Fixed point theorems for fuzzy mappings and applications to ordinary fuzzy differential equations
2014
Abstract Ran and Reurings (Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 132(5):1435-1443, 2004) proved an analog of the Banach contraction principle in metric spaces endowed with a partial order and discussed some applications to matrix equations. The main novelty in the paper of Ran and Reurings involved combining the ideas in the contraction principle with those in the monotone iterative technique. Motivated by this, we present some common fixed point results for a pair of fuzzy mappings satisfying an almost generalized contractive condition in partially ordered complete metric spaces. Also we give some examples and an application to illustrate our results. MSC:46S40, 47H10, 34A70, 54E50.
Conditioning on MV-algebras and additive measures —I
1997
Abstract We present a lattice-ordered semigroup approach for the foundation of conditional events which covers the special situations where the underlying (unconditional) events are Boolean or fuzzy, respectively. Our proposal is quite different from other, ring theoretical, approaches. The problem of extending additivity of uncertainty measures from unconditional to conditional events will be discussed.
Fuzzy Relational Mathematical Morphology: Erosion and Dilation
2020
In the recent years, the subject if fuzzy mathematical morphology entered the field of interest of many researchers. In our recent paper [23], we have developed the basis of the (unstructured) L-fuzzy relation mathematical morphology where L is a quantale. In this paper we extend it to the structured case. We introduce structured L-fuzzy relational erosion and dilation operators, study their basic properties, show that under some conditions these operators are dual and form an adjunction pair. Basing on the topological interpretation of these operators, we introduce the category of L-fuzzy relational morphological spaces and their continuous transformations.
Weakly algebraizable logics
2000
AbstractIn the paper we study the class of weakly algebraizable logics, characterized by the monotonicity and injectivity of the Leibniz operator on the theories of the logic. This class forms a new level in the non-linear hierarchy of protoalgebraic logics.
On the Measure of Many-Level Fuzzy Rough Approximation for L-Fuzzy Sets
2019
We introduce a many-level version of L-fuzzy rough approximation operators and define measures of approximation obtained by such operators. In a certain sense, theses measures characterize the quality of the resulting approximation. We study properties of such measures and give a topological interpretation of the obtained results.
On spline methods of approximation under L-fuzzy information
2011
This work is closely related to our previous papers on algorithms of approximation under L-fuzzy information. In the classical theory of approximation central algorithms were worked out on the basis of usual, that is crisp splines. We describe central methods for solution of linear problems with balanced L-fuzzy information and develop the concept of L-fuzzy splines.
Agent-Oriented Captology for Anthropocentric Systems
2001
Abstract Considering that anthropo centric systems are an adequate domain for captological approaches, and that interface agents are most natural interactants for the humans involved, the paper presents a broad-spectrum generic architectural framework to support developing flexible interfaces for industrial applications, based on synergetic correlation between persuasive technologies and polymorphic agents. The design space for agent-oriented captology is defined and several of its main dimensions are elaborated upon. The main mechanisms used are dynamic priorities, "flexible cloning" and fuzzy temporal windows. Some agent-oriented test-bench applications instantiating the generic architect…
Direct adaptive tracking control for a class of pure-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems based on fuzzy-approximation
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Abstract and Applied Analysis. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/462468 Open Access The problem of fuzzy-based direct adaptive tracking control is considered for a class of pure-feedback stochastic nonlinear systems. During the controller design, fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the packaged unknown nonlinearities, and then a novel direct adaptive controller is constructed via backstepping technique. It is shown that the proposed controller guarantees that all the signals in the closed-loop system are bounded in probability and the tracking error eventually converges to a small neighborhood around …
Fuzzy C-Means Segmentation on Brain MR Slices Corrupted by RF-Inhomogeneity
2007
Brain MR Images corrupted by RF-Inhomogeneity exhibit brightness variations in such a way that a standard Fuzzy C-Means (fcm) segmentation algorithm fails. As a consequence, modified versions of the algorithm can be found in literature, which take into account the artifact. In this work we show that the application of a suitable pre-processing algorithm, already presented by the authors, followed by a standard fcm segmentation achieves good results also. The experimental results ones are compared with those obtained using SPM5, which can be considered the state of the art algorithm oriented to brain segmentation and bias removal.
Fuzzy tuning systems: the mathematics of musicians
2005
We present some mathematical properties which determine tuning methods. We introduce the concept of fuzzy tuning systems and we analyze four of the systems coexisting within the current orchestras: Pythagorean, Just Intonation, Holder's and Equal Temperament systems. We show that the theoretical and practical tuning methods are the same. We introduce the idea of compatibility between tuning systems and we give some sufficient conditions to determine an appropriate number of notes into which the octave must be divided.
