Abstract
We comment on the subsethood measure and weak subsethood measure defined by Young and give some new definitions of subsethood measure. We present some subsethood measure formulas from the point of view of set-theoretic approach, and from fuzzy implication operator. Finally an application of subsethood measure to cluster validity is shown.

A functional defined on the class of generalized characteristic functions (fuzzy sets), called “entropy≓, is introduced using no probabilistic concepts in order to obtain a global measure of the indefiniteness connected with the situations described by fuzzy sets.

Limitation analysis indicates, and numerical experiments confirm, that the Fukuyama-Sugeno index is sensitive to both high and low values of m and may be unreliable because of this, and calculations suggest that the best choice for m is probably in the interval [1.5, 2.5], whose mean and midpoint, m=2, have often been the preferred choice for many users of FCM.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsEntropy, distance measure and similarity measure of fuzzy sets and their relations

The axiom definitions of entropy, distance measure and similarity measure of fuzzy sets are systematically given and basic relations between these measures are discussed.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsFuzzy power sets and fuzzy implication operators

The theory of fuzzy power sets is shown very naturally to require the use of a fuzzy implication operator and emphasis is placed on the dependence of the choice of operators upon the purposes the user has in hand.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsFuzzification of set inclusion: Theory and applications
239 Citations1993Divyendu Sinha, Edward R. Dougherty
It is proposed in the present paper that the indicator for set inclusion must be two-valued for crisp sets, and the investigation results in a very general class of indicators based on the bold union operation, and in a complete measure-theoretic characterization of this class.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsFuzzy rough sets: Application to feature selection

It is shown that the fuzzy concepts of Positive, Negative and Boundary region of a set, proposed in the paper, coincide with the original definitions if appropriately applied to ordinary rough classfication.

This paper test some widely used fuzzy implication operators with respect to the recently introduced Smets-Magrez axioms and presents a unified generalization of Zadeh's compositional rule of inference.

39 Citations1997Elena Tsiporkova-Hristoskova, Bernard De Baets +1 more
A large number of new interesting properties of implication operators and fuzzy inclusions are presented first, focusing on the upper inverse image, and two new alternative definitions have been developed using the concept of a fuzzy inclusion.

24 Citations1995José Valente de Oliveira
The defuzzification method, named subsethooddefuzzification (SD) method, has the advantage of being exclusively based on set theoretical operations, giving thus an insight on the nature of the computations involved in one of the most controversial stages of the fuzzy controller architecture.

A generalized pocket algorithm that uses LR-type fuzzy sets operations and defuzzification method is proposed to train a linear threshold unit (LTU) that will classify as many fuzzy input instances as possible.
Information SciencesA modified measure for fuzzy subsethood
11 Citations1994Chua‐Chin Wang, Don Hon-Son
The proposed measure of fuzzy subsethood bears the information of similarity of two fuzzy messages in the n -cube space besides the subsethood, which leads to a fuzzy version of Bayesian's theorem.
