Abstract

We discuss the use of fuzzy set theory and semantic unification for fuzzy clustering and the use of fuzzy rules in knowlege bases. The paper provides a unification with probability theory and probabilistic fuzzy rules are discussed. Fuzzy sets are used to provide generalisation in clustering and pattern recognition methods.

Professor J. F. Baldwin is a SERC Senior Research Fellow
