Isosceles Triangular and Isosceles Trapezoidal Membership Functions Using Centroid Method

Summary Since isosceles triangular and trapezoidal membership functions [4] are easy to manage, they were applied to various fuzzy approximate reasoning [10], [13], [14]. The centroids of isosceles triangular and trapezoidal membership functions are mentioned in this article [16], [9] and formalized in [11] and [12]. Some propositions of the composition mapping ( f + · g , or f +* g using Mizar formalism, where f , g are a ne mappings), are proved following [3], [15]. Then different notations for the same isosceles triangular and trapezoidal membership function are formalized. We proved the agreement of the same function expressed with different parameters and formalized those centroids with parameters. In addition, various properties of membership functions on intervals where the endpoints of the domain are fixed and on general intervals are formalized in Mizar [1], [2]. Our formal development contains also some numerical results which can be potentially useful to encode either fuzzy numbers [7], or even fuzzy implications [5], [6] and extends the possibility of building hybrid rough-fuzzy approach in the future [8].
