A NEW DISTANCE FOR FUZZY DESCRIPTIONS OF MEASUREMENTS

Thomas Allevard, Eric Benoit, Laurent Foulloy
  • Abstract:
    Fuzzy nominal scales were introduced in order to propose a formalism to the representation of empirical quantities by fuzzy subsets of words. This paper presents the results of studies on distances associated to this formalism and proposes a new distance operator.
