On Fuzzy Preference Queries Explicitly Handling Satisfaction Levels

  • Conference paper
Advances on Computational Intelligence (IPMU 2012)

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 297))

Abstract

This paper deals with database preference queries involving fuzzy conditions which explicitly involve the satisfaction degree obtained by a tuple with respect to a (possibly complex) fuzzy condition. Different forms that such conditions can take are investigated, and some elements about query processing are provided.
