Abstract

In this paper previous results by our group in the field of fuzzy quantification modelling and application are compiled. A general mechanism that is based on the voting-model interpretation of fuzzy sets is described. Application examples of quantified statements in the field of reasoning with fuzzy temporal rules, modelling of task-oriented vocabularies and information retrieval are presented.
