets. The topic of this paper is to define new types of flexible conditions : the ones involving the count operator. The main difficulty is to handle cardinalities of fuzzy sets. keywords : databases, flexible querying, ...

Every individual has their own natural or habitual pattern of gathering and processing information in learning situations. The different environment between school university studies will pose a significant impact on the style students. objectives this study are to analyse most preferred among first-year diploma students Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Perlis Branch compare male female using F...

The fuzzy measure can highlight important information in analyzing component features, patterns, and trends. However, fuzzy densities and interaction effects are usually unknown or uncertain for implications thus making the fuzzy measure limited in applications. This research proposes an extended fuzzy measure to derive the conditional fuzzy densities from dominance-based rough set approach (DR...

This paper concerns the design of a workflow which permits to feed and query a data warehouse opened on the Web, driven by a domain ontology. This data warehouse has been built to enrich local data sources and is composed of data tables extracted from Web documents. We recall the main steps of our semi-automatic method to annotate Web data tables driven by a domain ontology. The output of this ...

In a binary choice voting scenario, voters may have fuzzy preferences but are required to make crisp choices. In order to compare a crisp voting procedure with more general mechanisms of fuzzy preference aggregation, we first focus on the latter. We present a formulation of strategy-proofness in this setting and study its consequences. On one hand, we achieve an axiomatic recommendation of the ...

UCTTP is a NP-hard problem, which must be performed for each semester frequently. The major technique in the presented approach would be analyzing data to resolve uncertainties of lecturers’ preferences and constraints within a department in order to obtain a ranking for each lecturer based on their requirements within a department where it is attempted to increase their satisfaction and develo...

Previously studied fuzzy bipolar conditions of type ”and if possible” are made of a mandatory condition c and an optional condition w. They allow expressing complex preferences of a conjunctive nature. We define in this paper, a new kind of fuzzy bipolar conditions of the form ”or else” which express complex preferences of a disjunctive nature. We show that the ”or else” form can be used as a n...
