LindstrΓΆm (Theoria, 1966; 32:186-195) introduced a very powerful notion of quantifiers, which permits multiplace quantification and the simultaneous binding of several variables. "Branching" quantification was found to be useful by linguists, e.g., for modeling reciprocal constructions like "Most me
This paper describes a classification of semi-fuzzy quantifiers that considerably improves the division between what Zadeh calls quantifiers of the first kind and those of the second kind. A number of cases are contemplated that are not habitually described in the literature on fuzzy quantification
A "softening" of the hard Boolean scheme for information retrieval is presented. In this approach, information retrieval is seen as a multicriteria decision-making activity in which the criteria to be satisfied by the potential solutions, i.e., the archived documents, are the requirements expressed
We define in an axiomatic way scalar and fuzzy cardinalities of finite multisets over ]0, 1], and we obtain explicit descriptions for them. We show that, for multisets over ]0, 1] associated to finite fuzzy sets, the cardinalities defined in this study are equivalent to the cardinalities of the corr
