    (IEEE, 2019) Ko, Li-Wei; Lu, Yi-Chen; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Chang, Yu-Cheng; Chang, Yang; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Wang, Yu-Kai; Sanz Delgado, José Antonio; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Lin, Chin-Teng; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas
    Brain–computer interface technologies, such as steady-state visually evoked potential, P300, and motor imagery are methods of communication between the human brain and the external devices. Motor imagery–based brain–computer interfaces are popular because they avoid unnecessary external stimulus. Although feature extraction methods have been illustrated in several machine intelligent systems in motor imagery-based brain–computer interface studies, the performance remains unsatisfactory. There is increasing interest in the use of the fuzzy integrals, the Choquet and Sugeno integrals, that are appropriate for use in applications in which fusion of data must consider possible data interactions. To enhance the classification accuracy of brain-computer interfaces, we adopted fuzzy integrals, after employing the classification method of traditional brain–computer interfaces, to consider possible links between the data. Subsequently, we proposed a novel classification framework called the multimodal fuzzy fusion-based brain-computer interface system. Ten volunteers performed a motor imagery-based brain-computer interface experiment, and we acquired electroencephalography signals simultaneously. The multimodal fuzzy fusion-based brain-computer interface system enhanced performance compared with traditional brain–computer interface systems. Furthermore, when using the motor imagery-relevant electroencephalography frequency alpha and beta bands for the input features, the system achieved the highest accuracy, up to 78.81% and 78.45% with the Choquet and Sugeno integrals, respectively. Herein, we present a novel concept for enhancing brain–computer interface systems that adopts fuzzy integrals, especially in the fusion for classifying brain–computer interface commands.

    Pre-aggregation functions: construction and an application
    (IEEE, 2015) Lucca, Giancarlo; Sanz Delgado, José Antonio; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Callejas Bedregal, Benjamin; Mesiar, Radko; Kolesárová, Anna; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa
    In this work we introduce the notion of preaggregation function. Such a function satisfies the same boundary conditions as an aggregation function, but, instead of requiring monotonicity, only monotonicity along some fixed direction (directional monotonicity) is required. We present some examples of such functions. We propose three different methods to build pre-aggregation functions. We experimentally show that in fuzzy rule-based classification systems, when we use one of these methods, namely, the one based on the use of the Choquet integral replacing the product by other aggregation functions, if we consider the minimum or the Hamacher product t-norms for such construction, we improve the results obtained when applying the fuzzy reasoning methods obtained using two classical averaging operators like the maximum and the Choquet integral.

    Funções de agregação baseadas em integral de Choquet aplicadas em redimensionalização de imagens
    (Universidade Passo Fundo, 2019) Bueno, Jéssica C. S.; Dias, Camila A.; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Borges, Eduardo N.; Botelho, Silvia S. C.; Mattos, Viviane L. D. de; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
    The increasing data volume, coupled with the high complexity of these data, has generated the need to develop increasingly efficient knowledge extraction techniques, both in computational cost and precision. Most of the problems that are addressed by these techniques have complex information to be identified. For this, machine learning methods are used, where these methods use a variety of functions inside the different steps that are employed in their architectures. One of these consists in the use of aggregation functions to resize images. In this context, a study of aggregation functions based on the Choquet integral is presented, where the main feature of Choquet integral, in comparison with other aggregation functions, resides in the fact that it considers, through the fuzzy measure, the interaction between the elements to be aggregated. Thus, an evaluation study of the performance of the standard Choquet integral functions is presented (Choquet integral based on Copula in relation to the maximum and average functions) looking for results that may be better than the usual applied aggregation functions. The results of such comparisons are promising when evaluated through measures of image quality.

    Aggregation functions based on the Choquet integral applied to image resizing

    The rising volume of data and its high complexity has brought the need of developing increasingly efficient knowledge extraction techniques, which demands efficiency both in computational cost and in accuracy. Most of problems that are handled by these techniques has complex information to be identified. So, machine learning methods are frequently used, where a variety of functions can be applied in the different steps that are employed in their architecture. One of them is the use of aggregation functions aiming at resizing images. In this context, we introduce a study of aggregation functions based on the Choquet integral, whose main characteristic in comparison with other aggregation functions is that it considers, through fuzzy measure, the interaction between the elements to be aggregated. Thus, our main goal is to present an evaluation study of the performance of the standard Choquet integral the and copula-based generalization of the Choquet integral in relation to the maximum and mean functions, looking for results that may be better than the aggregation functions commonly applied. The results of such comparisons are promising, when evaluated through image quality metrics.

    T-overlap functions: a generalization of bivariate overlap functions by t-norms
    (Springer, 2018) Zapata, Hugo; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas
    This paper introduces a generalization of overlap functions by extending one of the boundary conditions of its definition. More specifically, instead of requiring that 'the considered function is equal to zero if and only if some of the inputs is equal to zero' , we allow the range in which some t-norm is zero. We call such generalization by a t-overlap function with respect to such t-norm. Then we analyze the main properties of t-overlap function and introduce some construction methods.

    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.

    General overlap functions
    (Elsevier, 2019) Miguel Turullols, Laura de; Gómez, Daniel; Tinguaro, Javier; Montero, Javier; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Sanz, Jose Antonio; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Automática y Computación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa.
    As a generalization of bivariate overlap functions, which measure the degree of overlapping (intersection for non-crisp sets) of n different classes, in this paper we introduce the concept of general overlap functions. We characterize the class of general overlap functions and include some construction methods by means of different aggregation and bivariate overlap functions. Finally, we apply general overlap functions to define a new matching degree in a classification problem. We deduce that the global behavior of these functions is slightly better than some other methods in the literature.

    Improving the performance of fuzzy rule-based classification systems based on a nonaveraging generalization of CC-integrals named C-F1F2-integrals
    (IEEE, 2019) Lucca, Giancarlo; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Fernández Fernández, Francisco Javier; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Callejas Bedregal, Benjamin; Sanz Delgado, José Antonio; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas
    A key component of fuzzy rule-based classification systems (FRBCS) is the fuzzy reasoning method (FRM) since it infers the class predicted for new examples. A crucial stage in any FRM is the way in which the information given by the fired rules during the inference process is aggregated. A widely used FRM is the winning rule, which applies the maximum to accomplish this aggregation. The maximum is an averaging operator, which means that its result is within the range delimited by the minimum and the maximum of the aggregated values. Recently, new averaging operators based on generalizations of the Choquet integral have been proposed to perform this aggregation process. However, the most accurate FRBCSs use the FRM known as additive combination that considers the normalized sum as the aggregation operator, which is nonaveraging. For this reason, this paper is aimed at introducing a new nonaveraging operator named C-F1F2-integral, which is a generalization of the Choquet-like Copula-based integral (CC-integral). C-F1F2-integrals present the desired properties of an aggregation-like operator since they satisfy appropriate boundary conditions and have some kind of increasingness property. We show that C-F1F2 -integrals, when used to cope with classification problems, enhance the results of the previous averaging generalizations of the Choquet integral and provide competitive results (even better) when compared with state-of-the-art FRBCSs.
