This paper investigates minimal solutions of fuzzy relation inequalities with addition-min composition. It first shows the conditions that an element is a minimal solution of the inequalities, and presents the conditions that the inequalities have a unique minimal solution. It then proves that every solution of the inequalities has a minimal one and proposes an algorithm to searching for a minimal solution with computational complexity O (n 2) where n is the number of unknown variables of the inequalities. This paper finally describes all minimal solutions of the inequalities.

Abstract We first show a sufficient and necessary condition that a solution of fuzzy relation inequalities with addition-min composition is a minimal one. We then prove that for every solution of the fuzzy relation inequalities there exists a minimal solution that is less than or equal to the solution in a very different way. We finally give an algorithm to find a minimal solution for a given solution, which is illustrated by numerical examples.

Bipolar abstract argumentation frameworks allow modeling decision problems by defining pro and contra arguments and their relationships. In some popular bipolar frameworks, there is an inherent tendency to favor either attack or support relationships. However, for some applications, it seems sensible to treat attack and support equally. Roughly speaking, turning an attack edge into a support edge, should just invert its meaning. We look at a recently introduced bipolar argumentation semantics and two novel alternatives and discuss their semantical and computational properties. Interestingly, the two novel semantics correspond to stable semantics if no support relations are present and maintain the computational complexity of stable semantics in general bipolar frameworks.

A capacity analysis for generally correlated wireless multi-hop multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channels is presented in this paper. The channel at each hop is spatially correlated, the source symbols are mutually correlated, and the additive Gaussian noises are colored. First, by invoking Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition for the optimality of convex programming, we derive the optimal source symbol covariance for the maximum mutual information between the channel input and the channel output when having the full knowledge of channel at the transmitter. Secondly, we formulate the average mutual information maximization problem when having only the channel statistics at the transmitter. Since this problem is almost impossible to be solved analytically, the numerical interior-point-method is employed to obtain the optimal solution. Furthermore, to reduce the computational complexity, an asymptotic closed-form solution is derived by maximizing an upper bound of the objective function. Simulation results show that the average mutual information obtained by the asymptotic design is very closed to that obtained by the optimal design, while saving a huge computational complexity.
