The use of two relations in L-fuzzy contexts

In the analysis of relations among the elements of two sets it is usual to obtain different values depending on the point of view from which these relations are measured. The main goal of the paper is the modelization of these situations by means of a generalization of the L-fuzzy concept analysis called L-fuzzy bicontext. We study the L-fuzzy concepts of these L-fuzzy bicontexts obtaining some interesting results. Specifically, we will be able to classify the biconcepts of the L-fuzzy bicontext. Finally, a practical case is developed using this new tool.This work has been partially supported by the Research Group “Intelligent Systems and Energy (SI+E)” of the Basque Government, under Grant IT677-13, by the Research Groups “Artificial Intelligence and Approximate Reasoning” and “Adquisición de conocimiento y minería de datos, funciones especiales y métodos numéricos avanzados” of the Public University of Navarra and by project TIN2013-40765-P

Agent-Based Product Configuration: towards Generalized Consensus Seeking

This paper will present an evolution of a fuzzy agent based platform which performed products configuration. As a first step, we used the notion of consensus to establish robust results at the end of the configuration process. We implemented the concept of generalized consensus which implied the consideration of consensuses from the beginning, in this way robust data are treated during the entire process and the final result enables the designer to distinguish the robust components and flexible ones in a set of configurations.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures, 5 table
