Abstract

The "Fuzzy LOgic Programming Environment for Research", FLOPER in brief, that we have implemented in our research group, is intended to help the development of rule-based applications supporting fuzzy logic and approximated reasoning. The system is able to directly translate a powerful kind of fuzzy logic programs (belonging to the so-called multi-adjoint logic approach ) into Prolog code which can be directly executed inside any standard Prolog interpreter in a completely transparent way for the final user. The system also generates a low-level representation of the fuzzy code offering debugging (tracing) capabilities with close connections to other program manipulation tasks (optimization, specialization, etc). Our approach focuses on practical and technical aspects on rule-based reasoning with uncertain and fuzzy information.
