One of the most fundamental concepts in fuzzy set theory is the extension principle. It gives a generic way of dealing with fuzzy quantities by extending non-fuzzy mathematical concepts. There are a few examples, including the concept of fuzzy distance between fuzzy sets. The extension approach is then methodically applied to real algebra, with considerable development of fuzzy number operations. These operations are computationally appealing and generalized interval analysis. Although the set of real fuzzy numbers with extended addition or multiplication is no longer a group, it retains many structural qualities. The extension concept is demonstrated to be particularly beneficial for defining set-theoretic operations for higher fuzzy sets. We need some definitions related to our properties before we can create the properties of integration of a crisp real-valued function over a fuzzy interval. It is our goal in this article to develop and demonstrate certain characteristics of a real-valued function over a fuzzy interval in order to broaden the scope of the notion of integration of a real-valued function over a fuzzy interval. Some of these characteristics are linked to the operations of extended addition and extended subtraction, while others are not.

In this paper, we describe interval-based methods for solving constrained fuzzy optimization problems. The class of fuzzy functions we consider for the optimization problems is the set of real-valued functions where one or more parameters/coefficients are fuzzy numbers. The focus of this research is to explore some relationships between fuzzy set theory and interval analysis as it relates to optimization problems.

In this paper I have discussed some basic but very important theories of fuzzy set theory with numerous examples. I have investigated α-sets, operations of fuzzy numbers, on interval fuzzy sets and also on fuzzy mappings. I have introduced S.Bs. class of fuzzy complements with its increasing and decreasing generators .

Fuzzy set theory and also the hypergroups in the sense of Marty are both generalizations of some existing mathematical concepts which are used for modeling many real life situations. The main purpose of this paper is the study of the link between fuzzy sets and fuzzy hypergroups and fuzzy semihypergroups. As a matter of fact, some commutative fuzzy hypergroups and fuzzy semihypergroups have been constructed from fuzzy set and some of their properties were investigated.

Classification in remote sensing is a very difficult procedure, because it involves a lot of steps and data preprocessing. Fuzzy Set Theory plays a very important role in classification problems, because the fuzzy approach can capture the structure of the image. Most concepts are fuzzy in nature. Fuzzy sets allow to deal with uncertain and imprecise data. Many classification problems are formalized by using fuzzy concepts, because crisp classes represent an oversimplification of reality, leading to wrong results of classification. Fuzzy Set Theory is an important mathematical tool to process complex and fuzzy da-ta. This theory is suitable for high resolution remote sensing image classification. Fuzzy sets and fuzzy numbers are used to determine basic probability assignment. Fuzzy numbers are used for detection of the optimal number of clusters in Fuzzy Clustering Methods. Image is modeled as a fuzzy graph, when we represent the dissimilitude between pixels in some classification tasks. Fuzzy sets are also applied in different tasks of processing digital optical images. It was noted, that fuzzy sets play an important role in analysis of results of classification, when different agreement measures between the reference data and final classification are considered. In this work arithmetic operations of fuzzy numbers using alpha-cut method were considered. Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division of fuzzy numbers and square root of fuzzy number were described in this paper. Moreover, it was illustrated examples with different arithmetic operations of fuzzy numbers. Fuzzy Set Theory and fuzzy numbers can be applied for analysis and classification of hyperspectral satellite images, solving ecological tasks, vegetation clas-sification, in remote searching for minerals.

This chapter is devoted to the evaluation of quantified statements which can be found in many applications as decision making, expert systems, or flexible querying of relational databases using fuzzy set theory. Its contribution is to introduce the main techniques to evaluate such statements and to propose a new theoretical background for the evaluation of quantified statements of type “Q X are A” and “Q B X are A.” In this context, quantified statements are interpreted using an arithmetic on gradual numbers from Nf, Zf, and Qf. It is shown that the context of fuzzy numbers provides a framework to unify previous approaches and can be the base for the definition of new approaches.

ABSTRACT Red and blue galaxies are traditionally classified using some specific cuts in colour or other galaxy properties, which are supported by empirical arguments. The vagueness associated with such cuts are likely to introduce a significant contamination in these samples. Fuzzy sets are vague boundary sets that can efficiently capture the classification uncertainty in the absence of any precise boundary. We propose a method for classification of galaxies according to their colours using fuzzy set theory. We use data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to construct a fuzzy set for red galaxies with its members having different degrees of ‘redness’. We show that the fuzzy sets for the blue and green galaxies can be obtained from it using different fuzzy operations. We also explore the possibility of using fuzzy relation to study the relationship between different galaxy properties and discuss its strengths and limitations.

The chapter begins by introducing the important and useful distinction between the research agendas of fuzzy logic in the narrow and the broad senses. The chapter deals with the latter agenda, whose ultimate goal is to employ intuitive fuzzy set theory for emulating commonsense human reasoning in natural language and other unique capabilities of human beings. Restricting to standard fuzzy sets, whose membership degrees are real numbers in the unit interval [0,1], the chapter describes how this broad agenda has become increasingly specific via the gradual development of standard fuzzy set theory and the associated fuzzy logic. An overview of currently recognized nonstandard fuzzy sets, which open various new directions in fuzzy logic, is presented in the last section of this chapter.

AbstractThe relation between the categories of Fuzzy Sets and that of Sheaves is explored and the precise connection between them is explicated. In particular, it is shown that if the notion of fuzzy sets is further fuzzified by making equality (as well as membership) fuzzy, the resultant categories are indeed toposes.

Chu spaces, which derive from the Chu construct of *-autonomous categories, can be used to represent most mathematical structures. Moreover, the logic of Chu spaces is linear logic. Most efforts to incorporate fuzzy set theory into the realm of linear logic are based on the assumption that fuzzy and linear negation are identical operations. We propose an incorporation based on the opposite assumption and we provide an interpretation of some linear connectives. Furthermore, we show that it is possible to represent any fuzzy relational structure as a Chu space by means of the functor G.

AbstractFuzzy set theory is a recently developed field of mathematics, that introduces sets of objects whose boundaries are not sharply defined. Whereas in ordinary Boolean algebra an element is either contained or not contained in a given set, in fuzzy set theory the transition between membership and non-membership is gradual. The theory aims at modelizing situations described in vague or imprecise terms, or situations that are too complex or ill-defined to be analysed by conventional methods. This paper aims at presenting the basic concepts of the theory in an insurance framework. First the basic definitions of fuzzy logic are presented, and applied to provide a flexible definition of a “preferred policyholder” in life insurance. Next, fuzzy decision-making procedures are illustrated by a reinsurance application, and the theory of fuzzy numbers is extended to define fuzzy insurance premiums.
