Abstract

This paper describes a formalism for representing imprecise knowledge which combines traditional frame-based formalisms with fuzzy logic and fuzzy IF-THEN rules. Inference in this formalism is based on unification and the calculus of fuzzy IF-THEN rules, and lends itself to an efficient implementation.
