Abstract

The Modus Ponens becomes an essential property in approximate reasoning and fuzzy control when forward inferences are managed. Thus, the conjunctor and the fuzzy implication function used in the inference process are required to satisfy this property. Usually, the conjunctor is modeled by a t-norm, but recently also by conjunctive uninorms. In this paper we study when (UN)-implications satisfy the Modus Ponens property with respect to a conjunctive uninorm U in general, in a similar way as it was previously done for RU-implications. The functional inequality derived from the Modus Ponens involves in this case two different uninorms and a fuzzy negation leading to many possibilities. So, this communication presents only a first step in this study and many cases depending on the classes of the involved uninorms are worth to study.

Footnotes
1
The subindex “cos” stands here for continuous open square.
 
2
Recall that continuous negations are the most usual ones. In particular, they contain the strong negations (those that are involutive) and also the strict ones (those that are strictly decreasing and continuous).
