✦ Synopsis


In this paper, we study the semantics of fuzzy sets. We show that fuzzy sets can be interpreted as the aggregation of a set of observations. We formalize this interpretation by means of the OWA and the WOWA operators. The introduction of the WOWA operator allows the user to weigh each observation.

In many applications of fuzzy logic it is of special interest to have a transfer function with good properties regarding differentiability. To that end it is desirable to have continuously differentiable membership functions with only few parameters. In this paper we propose a class of symmetrical a

In almost every work on fuzzy sets, the existence of membership functions taking part in the considered model is assumed and it is not studied in depth whether or not such functions exist. On the other hand, generally the relationship between a certain studied characteristic and its referential set

Complex fuzzy sets utilize a complex degree of membership, represented in polar coordinates, which is a combination of a degree of membership in a fuzzy set along with a crisp phase value that denotes position within the set. The compound value carries more information than a traditional fuzzy set a
