Comments on “Statistical reasoning with set-valued information: Ontic vs. epistemic view” by Inés Couso and Didier Dubois

I discuss some aspects of the distinction between ontic and epistemic views of sets as representation of imprecise or incomplete information. In particular, I consider its implications on imprecise probability representations: credal sets and sets of desirable gambles. It is emphasized that the interpretation of the same mathematical object can be different depending on the point of view from which this element is considered. In the case of a fuzzy information on a random variable, it is possible to define a possibility distribution on the simplex of probability distributions. I add some comments about the properties of this possibility distribution.

Fuzzy Model of Regional Economic Competitiveness in GIS Spatial Analysis: Case Study of Gansu, Western China

After more than 20 years of impressive development since the economic reforms in 1978, today western China is facing an increasing development gap between its regions, particularly between urban and rural areas. Using the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, this paper aims to demonstrate the evolution of the economic competitiveness levels base on two categories of geographical unity in the province of Gansu located in Northwest China between 2000 and 2004. The results of fuzzy modeling are integrated into GIS spatiotemporal analyses in order to identify the spatial variation of each significant change in terms of the regional economic development. Our research effectively illustrates that there is a particular spatial dynamic of the economic development from region to region. Although the cities have improved very well in their economic competitiveness, the rural areas and minority regions still have a lot of progress to be achieved.     

关于BL-代数的模糊滤子与模糊理想

在BL-代数中引入模糊超滤子和模糊固执滤子的概念,证明了如下条件对于BL-代数的非常数模糊滤子f来说是等价的:(1)f是布尔的和素的,(2)f是蕴涵的和素的,(3)f是超的,(4)f是固执的。应用模糊正蕴涵滤子给出G-代数的若干特征性质。提出BL-代数模糊理想的概念,给出一些重要例子,并通过例子说明在BL-代数中模糊理想一般不能由模糊滤子导出。同时,从模糊理想出发构造了商BL-代数,并建立了相应的同态基本定理。最后,研究了BL-代数的几类模糊理想及其相互关系,给出模糊布尔理想、模糊素理想、模糊超理想的特征性质。

通过对区间直觉模糊数的犹豫区间进行讨论,提出了区间直觉模糊数的新得分函数和精确函数,并讨论新的得分函数具有的性质,在此基础上给出了区间直觉模糊数的一种新的排序方法.进而,结合区间直觉模糊加权平均算子给出了属性值为区间直觉模糊数的多属性决策方法,并通过算例阐明该方法的可行性和有效性.     

一种改进的自适应模糊阈值图象分割方法

自适应模糊阈值图象分割方法的关键和困难在于隶属函数窗宽的自动调整和阈值搜索范围的确定.依靠图象灰度的统计特性初步确定阈值搜索范围，提出了一种改进方法，进而得到隶属函数的窗宽.实验表明这种方法避免了确定图象灰度直方图峰位置的困难，对较低亮度图象分割效果良好.     

TOPSIS for bi-level MODM problems

TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution) is a multiple criteria method to identify solutions from a finite set of alternatives based upon simultaneous minimization of distance from an ideal point and maximization of distance from a nadir point. This paper proposes a fuzzy TOPSIS algorithm to solve bi-level multi-objective decision-making (BL-MODM) problems, and in which the objective function at each level are non-linear functions which are to be maximized. The proposed model for getting the satisfactory solution of the BL-MODM problems includes the membership functions for the upper level decision variables vector with possible tolerances, the membership function of the distance function from the positive ideal solution (PIS) and the membership function of the distance function from the negative ideal solution (NIS). A numerical illustrative example is given to clarify the proposed TOPSIS approach of this paper.
