Abstract
Fuzzy quantifiers have important applications in a great variety of fields such as database querying, data mining and knowledge discovering, inductive learning and so on. Recently, M.S.Ying introduces a novel fuzzy framework for linguistic quantifiers which are modeled by Sugeno integrals. Essentially, the conjunction and disjunction in Ying’s framework are interpreted as the “min” and “max” operations, which restricts the application of this theory in some sense. In this paper, we extended Ying’s framework by interpreting the conjunction and disjunction as t-norm and t-conorm respectively. And some elegant logical results for our framework have been obtained.
