Connectives and quantifiers in fuzzy sets (Q2277256)

It is a very important problem, how to select appropriate operators for implementing the union and intersection of fuzzy sets. This depends on a number of criteria for the selection. This paper discusses the problem based on extension principles and provides a structure for aggregating linguistic variables in the theory of approximate reasoning. I feel that the paper is of value for applications in many fields such as expert systems, linguistic summarizers, syllogistic reasoning and multi-criteria decision-making.
