Book Description
Document in the subject Mathematics - General, Basics, , language: English, abstract: Chapter 1: In this chapter a brief literature survey on measures of entropy and divergence measures is presented. It also outlines the basic concepts of fuzzy sets. A brief review on fuzzy information measures and fuzzy directed divergence are given here. The concept of multiple criteria decision making problem is also presented. In addition, a general overview of coding theory is given and summarizes the objectives with an overview of the work reported in later chapters. Chapter 2: In Chapter 2 after reviewing some literature on measures of information for fuzzy sets, a new generalized fuzzy information measure involving two parameters of order α and type β has been introduced. The necessary properties of the proposed measure have been verified. Further, the monotonic nature of generalized fuzzy information measure with respect to the parameters is studied and the validity of the same is verified by constructing the computed tables and plots on taking different values of the parameters. Chapter 3: Divergence is an important measure in information theory as well as in fuzzy set theory which has widely used by researchers in many application areas. Generalized divergence measures provide flexibility to the users and enhance their applicability range. This chapter proposes a new generalized fuzzy divergence measure. It may be remarked that the strength of a measure lies in its properties. The new measure has important properties proved in this chapter to enhance the employability of this measure. Special cases are also discussed for providing particular results. Chapter 3 deals with the introduction of a new generalized measure of fuzzy directed divergence involving two real parameters. The proposed measure satisfies all the necessary properties of being a measure. Some additional properties of the proposed measure have also been studied. Further, the monotonic nature of generalized fuzzy directed divergence measure with respect to the parameters is studied and validity of the same is checked by constructing the computed tables and plots on taking different fuzzy sets and different values of the parameters. Corresponding measures of total ambiguity and fuzzy information improvement have also been defined and studied.

Fuzzy Set Theory

Pages : 264
Book Description
Fuzzy Set Theory: Foundations and Applications serves as a simple introduction to basic elements of fuzzy set theory. The emphasis is on a conceptual rather than a theoretical presentation of the material. Fuzzy Set Theory also contains an overview of the corresponding elements of classical set theory - including basic ideas of classical relations - as well as an overview of classical logic. Because the inclusion of background material in these classical foundations provides a self-contained course of study, students from many different academic backgrounds will have access to this important new theory.

Fuzzy Set Theory
Author: R. Lowen
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401587418
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 415
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to provide the reader who is interested in applications of fuzzy set theory, in the first place with a text to which he or she can refer for the basic theoretical ideas, concepts and techniques in this field and in the second place with a vast and up to date account of the literature. Although there are now many books about fuzzy set theory, and mainly about its applications, e. g. in control theory, there is not really a book available which introduces the elementary theory of fuzzy sets, in what I would like to call "a good degree of generality". To write a book which would treat the entire range of results concerning the basic theoretical concepts in great detail and which would also deal with all possible variants and alternatives of the theory, such as e. g. rough sets and L-fuzzy sets for arbitrary lattices L, with the possibility-probability theories and interpretations, with the foundation of fuzzy set theory via multi-valued logic or via categorical methods and so on, would have been an altogether different project. This book is far more modest in its mathematical content and in its scope.

Fuzzy Set Theory
Author: Michael Smithson
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9780761929864
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
This book introduces fuzzy set theory to social science researchers. Fuzzy sets are categories with blurred boundaries. With classical sets, objects are either in the set or not, but objects can belong partially to more than one fuzzy set at a time. Many concepts in the social sciences have this characteristic, and fuzzy set theory provides methods for systematically dealing with them. A primary reason for not going beyond programmatic statements and rather unsophisticated uses of fuzzy set theory has been the lack of practical methods for combining fuzzy set concepts with statistical methods. This monograph takes that topic as its major focus, and provides explicit guides for researchers who would like to harness fuzzy set concepts while being able to make statistical inferences and test their models. Real examples and data-sets from several disciplines illustrate the techniques and applications, demonstrating how a combination of fuzzy sets and statistics enable researchers to analyze their data in new ways.

Computational Intelligence in Theory and Practice
Author: Bernd Reusch
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783790813579
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Computational Intelligence with its roots in Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks and Evolutionary Algorithms has become an important research and application field in computer science in the last decade. Methodologies from these areas and combinations of them enable users from engineering, business, medicine and many more branches to capture and process vague, incomplete, uncertain and imprecise data and knowledge. Many algorithms and tools have been developed to solve problems in the realms of high and low level control, information processing, diagnostics, decision support, classification, optimisation and many more. This book tries to show the impact and feedback between theory and applications of Computational Intelligence, highlighted on selected examples.

Fuzzy Set Theory — and Its Applications
Author: Hans-Jürgen Zimmermann
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401579490
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
Since its inception 20 years ago the theory of fuzzy sets has advanced in a variety of ways and in many disciplines. Applications of this theory can be found in artificial intelligence, computer science, control engineering, decision theory, expert systems, logic, management science, operations research, pattern recognition, robotics and others. Theoretical advances, too, have been made in many directions, and a gap has arisen between advanced theoretical topics and applications, which often use the theory at a rather elementary level. The primary goal of this book is to close this gap - to provide a textbook for courses in fuzzy set theory and a book that can be used as an introduction. This revised book updates the research agenda, with the chapters of possibility theory, fuzzy logic and approximate reasoning, expert systems and control, decision making and fuzzy set models in operations research being restructured and rewritten. Exercises have been added to almost all chapters and a teacher's manual is available upon request.
