Voting-model based evaluation of fuzzy quantified sentences: a general framework
The framework here presented allows the definition of new probabilistic methods for fuzzy quantification and also the description of previous ones. All of these methods are endowed with a clear semantic interpretation that is based on a voting model. The methods within the framework fulfil a number of important and adequate properties of interest for fuzzy quantification and can also deal with very different types of quantifiers, as comparative and exception ones.
