Compound bipolar queries: The case of data with a variable quality
Janusz Kacprzyk, Sławomir Zadrożny · 2017
We further develop our concept of a compound query (cf. Kacprzyk and Zadroižny [23]) in which in a bipolar query comprising of a required and desired condition aggregated via a non-conventional operator corresponding to “and if possible” the particular required and desired conditions are by themselves queries with fuzzy linguistic quantifiers. We use our approach to the dealing with data quality (trustworthiness), originally developed for the queries with fuzzy linguistic quantifiers (cf. Kacprzyk and Zadrozny [25]), employ it for the required and desired conditions (queries with fuzzy linguistic quantifiers), and then implant into the compound query, i.e. a bipolar query with the required and desired conditions being queries with fuzzy linguistic quantifiers. A new conceptual quality, functionality and human consistency is therefore obtained.
