Soft set theory, introduced by Molodtsov [Molodtsov, D. (1999). Soft set theory-first results. Comput. Math. Appl., 37(4-5), 19-31], provides a flexible framework for managing uncertainty and vagueness, addressing limitations in traditional…
The theory of fuzzy sets has a wide range of applications, one of which is that of fuzzy groups . The fuzzy sets were introduced by Zadeh. Even though, the story of fuzzy logic started much earlier, it was specially designed mathematically…
New concepts of rough natural number systems are introduced in this research paper from both formal and less formal perspectives. These are used to improve most rough set-theoretical measures in general Rough Set theory (\textsf{RST}) and…
Rule-based systems are a very popular form of explainable AI, particularly in the fuzzy community, where fuzzy rules are widely used for control and classification problems. However, fuzzy rule-based classifiers struggle to reach bigger…
This paper provides an in-depth review of the optimal design of type-1 and type-2 fuzzy inference systems (FIS) using five well known computational frameworks: genetic-fuzzy systems (GFS), neuro-fuzzy systems (NFS), hierarchical fuzzy…
The growing complexity of machine learning (ML) models in big data analytics, especially in domains such as environmental monitoring, highlights the critical need for interpretability and explainability to promote trust, ethical…
Classical machine learning classifiers tend to be overconfident can be unreliable outside of the laboratory benchmarks. Properly assessing the reliability of the output of the model per sample is instrumental for real-life scenarios where…
Markov Networks are widely used through out computer vision and machine learning. An important subclass are the Associative Markov Networks which are used in a wide variety of applications. For these networks a good approximate minimum cost…
Aiming at the group decision - making problem with multi - objective attributes, this study proposes a group decision - making system that integrates fuzzy inference and Bayesian network. A fuzzy rule base is constructed by combining…
The real world is inherently uncertain, imprecise and vague. Soft set theory was firstly introduced by Molodtsov in 1999 as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties, not clearly defined objects. A soft set consists of two…
Statistical convergence was introduced in connection with problems of series summation. The main idea of the statistical convergence of a sequence l is that the majority of elements from l converge and we do not care what is going on with…
In this book we introduce the plithogenic set (as generalization of crisp, fuzzy, intuitionistic fuzzy, and neutrosophic sets), plithogenic logic (as generalization of classical, fuzzy, intuitionistic fuzzy, and neutrosophic logics),…
In recent years, adaptive learning systems rely increasingly on learning hierarchy to customize the educational logic developed in their courses. Most approaches do not consider that the relationships of prerequisites between the skills are…
In this paper, we mainly construct three types of $L$-fuzzy $\beta$-covering-based rough set models and study the axiom sets, matrix representations and interdependency of these three pairs of $L$-fuzzy $\beta$-covering-based rough…
In 1976, Rauzy studied two complexity functions, $\underline{\beta}$ and $\overline{\beta}$, for infinite sequences over a finite alphabet. The function $\underline{\beta}$ achieves its maximum precisely for Borel normal sequences, while…
This paper aims to present objective methods for constructing new fuzzy sets from known fuzzy or classical sets, defined over the elements of a finite universe's superstructure. The paper proposes rules for assigning membership functions to…
In 1999, Molodtsov \cite{1} developed the idea of soft set theory, proving it to be a flexible mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. Several researchers have extended the framework by combining it with other theories of…
The fuzzy $K$-means problem is a generalization of the classical $K$-means problem to soft clusterings, i.e. clusterings where each points belongs to each cluster to some degree. Although popular in practice, prior to this work the fuzzy…
Fuzzy clustering, which allows an article to belong to multiple clusters with soft membership degrees, plays a vital role in analyzing publication data. This problem can be formulated as a constrained optimization model, where the goal is…
Systems of fuzzy relation equations and inequalities in which an unknown fuzzy relation is on the one side of the equation or inequality are linear systems. They are the most studied ones, and a vast literature on linear systems focuses on…
