Paraconsistency properties in degree-preserving fuzzy logics

Paraconsistent logics are specially tailored to deal with inconsistency, while fuzzy logics primarily deal with graded truth and vagueness. Aiming to find logics that can handle inconsistency and graded truth at once, in this paper we explore the notion of paraconsistent fuzzy logic. We show that degree-preserving fuzzy logics have paraconsistency features and study them as logics of formal inconsistency. We also consider their expansions with additional negation connectives and first-order formalisms and study their paraconsistency properties. Finally, we compare our approach to other paraconsistent logics in the literature. © 2014, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.All the authors have been partially supported by the FP7 PIRSES-GA-2009-247584 project MaToMUVI.

On Conjectures in t-Norm Based Fuzzy Logics

This paper is a humble homage to EnricTrillas. Following his foundational contributions on models of ordinary reasoning in an algebraic setting, we study here elements of thesemodels, like conjectures and hypothesis, in the logical framework of continuous t-norm based fuzzy logics.We consider notions of consistency, conjecture and hypothesis arising from two natural families of consequence operators definable in these logics, namely the ones corresponding to the so-called truth-preserving and degree-preserving consequence relations. We pay special attention to the particular cases of three prominent fuzzy logics: Gödel, Product and Łukasiewicz logics © 2015 Springer International Publishing Switzerland.This work has been partially supported by the Spanish projects TIN2012-39348-C02-01 and TIN2011-29827-C02-01Peer Reviewe

On similarity in fuzzy description logics

This paper is a contribution to the study of similarity relations between objects represented as attribute-value pairs in Fuzzy Description Logics . For this purpose we use concrete domains in the fuzzy description logic IALCEF(D)IALCEF(D) associated either with a left-continuous or with a finite t-norm. We propose to expand this fuzzy description logic by adding a Similarity Box (SBox) including axioms expressing properties of fuzzy equalities. We also define a global similarity between objects from similarities between the values of each object attribute (local similarities) and we prove that the global similarity defined using a t-norm inherits the usual properties of the local similarities (reflexivity, symmetry or transitivity). We also prove a result relative to global similarities expressing that, in the context of the logic MTL∀, similar objects have similar properties, being these properties expressed by predicate formulas evaluated in these object
