In this paper, we analyse the generalization of the classical method of the construction of a preference structure from a reflexive binary relation to the case of fuzzy binary relations. According to our approach, there are two interesting fuzzy preference structures we can construct from a given reflexive fuzzy binary relation. These two fuzzy preference structures correspond to the two extreme solutions of the system of functional equations in the method of Fodor and Roubens. We also prove that only one of two fuzzy preference structures allows its fuzzy relation of strict preference to be transitive with respect to the -transform of the Lukasiewicz t-norm when the reflexive fuzzy relation it is constructed from is also transitive with respect to the same t-norm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
