Abstract
As data is getting more complex and complicated, it is increasingly difficult to construct an effective complex decision model. Two very obvious examples where such a need emerges are in the economic and the medical fields. This paper presents the fuzzy signature and cognitive modeling approach which could improve such decision models. Fuzzy signatures are introduced to handle complex structured data and problems with interdependent features. A fuzzy signature can also be used in cases where data is missing. The proposed fuzzy signature structure will be used in problems that fall into this category. This paper also investigates a novel cognitive model to extend the usage of fuzzy signatures. This Fuzzy Cognitive Signature Modelling will enhance the usability of fuzzy theory in modelling complex systems as well as facilitating complex decision making process based on ill structured information or data.
