In this paper we have characterized the epimorphisms in the full subcategory of Hausdorff fuzzy topological spaces (introduced by Srivastava et al.[10]) of the category FTS of fuzzy topological spaces and fuzzy continuous functions using the Salbanytype closure operator.

In this note by considering a complete lattice L, we define thenotion of an L-Fuzzy hyperrelation on a given non-empty set X. Then wedefine the concepts of (POM)L-Fuzzy graph, hypergraph and subhypergroupand obtain some related results. In particular we construct the categories ofthe above mentioned notions, and give a (full and faithful) functor form thecategory of (POM)L-Fuzzy subhypergroups ...

An adaptive-resonance theory (ART)-based fuzzy controller is presented for the adaptive navigation of a quadruped robot in cluttered environments, by incorporating the capability of ART in stable category recognition into fuzzy-logic control for selecting the adequate rule base. The environment category and the navigation mechanism are first described for the quadruped robot. The ART-based fuzz...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of {bf K}-flat projective fuzzy quantales, and give an elementary characterization in terms of a fuzzy binary relation on the fuzzy quantale. Moreover, we  prove that {bf K}-flat projective fuzzy quantales are precisely the coalgebras for a certain comonad on the category of fuzzy quantales. Finally, we present two special cases of {bf K} as examples.

An essential component of soil mapping is classification, a process of assigning spatial soil entities to predefined categories (classes). However, by their nature soils exist as a continuum both in the spatial and attribute domains and often cannot be fitted into discrete categories without introducing errors or at least over-simplification. One approach to mitigate this problem in digital soi...

Based on the notion of $Q$-sup-lattices (a fuzzy counterpart of complete join-semilattices valuated in a commutative quantale), we present the concept of $Q$-sup-algebras -- $Q$-sup-lattices endowed with a collection of finitary operations compatible with the fuzzy joins. Similarly to the crisp case investigated in cite{zhang-laan}, we characterize their subalgebras and quotients, and following...

In this paper, the denition of net-theoretical L-generalized convergencespaces is proposed. It is shown that, for L a frame, the category ofenriched L-fuzzy topological spaces can be embedded in that of L-generalizedconvergence spaces as a reective subcategory and the latter is a cartesianclosedtopological category.

We introduce and discuss a notion of fuzzy uniform structure that provides a direct link with the classical theory of uniform spaces. More exactly, for each continuous t-norm we prove that the category of all fuzzy uniform spaces in our sense (and fuzzy uniformly continuous mappings) is isomorphic to the category of uniform spaces (and uniformly continuous mappings) by means of a covariant func...

The present paper has been an attempt to investigate the general fuzzy automata on the basis of complete residuated lattice-valued ($L$-GFAs). The study has been chiefly inspired from the work by Mockor cite{15, 16, 17}. Regarding this, the categorical issue of $L$-GFAs has been studied in more details. The main issues addressed in this research include: (1) investigating the relationship betwe...
