Overview

About

Various algorithms related to linguistic fuzzy logic: mining for linguistic fuzzy association rules, composition of fuzzy relations, performing Mamdani, implicative, and perception-based logical deduction (PbLD), and forecasting time-series using fuzzy rule-based ensemble (FRBE). The package also contains basic fuzzy-related algebraic functions capable of handling missing values in different styles (Bochvar, Sobocinski, Kleene etc.), computation of Sugeno integrals and the fuzzy transform.

Changes in 2.4.0
  • released: 2026-07-03
  • added upperBound() algebra for missing values
  • added infer() function for Mamdani and implicative inference
  • fixed bugs
