To some extent, the usage of a great number of fuzzy expressions in news reporting reflects the property of reporter as functional entity. On different occasions, reporters, when reporting news, may play such three kinds of roles as the first information source, the second information source or the virtual interpreter. The different roles-playing determines the pragmatic intention of fuzzy language in news reporting.展开更多

Then an important new algorithm which would calculate the minimal FGA is given. The new algorithm is composed of two parts： the first is called E-reduction which contracts equivalent states, and the second is called RE-reduction which removes retrievable states. Finally an example is given to illuminate the algorithm of minimization.展开更多

The paper presents an approach to modeling the capability requirements with the fuzzy unified modeling language （UML） and building domain ontologies with fuzzy description logic （DL）. The UML modeling constructs are extended according to the meta model of Depart- ment of Defense Architecture Framework to improve their domain applicability, the fuzzy modeling mechanism is introduced to model the fuzzy efficiency features of capabilities, and the capability requirement models are converted into ontologies formalized in fuzzy DL so that the model consistency and reasonability can be checked with a DL reasoning system. Finally, a case study of C41SR capability requirements model checking is provided to demonstrate the availability and applicability of the method.展开更多

In this paper we give several different formulations of fuzzy Turing machine, which correspond to nondeterministic fuzzy Turing machine using max-＊ composition for some t-norm＊ （or NFTM＊, for short）, nondeterministic fuzzy Turing machine （or NFTM）, deterministic fuzzy Turing machine （or DFTM）, and multi-tape versions of fuzzy Turing machines. Some distinct results compared to those of ordinary Turing machines are obtained. First, it is shown that NFTM＊, NFTM, and DFTM are not necessarily equivalent in the power of recognizing fuzzy languages if the t-norm＊ does not satisfy finite generated condition, but are equivalent in the approximation sense. That is to say, we can approximate an NFTM＊ by some NFTM with any given accuracy; the related constructions are also presented. The level characterization of fuzzy recursively enumerable languages and fuzzy recursive languages are exploited by ordinary r.e. languages and recursive languages. Second, we show that universal fuzzy Turing machine exists in the approximated sense. There is a universal fuzzy Turing machine that can simulate any NFTM＊ on it with a given accuracy.展开更多

However, classical description logics are limited when dealing with imprecise concepts and roles, thus providing the motivation for this work. In this paper, we present a type-2 fuzzy attributive concept language with complements （ALC） and provide its knowledge representation and reasoning algorithms. We also propose type-2 fuzzy web ontology language （OWL） to build a fuzzy ontology based on type- 2 fuzzy ALC and analyze the soundness, completeness, and complexity of the reasoning algorithms. Compared to type-1 fuzzy ALC, type-2 fuzzy ALC can describe imprecise knowledge more meticulously by using the membership degree interval. We implement a semantic search engine based on type-2 fuzzy ALC and carry out experiments on real data to test its performance. The results show that the type-2 fuzzy ALC can improve the precision and increase the number of relevant hits for imprecise information searches.展开更多
