Optimization with linguistic variables

2003
The aim of this paper is to introduce a novel statement of fuzzy mathematical programming problems and to provide a method for findig a fair solution to these problems. Suppose we are given a mathematical programming problem in which the functional relationship between the decision variables and the objective function is not completely known.

An alternative semantics for linguistic variables

1988
The concept of a linguistic variable, first introduced by Zadeh [5], is here modified and reinterpreted with the aim of producing a computationally more manageable model of natural human reasoning with linguistic imprecision. An important characteristic of the new interpretation is that it establishes the meaning of linguistic terms relative to a ...

On Linguistic Variables and Sparse Representations

2015
Linguistic variables can be seen as dictionaries to represent data. In fields as Signal Processing or Machine Learning is usual to use or to search redundant dictionaries to promote sparse representations. This kind of representations present several interesting properties as a high generalization capacity, simplification and economy, among others.

The variability of linguistic politeness

2023
Politeness is a universal concept present in all languages and cultures. Despite the universality of the general concept of politeness, linguistic politeness is a different concept with its own distinct features related to both language and culture. The aim of this paper is to raise the awareness for the variability of linguistic politeness and its ...

A LINGUISTIC VARIABLE FOR IMPORTANCE OF FUZZY SETS

Journal of Cybernetics, 1980
In this paper we introduce the concept of a linguistic variable for importance. This is done by defining its linguistic values as fuzzy subsets over the set of nonnegative numbers. Furthermore, we show how to modify a fuzzy subset by its importance. That is, if A is a fuzzy subset of X, and / is its importance, then A becomes AI which is also a fuzzy ...

Linguistic Variables Construction in Information Table

2016
Application of attribute-oriented generalization to an information often lead to inconsistent results of rule induction, which can be viewed as generation of fuzziness with partialization of attribute information. This paper focuses on fuzzy linguistic variables and proposes a solution for inconsistencies. The results show that domain ontology may play
