Operador de comparación de elementos multivaluados basado en funciones de equivalencia restringida
(Universidad de Málaga, 2021) Castillo López, Aitor; López Molina, Carlos; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
En este trabajo proponemos un nuevo enfoque del algoritmo de clustering gravitacional basado en lo que Einstein considero su 'mayor error': la constante cosmológica. De manera similar al algoritmo de clustering gravitacional, nuestro enfoque está inspirado en principios y leyes del cosmos, y al igual que ocurre con la teoría de la relatividad de Einstein y la teoría de la gravedad de Newton, nuestro enfoque puede considerarse una generalización del agrupamiento gravitacional, donde, el algoritmo de clustering gravitacional se recupera como caso límite. Además, se desarrollan e implementan algunas mejoras que tienen como objetivo optimizar la cantidad de iteraciones finales, y de esta forma, se reduce el tiempo de ejecución tanto para el algoritmo original como para nuestra versión.

The law of O-conditionality for fuzzy implications constructed from overlap and grouping functions
(Elsevier, 2019) Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Callejas Bedregal, Benjamin; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Pintor Borobia, Jesús María; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Ingeniería
Overlap and grouping functions are special kinds of non necessarily associative aggregation operators proposed for many applications, mainly when the associativity property is not strongly required. The classes of overlap and grouping functions are richer than the classes of t-norms and t-conorms, respectively, concerning some properties like idempotency, homogeneity, and, mainly, the self-closedness feature with respect to the convex sum and the aggregation by generalized composition of overlap/grouping functions. In previous works, we introduced some classes of fuzzy implications derived by overlap and/or grouping functions, namely, the residual implications R-0-implications, the strong implications (G, N)-implications and the Quantum Logic implications QL-implications, for overlap functions O, grouping functions G and fuzzy negations N. Such implications do not necessarily satisfy certain properties, but only weaker versions of these properties, e.g., the exchange principle. However, in general, such properties are not demanded for many applications. In this paper, we analyze the so-called law of O-Conditionality, O(x, 1(x, y)) <= y, for any fuzzy implication I and overlap function O, and, in particular, for Ro-implications, (G, N)-implications, QL-implications and D-implications derived from tuples (O, G, N), the latter also introduced in this paper. We also study the conditional antecedent boundary condition for such fuzzy implications, since we prove that this property, associated to the left ordering property, is important for the analysis of the O-Conditionality. We show that the use of overlap functions to implement de generalized Modus Ponens, as the scheme enabled by the law of O-Conditionality, provides more generality than the laws of T-conditionality and U-conditionality, for t-norms T and uninorms U, respectively.

Strengthened ordered directionally monotone functions. Links between the different notions of monotonicity
(Elsevier, 2019) Sesma Sara, Mikel; Lafuente López, Julio; Roldán López de Hierro, Antonio Francisco; Mesiar, Radko; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas
In this work, we propose a new notion of monotonicity: strengthened ordered directional monotonicity. This generalization of monotonicity is based on directional monotonicity and ordered directional monotonicity, two recent weaker forms of monotonicity. We discuss the relation between those different notions of monotonicity from a theoretical point of view. Additionally, along with the introduction of two families of functions and a study of their connection to the considered monotonicity notions, we define an operation between functions that generalizes the Choquet integral and the Lukasiewicz implication.

An algorithm for group decision making using n -dimensional fuzzy sets, admissible orders and OWA operators
(Elsevier, 2017) Miguel Turullols, Laura de; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Elkano Ilintxeta, Mikel; Asiain Ollo, María José; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Automática y Computación; Matemáticas; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
In this paper we propose an algorithm to solve group decision making problems using n-dimensional fuzzy sets, namely, sets in which the membership degree of each element to the set is given by an in- creasing tuple of n elements. The use of these sets has naturally led us to define admissible orders for n-dimensional fuzzy sets, to present a construction method for those orders and to study OWA operators for aggregating the tuples used to represent the membership degrees of the elements. In these condi- tions, we present an algorithm and apply it to a case study, in which we show that the exploitation phase which appears in many decision making methods can be omitted by just considering linear orders between tuples.

Trend analysis in L-fuzzy contexts with absent values
(University of Sistan and Baluchestan (Irán), 2020) Alcalde, Cristina; Burusco Juandeaburre, Ana; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
Sometimes we have to work with L-fuzzy context sequences where one or more values are missing. These sequences can represent, among other things, the evolution in time of an L-fuzzy context. The studies of tendencies that we have done so far used tools that are not valid when the L-fuzzy context has unknown values. In this work we address such situations and we propose new methods to tackle the problem. Besides, we use the study of tendencies to analyse relations between the objects and the attributes of L-fuzzy contexts and to replace the absent values taking into account the behaviour of the sequence.

Directions of directional, ordered directional and strengthened ordered directional increasingness of linear and ordered linear fusion operators
(IEEE, 2019) Sesma Sara, Mikel; Marco Detchart, Cedric; Lafuente López, Julio; Roldán López de Hierro, Antonio Francisco; Mesiar, Radko; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
In this work we discuss the forms of monotonicity that have been recently introduced to relax the monotonicity condition in the definition of aggregation functions. We focus on directional, ordered directional and strengthened ordered directional monotonicity, study their main properties and provide some results about their links and relations among them. We also present two families of functions, the so-called linear fusion functions and ordered linear fusion functions and we study the set of directions for which these types of functions are directionally, ordered directionally and strengthened ordered directionally increasing. In particular, OWA operators are an example of ordered linear fusion functions.

A fuzzy association rule-based classifier for imbalanced classification problems
(Elsevier, 2021) Sanz Delgado, José Antonio; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
Imbalanced classification problems are attracting the attention of the research community because they are prevalent in real-world problems and they impose extra difficulties for learning methods. Fuzzy rule-based classification systems have been applied to cope with these problems, mostly together with sampling techniques. In this paper, we define a new fuzzy association rule-based classifier, named FARCI, to tackle directly imbalanced classification problems. Our new proposal belongs to the algorithm modification category, since it is constructed on the basis of the state-of-the-art fuzzy classifier FARC–HD. Specifically, we modify its three learning stages, aiming at boosting the number of fuzzy rules of the minority class as well as simplifying them and, for the sake of handling unequal fuzzy rule lengths, we also change the matching degree computation, which is a key step of the inference process and it is also involved in the learning process. In the experimental study, we analyze the effectiveness of each one of the new components in terms of performance, F-score, and rule base size. Moreover, we also show the superiority of the new method when compared versus FARC–HD alongside sampling techniques, another algorithm modification approach, two cost-sensitive methods and an ensemble.

Interval subsethood measures with respect to uncertainty for the interval-valued fuzzy setting

In this paper, the problem of measuring the degree of subsethood in the interval-valued fuzzy setting is addressed. Taking into account the widths of the intervals, two types of interval subsethood measures are proposed. Additionally, their relation and main properties are studied. These developments are made both with respect to the regular partial order of intervals and with respect to admissible orders. Finally, some construction methods of the introduced interval subsethood measures with the use interval-valued aggregation functions are examined.

Type-2 fuzzy entropy-sets
(IEEE, 2017) Miguel Turullols, Laura de; Santos, Helida; Sesma Sara, Mikel; Callejas Bedregal, Benjamin; Jurío Munárriz, Aránzazu; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
The final goal of this study is to adapt the concept of fuzzy entropy of De Luca and Termini to deal with Type-2 Fuzzy Sets. We denote this concept Type-2 Fuzzy Entropy-Set. However, the construction of the notion of entropy measure on an infinite set, such us [0, 1], is not effortless. For this reason, we first introduce the concept of quasi-entropy of a Fuzzy Set on the universe [0, 1]. Furthermore, whenever the membership function of the considered Fuzzy Set in the universe [0, 1] is continuous, we prove that the quasi-entropy of that set is a fuzzy entropy in the sense of De Luca y Termini. Finally, we present an illustrative example where we use Type-2 Fuzzy Entropy-Sets instead of fuzzy entropies in a classical fuzzy algorithm.

A framework for generalized monotonicity of fusion functions
(Elsevier, 2023) Sesma Sara, Mikel; Šeliga, Adam; Boczek, Michał; Jin, LeSheng; Kaluszka, Marek; Kalina, Martin; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Mesiar, Radko; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
The relaxation of the property of monotonicity is a trend in the theory of aggregation and fusion functions and several generalized forms of monotonicity have been introduced, most of which are based on the notion of directional monotonicity. In this paper, we propose a general framework for generalized monotonicity that encompasses the different forms of monotonicity that we can find in the literature. Additionally, we introduce various new forms of monotonicity that are not based on directional monotonicity. Specifically, we introduce dilative monotonicity, which requires that the function increases when the inputs have increased by a common factor, and a general form of monotonicity that is dependent on a function T and a subset of the domain Z. This two new generalized monotonicities are the basis to propose a set of different forms of monotonicity. We study the particularities of each of the new proposals and their links to the previous relaxed forms of monotonicity. We conclude that the introduction of dilative monotonicity complements the conditions of weak monotonicity for fusion functions and that (T,Z)-monotonicity yields a condition that is slightly stronger than weak monotonicity. Finally, we present an application of the introduced notions of monotonicity in sentiment analysis.
