Abstract

Decision rules are a powerful tool for the management of information from a relational database, allowing the extraction of conclusions. A decision algorithm collects a characteristic set of decision rules and its efficiency is one of its most interesting properties, since it allows us to know the usefulness of the decision algorithm and to compare it with other algorithms. This paper focuses on the generalization of the notions of decision algorithm and efficiency to the fuzzy case.
