In this paper, we propose a syntactic pattern recognition approach based on fuzzy automata,
which can cope with the variability of patterns by accepting in its models a certain degree of …

A questionnaire is a basic tool for collecting information in survey research. Often, these
questions are measured using a Likert scale. With multiple items on the same broad object …

This paper presents a new method to automatically obtain linguistic descriptions from a
multivariate time series. The first step consists of the induction from the multivariate time …

An approach to generating qualitative descriptions of multivariate time series using the
'Temporal Fuzzy Model'as an intermediate representation is presented. This model, based …

In this paper, we propose the use of temporal fuzzy chains for the modeling of dynamical
systems in a way that is comprehensible. We are interested in helping the overall …

In this paper we present a system that, directly from compressed video domain, establishes
a correspondence between objects in motion in a video scene and a concrete behaviour …

In this work we present a system that describes linguistically the position of an object in
motion in each frame of a video stream. This description is obtained directly from MPEG …

Temporal fuzzy models (TFMs) are used to represent the dynamic systems (DSs) in a
linguistic way. TFMs are composed of ordered temporal fuzzy rules (TFRs), thus, each rule …

Krassimir T. Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS), one of the extensions of fuzzy sets,
have shown to be one of the most effective ways to handle ambiguity. John N. Mordeson …

This work presents a new method to compare two Temporal Fuzzy Chains (TFCs). The TFCs
comparison is used to compare the temporal evolution of two dynamical systems (TFCs) …
