Some applications of possibilistic mean value, variance, covariance and correlation

In 2001 we introduced the notions of possibilistic mean value and variance of fuzzy numbers. In this paper we list some works that use these notions. We shall mention some application areas as wel

Probabilistic clustering algorithms for fuzzy rules decomposition

The fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm is the best known and used method in fuzzy clustering and is generally applied to well defined set of data. In this paper a generalized Probabilistic fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm is proposed and applied to clustering fuzzy sets. This technique leads to a fuzzy partition of the fuzzy rules, one for each cluster, which corresponds to a new set of fuzzy sub-systems. When applied to the clustering of a flat fuzzy system results a set of decomposed sub-systems that will be conveniently linked into a Parallel Collaborative Structures

Clustering algorithms for fuzzy rules decomposition

This paper presents the development, testing and evaluation of generalized Possibilistic fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithms applied to fuzzy sets. Clustering is formulated as a constrained minimization problem, whose solution depends on the constraints imposed on the membership function of the cluster and on the relevance measure of the fuzzy rules. This fuzzy clustering of fuzzy rules leads to a fuzzy partition of the fuzzy rules, one for each cluster, which corresponds to a new set of fuzzy sub-systems. When applied to the clustering of a flat fuzzy system results a set of decomposed sub-systems that will be conveniently linked into a Hierarchical Prioritized Structures
