Unified probabilistic foundation for fuzzy simplicial sets in dimensionality reduction.
Fuzzy prediction sets generalize binary predictions to include elements at varying confidence levels.
In this paper, we have tried to apply the concepts of fuzzy sets to Lie groups and its relative concepts. First, we define a fuzzy submanifold after reviewing fuzzy manifold definition. In main section, we defined the Lie group and some its relative concepts such as fuzzy transformation group,…
FSN model improves few-shot learning by generalizing to new tasks.
This paper introduces the concept of kernels on fuzzy sets as a similarity measure for -valued functions, a.k.a. \emph{membership functions of fuzzy sets}. We defined the following classes of kernels: the cross product, the intersection, the non-singleton and the distance-based kernels on fuzzy sets. Applicabili…

A novel weighted feature selection method using fuzzy sets improves classification accuracy and stability.
A deep convolutional fuzzy system (DCFS) on a high-dimensional input space is a multi-layer connection of many low-dimensional fuzzy systems, where the input variables to the low-dimensional fuzzy systems are selected through a moving window across the input spaces of the layers. To design the DCFS based on input-outpu…
We present a new distributed fuzzy partitioning method to reduce the complexity of multi-way fuzzy decision trees in Big Data classification problems. The proposed algorithm builds a fixed number of fuzzy sets for all variables and adjusts their shape and position to the real distribution of training data. A two-step p…
A new fuzzy clustering method using hyperbolic smoothing for large datasets.
In a recent paper [1] we introduced the Fuzzy Bayesian Learning (FBL) paradigm where expert opinions can be encoded in the form of fuzzy rule bases and the hyper-parameters of the fuzzy sets can be learned from data using a Bayesian approach. The present paper extends this work for selecting the most appropriate rule b…

In this paper we use fuzzy systems theory to convert the technical trading rules commonly used by stock practitioners into excess demand functions which are then used to drive the price dynamics. The technical trading rules are recorded in natural languages where fuzzy words and vague expressions abound. In Part I of t…

A new hybrid fuzzy-crisp clustering algorithm addresses imbalanced cluster sizes.
In a context of document co-clustering, we define a new similarity measure which iteratively computes similarity while combining fuzzy sets in a three-partite graph. The fuzzy triadic similarity (FT-Sim) model can deal with uncertainty offers by the fuzzy sets. Moreover, with the development of the Web and the high ava…
General fuzzy min-max (GFMM) neural network is a generalization of fuzzy neural networks formed by hyperbox fuzzy sets for classification and clustering problems.

The future value of a security is described as a random variable. Distribution of this random variable is the formal image of risk uncertainty. On the other side, any present value is defined as a value equivalent to the given future value. This equivalence relationship is a subjective. Thus follows, that present value…

Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy systems are very useful machine learning models for regression problems.

Measuring the similarity of two files is an important task in malware analysis, with fuzzy hash functions being a popular approach. Traditional fuzzy hash functions are data agnostic: they do not learn from a particular dataset how to determine similarity; their behavior is fixed across all datasets. In this paper, we …
