Algebraic Structures Using Super Interval Matrices, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy Jan 2011

Algebraic Structures Using Super Interval Matrices, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The advantage of using super interval matrices is that one can build only one vector space using m × n interval matrices, but in case of super interval matrices we can have several such spaces depending on the partition on the interval matrix.

This book has seven chapters. Chapter one is introductory in nature, just introducing the super interval matrices or interval super matrices. In chapter two essential operations on super interval matrices are defined. Further in this chapter algebraic structures are defined on these super interval matrices using these operation. Using these super interval matrices semirings and semivector spaces …


Interval Algebraic Bistructures, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy Jan 2011

Interval Algebraic Bistructures, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Authors in this book construct interval bistructures using only interval groups, interval loops, interval semigroups and interval groupoids. Several results enjoyed by these interval bistructures are described. By this method, we obtain interval bistructures which are associative or non associative or quasi associative. The term quasi is used mainly in the interval bistructure B = B1 ∪ B2 (or in n-interval structure) if one of B1 (or B2) enjoys an algebraic property and the other does not enjoy that property (one section of interval structure satisfies an algebraic property and the remaining section does not satisfy that particular property). The …


A New Approach To Algebraic Coding Theory Through The Applications Of Soft Sets, Florentin Smarandache, Mumtaz Ali Jan 2011

A New Approach To Algebraic Coding Theory Through The Applications Of Soft Sets, Florentin Smarandache, Mumtaz Ali

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Algebraic codes play a signifcant role in the minimisation of data corruption which caused by defects such as inference, noise channel, crosstalk, and packet loss. In this paper, we introduce soft codes (soft linear codes) through the application of soft sets which is an approximated collection of codes. We also discuss several types of soft codes such as type-1 soft codes, complete soft codes etc. Further, we construct the soft generator matrix and soft parity check matrix for the soft linear codes. Moreover, we develop two techniques for the decoding of soft codes.


Contradiction Measures And Specificity Degrees Of Basic Belief Assignments, Florentin Smarandache, Arnaud Martin, Christophe Osswald Jan 2011

Contradiction Measures And Specificity Degrees Of Basic Belief Assignments, Florentin Smarandache, Arnaud Martin, Christophe Osswald

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In the theory of belief functions, many measures of uncertainty have been introduced. However, it is not always easy to understand what these measures really try to represent. In this paper, we re-interpret some measures of uncertainty in the theory of belief functions. We present some interests and drawbacks of the existing measures. On these observations, we introduce a measure of contradiction. Therefore, we present some degrees of non-specificity and Bayesianity of a mass. We propose a degree of specificity based on the distance between a mass and its most specific associated mass. We also show how to use the …


Neutrosophic Code, Mumtaz Ali, Florentin Smarandache, Munazza Naz, Muhammad Shabir Jan 2011

Neutrosophic Code, Mumtaz Ali, Florentin Smarandache, Munazza Naz, Muhammad Shabir

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The idea of neutrosophic code came into my mind at that time when i was reading the literature about linear codes and i saw that, if there is data transformation between a sender and a receiver. They want to send 11and 00 as codewords. They suppose 11 for true and 00 for false. When the sender sends the these two codewords and the error occurs. As a result the receiver received 01 or 10 instead of 11 and 00. This story give a way to the neutrosophic codes and thus we introduced neutrosophic codes over finite field in this paper.

The Concept of a G-space came into being as a consequence of Group action on an ordinary set. Over the history of Mathematics and Algebra, theory of group action has emerged and proven to be an applicable and effective framework for the study of different kinds of structures to make connection among them.

Non Bayesian Conditioning And Deconditioning, Jean Dezert, Florentin Smarandache Apr 2010

Non Bayesian Conditioning And Deconditioning, Jean Dezert, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In this paper, we present a Non-Bayesian conditioning rule for belief revision. This rule is truly Non-Bayesian in the sense that it doesn’t satisfy the common adopted principle that when a prior belief is Bayesian, after conditioning by X, Bel(X|X) must be equal to one. Our new conditioning rule for belief revision is based on the proportional conflict redistribution rule of combination developed in DSmT (Dezert-Smarandache Theory) which abandons Bayes’ conditioning principle. Such Non-Bayesian conditioning allows to take into account judiciously the level of conflict between the prior belief available and the conditional evidence. We also introduce the deconditioning problem …


Fusion Of Sources Of Evidence With Different Importances And Reliabilities, Florentin Smarandache, Jean Dezert, J.M. Tacnet Jan 2010

Fusion Of Sources Of Evidence With Different Importances And Reliabilities, Florentin Smarandache, Jean Dezert, J.M. Tacnet

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

This paper presents a new approach for combining sources of evidences with different importances and reliabilities. Usually, the combination of sources of evidences with different reliabilities is done by the classical Shafer’s discounting approach. Therefore, to consider unequal importances of sources, if any, a similar reliability discounting process is generally used, making no difference between the notion of importance and reliability. In fact, in multicriteria decision context, these notions should be clearly distinguished. This paper shows how this can be done and we provide simple examples to show the differences between both solutions for managing importances and reliabilities of sources. …


An Introduction To Dsmt, Florentin Smarandache, Jean Dezert Jan 2009

An Introduction To Dsmt, Florentin Smarandache, Jean Dezert

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The management and combination of uncertain, imprecise, fuzzy and even paradoxical or highly conflicting sources of information has always been, and still remains today, of primal importance for the development of reliable modern information systems involving artificial reasoning. In this introduction, we present a survey of our recent theory of plausible and paradoxical reasoning, known as Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT), developed for dealing with imprecise, uncertain and conflicting sources of information. We focus our presentation on the foundations of DSmT and on its most important rules of combination, rather than on browsing specific applications of DSmT available in literature. Several simple …


Super Linear Algebra, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy Jan 2008

Super Linear Algebra, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In this book, the authors introduce the notion of Super linear algebra and super vector spaces using the definition of super matrices defined by Horst (1963). This book expects the readers to be well-versed in linear algebra. Many theorems on super linear algebra and its properties are proved. Some theorems are left as exercises for the reader. These new class of super linear algebras which can be thought of as a set of linear algebras, following a stipulated condition, will find applications in several fields using computers. The authors feel that such a paradigm shift is essential in this computerized …

Neutrosophy In Arabic Philosophy, Florentin Smarandache, Salah Osman Jan 2007

Neutrosophy In Arabic Philosophy, Florentin Smarandache, Salah Osman

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Is there an absolute reality? Yes, “God” is the only absolute reality. The three main religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam have all claimed that God is a supreme reality, and that all other creatures are finite beings. Since they relatively continue and also relatively change, so they can not be absolute. The world is full of paradoxes, there is no absolute persistence, and also there is no change at a stretch. There is no absolute truth and there is no continuous falsehood. What exist are many faces or aspects between the two terms. Those faces are reduced to a neutral …

“Day in and day out we take pride in claiming that India has a 5000 year old civilization. But the way Dalits and those suppressed are being treated by the people who wield power and authority speaks volumes for the degradations of our moral structure and civilized standards.” Ex-President of India, the late K. R. Narayanan The New Indian Express, Saturday, 12 Nov. 2005 K.R.Narayanan was a lauded hero and a distinguished victim of his Dalit background. Even in an international platform when he was on an official visit to Paris, the media headlines blazed, ‘An Untouchable at Elysee’. He …

Graphs and matrices play a vital role in the analysis and study of several of the real world problems which are based only on unsupervised data. The fuzzy and neutrosophic tools like fuzzy cognitive maps invented by Kosko and neutrosophic cognitive maps introduced by us help in the analysis of such real world problems and they happen to be mathematical tools which can give the hidden pattern of the problem under investigation. This book, in order to generalize the two models, has systematically invented mathematical tools like bimatrices, trimatrices, n-matrices, bigraphs, trigraphs and n-graphs and describe some of its properties. …

中智学为何诞生? 中智学(neutrosophy)起源于1995年美国, 它站在东西文化交融的立场上, 从对立统一的角度探索从科学技术到文学 艺术的一切宏观及微观结构, 构造超越一切学科、超越自然科学与社会科学界限的统一场, 以解决当今认知科学、信息 科学、系统科学、经济学、量子力学等科学技术前沿难题——非确定性问题。中智学努力通过新型开放模式改造当今 各自然科学与社会科学, 实现它们的新陈代谢、改革创新和更新换代。中智学在我们中国还属空白, 故借此对学科正式 命名并引入中国。 科学是真理吗? 比如, 当今信息科学的突出问题之一就是知识表达、知识处理及知识交流中的逻辑单一性: 不是真就是假, 从而不 能面对任何矛盾和冲突。由此, 人工智能、计算机网络、数据库、信息工程, 乃至电子商务、电子政务多多少少在走死 胡同。从表面上看, 它是模糊数学或协调逻辑的问题, 而从本质上看, 它属于结构性问题, 涉及到对哲学、逻辑学、集 合论、概率论、认知科学、信息科学基本概念以及众多相关领域的重新认识、重新塑造问题。 众所周知, 我国学习西方, 只图表面, 而不注重科学的内在结构, 不懂科学的概念和原理中也有基础设施 (换句话 说, 就是基础设施的基础设施), 从而建不起高楼大厦, 更谈不上科学上的自主, 从而形成盲目跟从西方的弊病。 科学, 这个被认为是永恒的真理, 其本质上没有半点永恒, 相反, 它时刻处于新老交替、新陈代谢、自我否定、自 我淘汰的动态之中——即使存在什么永恒的真理, 也终究会被后人推翻。科学实际上是一种战争, 而中智学正是关于它 的战略战术的科学。 当今世界上高深的科学莫过于爱因斯坦的相对论, 然而一切的一切, 都是建立在恒定光速的基础上——它正 在被现代的人们推翻!

In 1960s Abraham Robinson has developed the non-standard analysis, a formalization of analysis and a branch of mathematical logic, that rigorously defines the infinitesimals. Informally, an infinitesimal is an infinitely small number. Formally, x is said to be infinitesimal if and only if for all positive integers n one has xxx < 1/n. Let &>0 be a such infinitesimal number. The hyper-real number set is an extension of the real number set, which includes classes of infinite numbers and classes of infinitesimal numbers. Let’s consider the non-standard finite numbers 1+ = 1+&, where “1” is its standard part and “&” its non-standard part, …
