Dealing with Similarity Relations in Fuzzy Ontologies
2007
IEEE International Fuzzy Systems conference proceedings
Crisp ontologies become less suitable in all domains in which the concepts to be represented have vague, uncertain and imprecise definitions. ...
The latter approach needs to be dealt with differently in crisp and fuzzy ontologies. This is the scope of this paper. ...
The conjunction, disjunction and negation of fuzzy sets can be easily applied to the interpretation of fuzzy concepts. ...

A model based on linguistic 2-tuples for dealing with multigranular hierarchical linguistic contexts in multi-expert decision-making
2001
IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics Part B (Cybernetics)

Information Gathering on the Internet Using a Distributed Intelligent Agent Model with Multi-Granular Linguistic Information
[chapter]
2004
Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing
The use of the linguistic information provides a more flexibility in the communication among agents and between agents and users. ...
The great variety of representations of the information in Internet is the main obstacle to this communication. ...
In Section 2 we present a short review of the fuzzy linguistic approach, of the 2-tuple fuzzy linguistic representation model and of the hierarchical linguistic contexts. ...
