Multisets and Fuzzy Multisets as a Framework of Information Systems

摘要

Multisets are now a common tool and a fundamental framework in information processing. Their generalization to fuzzy multisets has also been studied. In this paper the basics of multisets and fuzzy multisets are reviewed, fundamental properties of fuzzy multisets are proved, and advanced operations are defined. Applications to rough sets, fuzzy data retrieval, and automatic classification are moreover considered.
