Fuzzy approximation relations, modal structures and possibilistic logic

The paper introduces a general axiomatic notion of approximation mapping, a mapping that associates to each crisp proposition p a fuzzy set representing "approximately p". It is shown how it can be obtained through fuzzy relations, which are at least reflexive. We study the corresponding m...

Description
Summary:The paper introduces a general axiomatic notion of approximation mapping, a mapping that associates to each crisp proposition p a fuzzy set representing "approximately p". It is shown how it can be obtained through fuzzy relations, which are at least reflexive. We study the corresponding multi-modal systems depending on the properties satisfied by the approximate relation. Finally, we show some equivalences between possibilistic logical consequences and global/local logical consequences in the multi-modal systems.
