Relational Galois connections between transitive fuzzy digraphs
Fuzzy-directed graphs are often chosen as the data structure to model and implement solutions to several problems in the applied sciences. Galois connections have also shown to be useful both in theoretical and in practical problems. In this paper, the notion of relational Galois connection is extended to be applied between transitive fuzzy directed graphs. In this framework, the components of the connection are crisp relations satisfying certain reasonable properties given in terms of the so-called full powering
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
Controlled Fuzzy Parallel Rewriting
We study a Lindenmayer-like parallel rewriting system to model the growth of filaments (arrays of cells) in which developmental errors may occur. In essence this model is the fuzzy analogue of the derivation-controlled iteration grammar. Under minor assumptions on the family of control languages and on the family of fuzzy languages in the underlying iteration grammar, we show (i) regular control does not provide additional generating power to the model, (ii) the number of fuzzy substitutions in the underlying iteration grammar can be reduced to two, and (iii) the resulting family of fuzzy languages possesses strong closure properties, viz. it is a full hyper-AFFL, i.e., a hyper-algebraically closed full Abstract Family of Fuzzy Languages
