The Semantics of Fuzzy Logics: Two Approaches to Finite Tomonoids
Abstract
Fuzzy logic generalises classical logic; in addition to the latter’s truth values "false" and "true", the former allows also intermediary truth degrees. The conjunction is, accordingly, interpreted by an operation acting on a chain, making the set of truth degrees into a totally ordered monoid. We present in this chapter two different ways of investigating this type of algebras. We restrict to the finite case.
