First, the graded nature of transitions and state memberships makes traditional minimization techniques difficult to apply. Second, a minimal FDfA is not necessarily unique, as multiple equivalent FDfAs of the same size may exist. In this paper, we focus on finding a polynomial-time minimization method that constructs a minimal FDfA for a given FDfA. Our approach is based on establishing isomorphisms between well-known polynomial-time constructions, providing a mathematical foundation for the proposed method. Specifically, we introduce the notion of quasi-deterministic fuzzy finite automata (QDFfAs) and explore their isomorphism properties with the Myhill-Nerode automaton of a fuzzy language. We show that the determinization via factorization of a QDFfA preserves strong isomorphism with the generalized Myhill-Nerode automaton of the recognized fuzzy language.

Therefore, an ideal DM prediction model should be an efficient and interpretable model and simultaneously reflect/simulate this characteristic during its training. Towards such a goal, this study proposes a hierarchical Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy classifier (H-TSKFC) to assure both enhanced classification performance and diversified generation of interpretable fuzzy rules therein through full-partial-rule-transmission fusion for simulating gradual development of DM. Profiting from full-partial-rule-transmission fusion between sub-classifiers, H-TSKFC was endowed with the following benefits. Firstly, a novel stacking mechanism without any use of residuals between sub-classifiers enhances its generalization capability. Secondly, the generation of interpretable fuzzy rules from the second TSK fuzzy sub-classifier provides a diversified way. That is, its useful rules fusion transmitted fully or partially from previous sub-classifier guarantees considerable consistency between sub-classifiers, while its remaining rules reflect gradual difference between them. In this way, the H-TSKFC’s structure naturally mimics the gradual development of DM. Finally, each sub-classifier therein can be trained sequentially and quickly with an analytical solution to accomplish an individual prediction on the original inputs and outputs. Experimental results indeed demonstrate that H-TSKFC possesses linguistic interpretability, along with considerable classification and generalization performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55130,"journal":{"name":"Fuzzy Sets and Systems","volume":"527 ","pages":"Article 109695"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145625047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A dataset of 25 articles indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection was examined to assess research trends, author collaboration networks, influential publications, source journals, and key thematic areas. Our review identifies four main components in the design of T1FF-based models: input structure, clustering methods, forecasting models, and objective function optimization. Through citation and co-authorship network analysis, we highlight prominent researchers and collaborations within the field. Source journal analysis reveals publication hotspots, while co-word analysis identifies dominant themes such as “forecasting,” “robust regression,” and “metaheuristic optimization.” The results suggest growing academic interest and methodological diversification in the use of T1FFs, with Turkey leading international contributions.
