Towards a Proof Theory of G\"odel Modal Logics
Analytic proof calculi are introduced for box and diamond fragments of basic
modal fuzzy logics that combine the Kripke semantics of modal logic K with the
many-valued semantics of G\"odel logic. The calculi are used to establish
completeness and complexity results for these fragments
Theoretical Interpretations and Applications of Radial Basis Function Networks
Medical applications usually used Radial Basis Function Networks just as Artificial Neural Networks. However, RBFNs are Knowledge-Based Networks that can be interpreted in several way: Artificial Neural Networks, Regularization Networks, Support Vector Machines, Wavelet Networks, Fuzzy Controllers, Kernel Estimators, Instanced-Based Learners. A survey of their interpretations and of their corresponding learning algorithms is provided as well as a brief survey on dynamic learning algorithms. RBFNs' interpretations can suggest applications that are particularly interesting in medical domains
Discrete and fuzzy dynamical genetic programming in the XCSF learning classifier system
A number of representation schemes have been presented for use within
learning classifier systems, ranging from binary encodings to neural networks.
This paper presents results from an investigation into using discrete and fuzzy
dynamical system representations within the XCSF learning classifier system. In
particular, asynchronous random Boolean networks are used to represent the
traditional condition-action production system rules in the discrete case and
asynchronous fuzzy logic networks in the continuous-valued case. It is shown
possible to use self-adaptive, open-ended evolution to design an ensemble of
such dynamical systems within XCSF to solve a number of well-known test
problems
Reducing fuzzy answer set programming to model finding in fuzzy logics
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
Linear Time Logics - A Coalgebraic Perspective
We describe a general approach to deriving linear time logics for a wide
variety of state-based, quantitative systems, by modelling the latter as
coalgebras whose type incorporates both branching behaviour and linear
behaviour. Concretely, we define logics whose syntax is determined by the
choice of linear behaviour and whose domain of truth values is determined by
the choice of branching, and we provide two equivalent semantics for them: a
step-wise semantics amenable to automata-based verification, and a path-based
semantics akin to those of standard linear time logics. We also provide a
semantic characterisation of the associated notion of logical equivalence, and
relate it to previously-defined maximal trace semantics for such systems.
Instances of our logics support reasoning about the possibility, likelihood or
minimal cost of exhibiting a given linear time property. We conclude with a
generalisation of the logics, dual in spirit to logics with discounting, which
increases their practical appeal in the context of resource-aware computation
by incorporating a notion of offsetting.Comment: Major revision of previous version: Sections 4 and 5 generalise the
results in the previous version, with new proofs; Section 6 contains new
