Evolution in time of L-fuzzy context sequences

Abstract

In this work, we consider a complete lattice L and we study L-fuzzy context sequences which represent the evolution in time of an L-fuzzy context. To carry out this study, in the first part of the paper, we consider n-ary OWA operators in complete lattices, which enable us to make a general analysis and a temporal analysis at any moment in time of L-fuzzy context sequences. After that, evolution in time of the relationship between the objects and the attributes is considered. In particular, we analyze the concepts of Trend and Persistent formal contexts. Finally, we illustrate our results with an example where we consider the particular lattice L = J ([0, 1]).

Description of sup- and inf-preserving aggregation functions via families of clusters in data tables

“…Then f and g are both monotone and they satisfy x ≤ g(f (x)) and f (g(y)) ≤ y for all x ∈ P and y ∈ Q. Indeed, from (1) we easily obtain that f (x) ≤ f (x) implies x ≤ g(f (x)). Consequently, applying (1) again, the inequality…”

Pointwise aggregation of maps: Its structural functional equation and some applications to social choice theory

“…We are ready now to introduce a result that links pointwise aggregation to invariance properties. 3 Theorem 3. Let X be a set with at least two points and let T : (R X ) n → R X be an n-dimensional aggregation operator.…”

“…Since information fusion appears in almost every application, aggregation has become a crucial technique and it has generated a wide spread research field (see, for example [8,9,15]). From an applied point of view, aggregation functions have also been used for solving real-world problems, for example in fuzzy set theory ( [3,13]) or image processing ( [12,38,26]).…”

Reduction of the size ofL-fuzzy contexts. A tool for differential diagnoses of diseases

“…When the use of both orderings is interesting, WOWA operators [Torra (1998)] can be a good option. We have applied these operators to aggregate values in different situations ; Alcalde et al (2016); Burusco (2014, 2015b)]. Choquet integrals [Grabisch (1995)] are defined as a generalization of the previous ones when not only individual observations but also groups are relevant.…”
