A Special Class of Fuzzified Normal Forms

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNBI,volume 6840))

Abstract

A fuzzified normal form is obtained when the boolean operators are replaced with a t-norm, t-conorm and fuzzy complement in a boolean normal form. In this paper we present a special class of fuzzified normal forms which has some boolean properties. We can use these properties to design and to simplify the normal forms as in the boolean case. We present some theorems and one application in fuzzy control to justify the selection of fuzzy operators.
