Fuzzy technique for microcalcifications clustering in digital mammograms

2012

Abstract Background Mammography has established itself as the most efficient technique for the identification of the pathological breast lesions. Among the various types of lesions, microcalcifications are the most difficult to identify since they are quite small (0.1-1.0 mm) and often poorly contrasted against an images background. Within this context, the Computer Aided Detection (CAD) systems could turn out to be very useful in breast cancer control. Methods In this paper we present a potentially powerful microcalcifications cluster enhancement method applicable to digital mammograms. The segmentation phase employs a form filter, obtained from LoG filter, to overcome the dependence from …

From fuzzy metric spaces to modular metric spaces: a fixed point approach

2017

We propose an intuitive theorem which uses some concepts of auxiliary functions for establishing existence and uniqueness of the fixed point of a self-mapping. First we work in the setting of fuzzy metric spaces in the sense of George and Veeramani, then we deduce some consequences in modular metric spaces. Finally, a sample homotopy result is derived making use of the main theorem.

Fuzzy functions: a fuzzy extension of the category SET and some related categories

2000

<p>In research Works where fuzzy sets are used, mostly certain usual functions are taken as morphisms. On the other hand, the aim of this paper is to fuzzify the concept of a function itself. Namely, a certain class of L-relations F : X x Y -> L is distinguished which could be considered as fuzzy functions from an L-valued set (X,Ex) to an L-valued set (Y,Ey). We study basic properties of these functions, consider some properties of the corresponding category of L-valued sets and fuzzy functions as well as briefly describe some categories related to algebra and topology with fuzzy functions in the role of morphisms.</p>

Quantum Finite Automata and Logics

2006

The connection between measure once quantum finite automata (MO-QFA) and logic is studied in this paper. The language class recognized by MO-QFA is compared to languages described by the first order logics and modular logics. And the equivalence between languages accepted by MO-QFA and languages described by formulas using Lindstrom quantifier is shown.

Best Proximity Point Results in Non-Archimedean Fuzzy Metric Spaces

2013

We consider the problem of finding a best proximity point which achieves the minimum distance between two nonempty sets in a non-Archimedean fuzzy metric space. First we prove the existence and uniqueness of the best proximity point by using di fferent contractive conditions, then we present some examples to support our best proximity point theorems.

A Decomposition Theorem for the Fuzzy Henstock Integral

2012

We study the fuzzy Henstock and the fuzzy McShane integrals for fuzzy-number valued functions. The main purpose of this paper is to establish the following decomposition theorem: a fuzzy-number valued function is fuzzy Henstock integrable if and only if it can be represented as a sum of a fuzzy McShane integrable fuzzy-number valued function and of a fuzzy Henstock integrable fuzzy number valued function generated by a Henstock integrable function.

Impact of common property (E.A.) on fixed point theorems in fuzzy metric spaces

2011

We observe that the notion of common property (E.A.) relaxes the required containment of range of one mapping into the range of other which is utilized to construct the sequence of joint iterates. As a consequence, a multitude of recent fixed point theorems of the existing literature are sharpened and enriched.

Ranking fuzzy interval numbers in the setting of random sets – further results

1999

Abstract We present some new properties of several fuzzy order relations, defined on the set of fuzzy numbers, from among those introduced in [S. Chanas, M. Delgado, J.L. Verdegay, M.A. Vila, Information Sciences 69 (1993) 201–217]. The main result is proving that four from among the relations considered in [S. Chanas, M. Delgado, J.L. Verdegay, M.A. Vila, Information Sciences 69 (1993) 201–217] are strongly transitive (s-transitive).

Fixed point theory for cyclic weak ϕ-contraction in fuzzy metric spaces

2012

In this paper, we introduce cyclic weak $\phi-$contractions in fuzzy metric spaces and utilize the same to prove some results on existence and uniqueness of fixed point in fuzzy metric spaces. Some related results are also proved besides furnishing illustrative examples.

Modello fuzzy di calcolo della distanza di visibilità per il sorpasso su strade extraurbane ad unica carreggiata bidirezionale

2002

Lo studio di modelli teorici che ben rappresentino, nella loro articolazione, le manovre di guida in sede stradale è da sempre un esercizio tanto praticato quanto complesso. La difficoltà di delineare compiutamente tali manovre, di definirne l’interazione cinematica dei veicoli coinvolti è comprovata dalla varietà di modelli presenti in letteratura. Con il presente lavoro ci si propone di pervenire alla formulazione di un modello originale di calcolo della distanza di visibilità per il sorpasso su strade bidirezionali ad unica carreggiata, il quale tenga debitamente conto del coacervo delle variabili cinematiche, meccaniche, geometriche, ambientali e di traffico, così come del comportamento…
