AN ALTERNATIVE CONCEPT OF FUZZY FUNCTIONAL DEPENDENCY BY USING CONDITIONAL PROBABILITY
Abstract
This paper proposes an alternative concept of Fuzzy Functional Dependency (FFD) based on the theory of conditional probability. We examine some properties of conditional probability and its relation with fuzzy sets. Moreover, approximate conditional probability of two fuzzy sets can be considered to determine the degree of similarity between two fuzzy sets. Based on this property, we propose an alternative concept of FFD and prove that it satisfies classical/crisp relational database.
