โฆ Synopsis
Two kinds of fuzziness in attribute values of the fuzzy relational databases can be distinguished: One is that attribute values are possibility distributions, and the other is that there are resemblance relations in attribute domains. The fuzzy relational databases containing these two kinds of fuzziness simultaneously are called extended possibility-based fuzzy relational databases. In this paper, we focus on such fuzzy relational databases. We classify two kinds of fuzzy data redundancies and define their removal. On this basis, we define fuzzy relational operations in relational algebra, which, being similar to the conventional relational databases, are complete and sound. In particular, we investigate fuzzy querying strategies and give the form of fuzzy querying with SQL.

Based on the semantic equivalence degree the formal definitions of fuzzy functional dependencies (FFDs) and fuzzy multivalued dependencies (FMVDs) are first introduced to the fuzzy relational databases, where fuzziness of data appears in attribute values in the form of possibility attributions, as w
In this article, fuzzy set theory uses an extension of the classical logical relational database model. A logical fuzzy relational database model was developed with the aim of manipulating imprecise information and adding deduction capabilities to the database system. The essence of this work is the
There are two aspects of uncertainty: vagueness and ambiguity. This paper proposes IP (Implicit Predicate) to support both vagueness and ambiguity in fuzzy databases by allowing disjunctive fuzzy information. IP is basically a descriptor dedicated to an unknown value which turns out to be ambiguous
