Truth degree and falsity degree of intuitionistic fuzzy proposition are two truth values with linguistic hedge. With the concrete logic operation of 6LTV-IP, some special properties are obtained. Then based on (α, β)-complementary literals and (a, β)-similar literals, we propose a soft-resolution method of 6LTV-IP.展开更多

It can be embodied in a backtracking search program for propositional satisfiability problems to make search efficient. The efficiency is gained in two ways:One is to use the algorithm to derive literals so as to overcome the ambiguities in search. The other is to exploit the consequence sets of unbound atoms generated during limited deduction as a heuristic measure for possible choices. The experiments have shown remarkable improvement in reducing search space.展开更多

A limit theorem is obtained, which says that the truth function τ-n induced by truth degrees converges to the integrated truth function τ when n converges to infinite. Hence this limit theorem builds a bridge between the discrete valued Lukasiewicz logic and the continuous valued Lukasiewicz logic. Moreover, the results obtained in the present paper is a natural generalization of the corresponding results obtained in two-valued propositional logic.展开更多

A lot of real problems are effected by a delayed history information. In this paper we investigate some properties of cordial Volterra integral operators influenced by a vanishing delay. It is shown that to replicate all eigenfunctions , or , the vanishing delay must be a proportional delay. For such a linear delay, the spectrum, eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the operators and the existence, uniqueness and solution spaces of solutions are presented. For a nonlinear vanishing delay, we show a necessary and sufficient condition such that the operator is compact, which also yields the existence and uniqueness of solutions to CVIEs with the vanishing delay.展开更多

文摘The concept of truth degrees of formulas in Lukasiewicz n-valued propositional logic Ln is proposed. A limit theorem is obtained, which says that the truth function τ-n induced by truth degrees converges to the integrated truth function τ when n converges to infinite. Hence this limit theorem builds a bridge between the discrete valued Lukasiewicz logic and the continuous valued Lukasiewicz logic. Moreover, the results obtained in the present paper is a natural generalization of the corresponding results obtained in two-valued propositional logic.
