Vagueness and linguistic analysis
, 2016 AbstractThis chapter serves as an introduction to one of the main empirical phenomena to be analyzed in the monograph and the formal tools that will be used in the analysis. In the first part, the empirical phenomenon known as vagueness in the linguistics and philosophical literatures is presented, and it is outlined why this phenomenon appears so ...

OWA operator of linguistic label vague set and its application
30th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2004. IECON 2004, 2005 This paper forwards an ordered weighted average (OWA) operator of linguistic label vague (LLV) set. The OWA operator evaluates the degrees to which the object described by linguistic label vague set satisfies, docs not satisfy and does not know whether it satisfies or not most individuals of universe.

An Integrated Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Vague Set and Their Linguistic Variables
International Journal of Fuzzy Systems, 2021 Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets and vague sets are two sets that are commonly used in expressing vague and uncertain information. Despite their commonality, these two sets are characterized by different memberships. Interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets are characterized by membership and non-membership with the sum of these memberships ...

Vague linguistic matrix game approach for multi-criteria decision making with uncertain weights
Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, 2013 Vague linguistic numbers are especially adaptive to describe the evaluations of alternatives in multi-criteria decision making. Such description reveals the DM's preference and hesitant degree simultaneously. For handling the uncertainty in setting the weights of criteria, a fuzzy matrix game related with the initial decision matrix is established ...

The Sorites, Linguistic Preconceptions, and the Dual Picture of Vagueness
, 2010 AbstractThis chapter postulates that the extension of a degree adjective is fixed by implicitly accepted non-analytic reference-fixing principles (‘preconceptions’) that combine appeals to paradigmatic cases with generic principles designed to expand the extension of the adjective beyond the paradigmatic range. In regular occasions of use, the paradigm

2010 14th IEEE International Enterprise Distributed Object Computing Conference Workshops, 2010 Ontologies have been successfully employed in applications that require semantic information processing. However, traditional ontologies are less suitable to express fuzzy or vague information, which often occurs in human vocabulary as well as in several application domains.

A Collective Decision Model Involving Vague Concepts and Linguistic Expressions
IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 2008In linguistic collective decision, the main objective is to select the best alternatives using linguistic evaluations provided by multiple experts. This paper presents a collective decision model, which is able to deal with complex linguistic evaluations. In this decision model, the linguistic evaluations are represented by linguistic expressions which

A Linguistic Account of Mereological Vagueness
2014Proponents of linguistic accounts of vagueness generally trace vagueness in mereological claims to imprecision in singular terms. The purpose of this chapter is to develop an alternative linguistic account of vague mereological claims. I propose that vagueness in ordinary mereological claims is typically due, not to imprecision in singular terms, but ...
