    • eval

      public abstract Double eval(Double val1, Double val2)
      Description copied from interface: BinaryFunction
      Evaluates the function for the given elements.
      Specified by:
      eval in interface BinaryFunction<Double,Double,Double>
      Parameters:
      val1 - some element
      val2 - some element
      Returns:
      the value of the element.

    • eval

      public Double eval(Collection<Double> vals)
      Generalizes this conorm on sets of input parameters (as t-conorms are associative, the order is not important).
      Parameters:
      vals - a set of values
      Returns:
      the evaluation result on the input

    • evalTerm

      public abstract Term evalTerm(Term val1, Term val2)
      Gives a representation of this conorm as a mathematical term
      Parameters:
      val1 - the term denoting the first parameter
      val2 - the term denoting the second parameter
      Returns:
      the term denoting this conorm evaluation on the two terms

    • evalTerm

      public Term evalTerm(Collection<Term> vals)
      Gives a representation of this conorm as a mathematical term. Generalizes this conorm on sets of input parameters (as t-conorms are associative, the order is not important).
      Parameters:
      vals - a set of value terms
      Returns:
      the evaluation result on the input as a term

    • getDualNorm

      public abstract TNorm getDualNorm()
      Returns the dual T-norm of this T-conorm.
      Returns:
      the dual T-norm of this T-conorm.

    • isNilpotent

      public abstract boolean isNilpotent()
      A T-conorm is nilpotent if there are x,y<1 with s(x,y)=1
      Returns:
      true if the conorm is nilpotent
