Inference with fuzzy granules for computing with words: a practical viewpoint
Santiago Aja‐Fernández, Carlos Alberola‐López · 2004
In this paper we propose an alternative implementation of the concept of fuzzy granule. Granules are defined in terms of the degree of overlap with other granules, as opposed to by assigning (somehow arbitrarily) membership values to each and every point of the university of discourse in which the granule is defined. We believe this alternative definition is much closer to the human way of thinking. Two examples of real world applications illustrate this new definition.
