Abstract

Applies fuzzy languages to the retrieval of geometric figures, chromosome images and leukocyte images. Presents procedures for answering composite fuzzy queries such as “retrieve the triangles which are very similar to equilateral triangles and more or less similar to right triangles”, “retrieve the chromosomes which are very similar to median chromosomes, but not similar to a given chromosome”, and “retrieve leukocytes with deeply indented nucleus or elongated nucleus”. The results may have useful applications in robotics, artificial intelligence, natural language processing and related areas.
