    Geometric viewpoint on the quantization of a fuzzy logic

    Get PDF
    Within the Hamiltonian framework, the propositions about a classical physical system are described in the Borel σ-algebra of a symplectic manifold (the phase space) where logical connectives are the standard set operations. Considering the geometric formulation of quantum mechanics we give a description of quantum propositions in terms of fuzzy events in a complex projective space equipped with Kähler structure (the quantum phase space) obtaining a quantized version of a fuzzy logic by deformation of the product t-norm

    Reducing fuzzy answer set programming to model finding in fuzzy logics

    Get PDF
    In recent years, answer set programming (ASP) has been extended to deal with multivalued predicates. The resulting formalisms allow for the modeling of continuous problems as elegantly as ASP allows for the modeling of discrete problems, by combining the stable model semantics underlying ASP with fuzzy logics. However, contrary to the case of classical ASP where many efficient solvers have been constructed, to date there is no efficient fuzzy ASP solver. A well-known technique for classical ASP consists of translating an ASP program P to a propositional theory whose models exactly correspond to the answer sets of P. In this paper, we show how this idea can be extended to fuzzy ASP, paving the way to implement efficient fuzzy ASP solvers that can take advantage of existing fuzzy logic reasoners

    A Fuzzy Logic Programming Environment for Managing Similarity and Truth Degrees

    FASILL (acronym of "Fuzzy Aggregators and Similarity Into a Logic Language") is a fuzzy logic programming language with implicit/explicit truth degree annotations, a great variety of connectives and unification by similarity. FASILL integrates and extends features coming from MALP (Multi-Adjoint Logic Programming, a fuzzy logic language with explicitly annotated rules) and Bousi~Prolog (which uses a weak unification algorithm and is well suited for flexible query answering). Hence, it properly manages similarity and truth degrees in a single framework combining the expressive benefits of both languages. This paper presents the main features and implementations details of FASILL. Along the paper we describe its syntax and operational semantics and we give clues of the implementation of the lattice module and the similarity module, two of the main building blocks of the new programming environment which enriches the FLOPER system developed in our research group.Comment: In Proceedings PROLE 2014, arXiv:1501.0169
