    Pre-aggregation functions: construction and an application
    (IEEE, 2015) Lucca, Giancarlo; Sanz Delgado, José Antonio; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; 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.

    Neuro-inspired edge feature fusion using Choquet integrals

    It is known that the human visual system performs a hierarchical information process in which early vision cues (or primitives) are fused in the visual cortex to compose complex shapes and descriptors. While different aspects of the process have been extensively studied, such as lens adaptation or feature detection, some other aspects, such as feature fusion, have been mostly left aside. In this work, we elaborate on the fusion of early vision primitives using generalizations of the Choquet integral, and novel aggregation operators that have been extensively studied in recent years. We propose to use generalizations of the Choquet integral to sensibly fuse elementary edge cues, in an attempt to model the behaviour of neurons in the early visual cortex. Our proposal leads to a fully-framed edge detection algorithm whose performance is put to the test in state-of-the-art edge detection datasets.

    d-XC integrals: on the generalization of the expanded form of the Choquet integral by restricted dissimilarity functions and their applications
    (IEEE, 2022) Wieczynski, Jonata; Fumanal Idocin, Javier; Lucca, Giancarlo; Borges, Eduardo N.; Da Cruz Asmus, Tiago; Emmendorfer, Leonardo R.; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika
    Restricted dissimilarity functions (RDFs) were introduced to overcome problems resulting from the adoption of the standard difference. Based on those RDFs, Bustince et al. introduced a generalization of the Choquet integral (CI), called d-Choquet integral, where the authors replaced standard differences with RDFs, providing interesting theoretical results. Motivated by such worthy properties, joint with the excellent performance in applications of other generalizations of the CI (using its expanded form, mainly), this paper introduces a generalization of the expanded form of the standard Choquet integral (X-CI) based on RDFs, which we named d-XC integrals. We present not only relevant theoretical results but also two examples of applications. We apply d-XC integrals in two problems in decision making, namely a supplier selection problem (which is a multi-criteria decision making problem) and a classification problem in signal processing, based on motor-imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI). We found that two d-XC integrals provided better results when compared to the original CI in the supplier selection problem. Besides that, one of the d-XC integrals performed better than any previous MI-BCI results obtained with this framework in the considered signal processing problem.

    Application of the Sugeno integral in fuzzy rule-based classification
    (Elsevier, 2024-09-27) Wieczynski, Jonata; Lucca, Giancarlo; Borges, Eduardo N.; Urío Larrea, Asier; López Molina, Carlos; Bustince Sola, Humberto; Pereira Dimuro, Graçaliz; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    Fuzzy Rule-Based Classification System (FRBCS) is a well-known technique to deal with classification problems. Recent studies have considered the usage of the Choquet integral and its generalizations (e.g.: 𝐶𝑇 -integral, 𝐶𝐹 - Integral and 𝐶𝐶-integral) to enhance the performance of such systems. Such fuzzy integrals were applied to the Fuzzy Reasoning Method (FRM) to aggregate the fired fuzzy rules when classifying new data. However, the Sugeno integral, another well-known aggregation operator, obtained good results in other applications, such as brain–computer interfaces. These facts led to the present study, in which we consider the Sugeno integral in classification problems. That is, the Sugeno integral is applied in the FRM of a widely used FRBCS, and its performance is analyzed over 33 different datasets from the literature, also considering different fuzzy measures. To show the efficiency of this new approach, the results obtained are also compared with previous studies that involved the application of different aggregation functions. Finally, we perform a statistical analysis of the application.
