우리가 일상적으로 사용하는 말속에는 모호한 표현들이 많이 들어있다. 예를 들어, '젊다', '크다', '어느 정도' 등의 표현들은 정해진 값을 갖는 말들이 아니다. 가장 보편화된 RDBMS에서의 질의어인 SQL(Structured Query Language, 이하 SQL)은 데이터베이스에서 허용된 값, 즉 정량적인 값들에 대해서만 질의할 수 있도록 되어 있다. '젊은 여자' 혹은 '20세 정도의 여자'라는 질의는 할 수 없으며, '25세의 여자' 라는 식으로 정확한 질의만이 허용된다. 그러나 정보량이 급증하고 있고, 정보가 곧 힘이 되는 지금, 일반 사용자들도 데이터베이스에서 자신이 원하는 정보를 얻어 낼 수 있어야만 하게 되었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 일반 사용자들도 데이터베이스에서 일상적으로 사용하는 단어(이하 자연어)로 질의를 할 수 있도록 하는 FSQL에 대해 논의하고자 한다.

This paper introduces a new method to solve Similarity Recognition for Cloth Products, which is based on Fuzzy logic and Particle swarm optimization algorithm. For convenience, it is called the SRCPFP method hereafter. In this paper, the SRCPFP method combines Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to solve similarity recognition for cloth products. First, it establishes three features, length, thickness, and temperature resistance, respectively, for each cloth product. Subsequently, these three features are engaged to construct a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) which can find out the similarity between a query cloth and each sampling cloth in the cloth database D. At the same time, the FIS integrated with the PSO algorithm can effectively search for near optimal parameters of membership functions in eight fuzzy rules of the FIS for the above similarities. Finally, experimental results represent that the SRCPFP method can realize a satisfying recognition performance and outperform other well-known methods for similarity recognition under considerations here.

GIS (geographic information system) applications increasingly require the representation of geospatial objects with fuzzy extent and querying of time-varying information. In this paper, we Introduce a FSTDB (fuzzy spatiotemporal database) to represent and manage states and events causing changes of dynamic fuzzy objects using fuzzy set theory. We also propose the algorithms for the operators to be included in a GIS to make it able to answer queries depending on fuzzy predicates during a time interval and a method to identify the development process of objects during a certain period based on the designed database. They can be used in application areas handling time-varying geospatial data, including global change (as in climate or land cover change) and social (demographic, health, ect.) application.

Fuzzy information retrieval which uses the concept of fuzzy relation is able to retrieve documents in the way based on not morphology but semantics, dissimilar to traditional information retrieval theories. Fuzzy information retrieval logically consists of three sets : the set of documents, the set of terms and the set of queries. It maintains a fuzzy relational matrix which describes the relationship between documents and terms and creates a thesaurus with fuzzy relational product. It also provides the user with documents which are relevant to his query. However, there are some problems on building a thesaurus with fuzzy relational product such that it has big time complexity and it uses fuzzy values to be processed with flating-point. Actually, fuzzy values have to be expressed and processed with floating-point. However, floating-point operations have complex logics and make the system be slow. If it is possible to exchange fuzzy values with binary values, we could expect sp eding up building the thesaurus. In addition, binary value expressions require just a bit of memory space, but floating -point expression needs couple of bytes. In this study, we suggest a new method of building a thesaurus, which accelerates the operation of the system by pre-applying an ${\alpha}$-cut. The experiments show the improvement of performance and reliability of the system.

In information retrieval, search engine provide the rank of web page and the summary of the web page information to user. Snippet is a summaries information of representing web pages. Visiting the web page by the user is affected by the snippet. User sometime visits the wrong page with respect to user intention when uses snippet. The snippet extraction method is difficult to accurate comprehending user intention. In order to solve above problem, this paper proposes a new snippet extraction method using fuzzy implication operator and relevance feedback. The proposed method uses relevance feedback to expand the use's query. The method uses the fuzzy implication operator between the expanded query and the web pages to extract snippet to be well reflected semantic user's intention. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better snippet extraction performance than the other methods.

In this paper, we proposed the intelligent navigation agent model for successive electronic commerce system management. Fuzzy theory is very useful method where keywords have vague conditions and system must process that conditions. So, using fuzzy theory, we proposed the model that can process the vague keywords effectively. Through the this, we verified that we can get the more appropriate navigation result than any other crisp retrieval keywords condition.

Due to advances in hardware performance, user-friendly interfaces are becoming one of the major concerns in information systems. Linguistic conversation is a very natural way of human communications. Fuzzy techniques have been employed to liaison the discrepancy between the qualitative linguistic terms and quantitative computerized data. This paper deals with linguistic queries using clustering results on data sets, which are intended to retrieve the close clusters or distant clusters from the clustering results. In order to support such queries, a fuzzy technique-based method is proposed. The method introduces distance membership functions, namely, close and distant membership functions which transform the metric distance between two objects into the degree of closeness or farness, respectively. In order to measure the degree of closeness or farness between two clusters, both cluster closeness measure and cluster farness measure which incorporate distance membership function and cluster memberships are considered. For the flexibility of clustering, fuzzy clusters are assumed to be formed. This allows us to linguistically query close or distant clusters by constructing fuzzy relation based on the measures.

The important thing of Information Retrieval System is to satisfy is to satisfy the user's requriement in searching Information Retrieval system ranks documents by weights in document, then Retrieved document context does not consist with given query. This paper proposes a new method of document retrieval based on extended fuzzy concept networks. there are four of fuzzy relationships between concept; fuzzy positive combination, fuzzy negative combination, fuzzy generalization, and fuzzy specilalization. After modeling an extended fuzzy concept network by relation matrix and relevance matrix, we measured similarties.

Most of the real world phenomena change over time. The ability to represent and to reason geographic data becomes crucial. A large amount of non-standard applications are dealing with data characterized by spatial, temporal and/or uncertainty features. Non-standard data like spatial and temporal data have an inner complex structure requiring sophisticated data representation, and their operations necessitate sophisticated and efficient algorithms. Current GIS technology is inefficient to model and to handle complex geographic phenomena, which involve space, time and uncertainty dimensions. This paper concentrates on developing a fuzzy spatio-temporal data model based on fuzzy set theory and relational data models. Fuzzy spatio-temporal operators are also provided to support dynamic query.

Snippet is a summaries information of representing web pages which search engine provides user. Snippet and page rank in search engine abundantly influence user for visiting web pages. User sometime visits the wrong page with respect to user intention when uses snippet. The snippet extraction method is difficult to accurate comprehending user intention. In order to solve above problem, this paper proposes a new snippet extraction method using fuzzy association and pseudo relevance feedback. The proposed method uses pseudo relevance feedback to expand the use's query. It uses the fuzzy association between the expanded query and the web pages to extract snippet to be well reflected semantic user's intention. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better snippet extraction performance than the other methods.
