This tutorial paper has been written for biologists, physicians or beginners in fuzzy sets theory and applications. This field is introduced in the framework of medical diagnosis problems. The paper describes and illustrates with practical examples, a general methodology of special interest in the processing of borderline cases, that allows a graded assignment of diagnoses to patients. A pattern of medical knowledge consists of a tableau with linguistic entries or of fuzzy propositions. Relationships between symptoms and diagnoses are interpreted as labels of fuzzy sets. It is shown how possibility measures (soft matching) can be used and combined to derive diagnoses after measurements on collected data. The concepts and methods are illustrated in a biomedical application on inflammatory protein variations. In the case of poor diagnostic classifications, it is introduced appropriate ponderations, acting on the characterizations of proteins, in order to decrease their relative influence. As a consequence, when pattern matching is achieved, the final ranking of inflammatory syndromes assigned to a given patient might change to better fit the actual classification. Defuzzification of results (i.e. diagnostic groups assigned to patients) is performed as a non fuzzy sets partition issued from a "separating power", and not as the center of gravity method commonly employed in fuzzy control. It is then introduced a model of fuzzy connectionist expert system, in which an artificial neural network is designed to build the knowledge base of an expert system, from training examples (this model can also be used for specifications of rules in fuzzy logic control). Two types of weights are associated with the connections: primary linguistic weights, interpreted as labels of fuzzy sets, and secondary numerical weights. Cell activation is computed through MIN-MAX fuzzy equations of the weights. Learning consists in finding the (numerical) weights and the network topology. This feed forward network is described and illustrated in the same biomedical domain as in the first part.

Human reliability analysis (HRA) is a proactive approach to model and evaluate human systematic errors, and has been extensively applied in various complicated systems. Dependence assessment among human errors plays a key role in the HRA, which relies heavily on the knowledge and experience of experts in real-world cases. Moreover, there are ofthen different types of uncertainty when experts use linguistic labels to evaluate the dependencies between human failure events. In this context, this paper aims to develop a new method based on linguistic hesitant fuzzy sets and the technique for human error rate prediction (THERP) technique to manage the dependence in HRA. This method handles the linguistic assessments given by experts according to the linguistic hesitant fuzzy sets, determines the weights of influential factors by an extended best-worst method, and confirms the degree of dependence between successive actions based on the THERP method. Finally, the effectiveness and practicality of the presented linguistic hesitant fuzzy THERP method are demonstrated through an empirical healthcare dependence analysis.

With the vigorous researches in the character recognition, the need to recognize run-on multilingual handwritten characters is increasing to provide uses with more comfortable PUI(pen user interface) environments. In general, many intermediate word candidates word candidates are generated in run-on multilingual recognition because there is no information of ending position and linguistic kind of character. To remove unnecessary word candidates which are generated in run-on multilingual recognition, we classify them into two groups and select the best candidate among the word candidates in the group where the final characater is completed using 5 attributes. In this research, we propose a method in order to select the best one candidate. It is called WRM (Weighted ranking method). The weights are adaptively trained by LMS(Least mean square) learning rule. Results show that the abilities of decision makin gusing weights are much better than those not using weights.

This study proposes a modified extended cognitive reliability and error analysis method (CREAM) for achieving a more accurate human error probability (HEP) in advanced control rooms. The traditional approach lacks failure data and does not consider the common performance condition (CPC) weights in different cognitive functions. The modified extended CREAM decomposes tasks using a method that combines structured information analysis (SIA) and the extended CREAM. The modified extended CREAM performs the weight analysis of CPCs in different cognitive functions, and the weights include cognitive, correlative, and important weights. We used the extended CREAM to obtain the cognitive weight. We determined the correlative weights of the CPCs for different cognitive functions using the triangular fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (TF-DEMATEL), and evaluated the importance weight of CPCs based on the interval 2-tuple linguistic approach and ensured the value of the importance weight using the entropy method in the different cognitive functions. Finally, we obtained the comprehensive weights of the different cognitive functions and calculated the HEPs. The accuracy and sensitivity of the modified extended CREAM were compared with those of the basic CREAM. The results demonstrate that the modified extended CREAM calculates the HEP more effectively in advanced control rooms.

In this paper, we propose a learning algorithm of fuzzy neural networks with trapezoidal fuzzy weights. This fuzzy neural networks can use fuzzy numbers as well as real numbers, and represent linguistic information better than standard neural networks. We construct trapezodal fuzzy weights by the composition of two triangles, and devise a learning algorithm using the two triangular membership functions, The results of computer simulations on numerical data show that the fuzzy neural networks have high fitting ability for target output.

When we design a product, we need to consider human sensibility for the product. In this study, we developed a technique to measure human sensibility for a product. Because human sensibility for a product is very subjective and fuzzy, it is hard to measure easily. To deal with this difficulty effectively, we used fuzzy-weighted checklist to this problem. The fuzzy- weighted checklist presents a fuzzy version of the weighted checklist technique computerized for evaluating or comparing complex system (or subjects). In this technique, we used pairwise comparison to get the relative weights of wensibility factors. Also, we used linguistic ratings to get the scores of sensibility factors for a product. Then, we synthesize the scores of sensi- bility factors to get fuzzy composite score (and linguistic approximation). If there are several alternatives, we can conduct alternative comparison. Finally, we wrote the program of this technique by Quick Basic software. As an example, this technique applied to car. The results show that we can use this technique effectively to the quantitative evaluation of human sensibility

When a product is designed, it is important to consider its image on consumers. In this study, we developed a technique to measure product image. Because human image of a product is very subjective and fuzzy, it is difficult to measure easily. To deal with this difficulty effectively, we used fuzzy- weighted checklist. The fuzzy-weighted checklist presents a fuzzy version of the weighted checklist technique for evaluating or comparing complex systems or subjects. In this technique, we used a pairwise comparison method to obtain the relative importance weights of image factors. Also, we used linguistic ratings to obtain the scores of image factors for a product. Then, we synthesized the scores of image factors to obtain a fuzzy composite score and its linguistic approximation. The entire procedure of this technique was written in quick Basic. As an example, this techinque is applied to car evaluation. The results show that this technique can be effectively used to the quqntitative evaluation of huamn image.

Association rule mining is an exploratory learning task to discover some hidden dependency relationships among items in transaction data. Quantitative association rules denote association rules with both categorical and quantitative attributes. There have been several works on quantitative association rule mining such as the application of fuzzy techniques to quantitative association rule mining, the generalized association rule mining for quantitative association rules, and importance weight incorporation into association rule mining fer taking into account the users interest. This paper introduces a new method for generalized fuzzy quantitative association rule mining with importance weights. The method uses fuzzy concept hierarchies fer categorical attributes and generalization hierarchies of fuzzy linguistic terms fur quantitative attributes. It enables the users to flexibly perform the association rule mining by controlling the generalization levels for attributes and the importance weights f3r attributes.
