We generalize the concept of bags by introducing the notion of n k -bags with membership functions ranging in P~N !, the power set of positive integers. Consequently, a number of operations on n k -bags are defined and some characterizations are done.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
