A Parameter-tunable Triangular Norm with Monotonic Genes by WU Lunhua, ZHAO Hui, WANG Yue

“… In order to study the optimization of Zadeh operator, a definition of parameter-tunable triangular norm with monotonic genes is given.First, we defined a kind of triangular norm Fλin the general sense generated by monotone functions using elementary operations, and then a definition of triangular conorm Gλin the general sense is given by using duality.This type of definition unifies the optimal Zadeh operator proposed by some authors.Next, this definition is applied to generate a new pair of triangular norms. …”
