Processing fuzzy temporal knowledge

DuBois, D., Prade, H.·1989·IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics

Abstract

L.A. Zadeh's (1975) possibility theory is used as a general framework for modeling temporal knowledge pervaded with imprecision or uncertainty. Ill-known dates, time intervals with fuzzy boundaries, fuzzy durations, and uncertain precedence relations between events can be dealt with in this approach. An explicit representation (in terms of possibility distributions) of the available information, which may be neither precise nor certain, is maintained. Deductive patterns of reasoning involving fuzzy and/or uncertain temporal knowledge are established, and the combination of fuzzy partial pieces of information is considered. A scheduled example with fuzzy temporal windows is discussed.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
