Abstract

Some models of dynamic cognitive maps, whose factors are determined in finite linearly ordered qualitative scales, are studied. Notions of fuzzy values and increments of factors and operations over them are determined. Specific features of defuzzification of fuzzy qualitative values are discussed. Basic behavior effects of these models, sources and forms of data fuzziness in the computing process, means for controlling this event, and confidence limits in the simulating process are studied.
