Abstract

We introduce a universal relational scheme of parameterized sets of objects of arbitrary types, taking also variables and topological structures into account, to represent precise and imprecise (“vague”) knowledge. By operations applied to the scheme further knowledge can be deduced and by functional “queries” facts can be interrogated. As illustrative examples applications to databases, pattern recognition and logical deduction are considered.
