A Possible Worlds Interpretation of Label Semantics

Jonathan Lawry, Van‐Nam Huynh · WORLD SCIENTIFIC eBooks · 2008

The label semantics linguistic representation framework is introduced as an alternative approach to computing and modelling with words, based on the concept of appropriateness rather than graded truth. A possible worlds interpretation of label semantics is then proposed. In this model it is shown that certain assumptions about the underlying possible worlds can result in appropriateness measures that correspond to well known t-norms and t-conorms for conjunctions and disjunctions of linguistic labels.
