Whenever a FUZZYCOMPARE or FUZZYCONCAT statement is used, we have to include a table where the correspondings for all linguistic terms for comparison and concatenation is defined. The statement to do that is
TABLE File_Name
Such tables have to meet the following structure:
| CONCAT | ConcatOperator | parameterset1 | parameterset2 | parameterset3 |
| <list_of_lingterms> | <list_of_lingterms> | <list_of_lingterms> |
| COMPARE | CompareOperator | parameterset_in | parameterset_out |
| <list_of_lingterms> | <list_of_lingterms> |
To concretize this concept, we will give a sample for such a table, according to the example we started in 7.5.1:
low low low
low medium low
low high medium
medium low low
medium medium medium
high medium medium
high high high
OR fuzzy1 fuzzy1 fuzzy1
low low low
low medium medium
low high high
medium low medium
medium medium medium
medium high high
high low high
high medium high
high high high
COMPARE = fuzzy1 fuzzy2
low bad
medium good
high bad
# fuzzy1 fuzzy2
low good
medium bad
high good
< fuzzy1 fuzzy2
low good
medium neutral
high bad
> fuzzy1 fuzzy2
low bad
medium neutral
Whenever we want to use new operators or new linguistic terms, the appropriate entries in such a file have to be performed. In this example fuzzy1 and fuzzy2 are names of PARAMETERSET objects, so for each PARAMETERSET there should exist the corresponding entries in the table if we want to state constraints on FUZZYVAR objects declared with such a PARAMETERSET.
