Abstract
Truth values in fuzzy logic are extended into interval truth values {[a, b]: 0≤a≤b≤1} from the numerical truth values of [0, 1]. Next we extend this interval truth values into two directions; one is to n-dimensional case such as [a 1,...,a n ] where a 1≤...≤a n , and the other is to dropping the condition a≤b in [a, b]. We examine the algebraic structures of these truth values on which three kinds of logic operations AND(·), OR(∨), NOT(⊃ are defined, where we interpret (x·y), (x∨y), 0 and (⊃x) as min(x, y), max(x, y), and (1−x), respectively. It is shown that we can find out structures of Kleene algebra and De Morgan algebra in these truth values.
