Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 5110))

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of interval additive generators of interval t-norms as interval representations of additive generators of t-norms, considering both the correctness and the optimality criteria, in order to provide a more systematic methodology for the selection of interval t-norms in the various applications. We prove that interval additive generators satisfy the main properties of punctual additive generators discussed in the literature.
