In this paper we show a method to characterize logical matrices by means of a special kind of structures, called here discriminant structures for this purpose. Its definition is based on the discrimination of each truthvalue of a given (finite) matrix M = (A, D), w.r.t. its belonging to D. From this starting point, we define a whole class SM of discriminant structures. This class is characterized by a set of Boolean equations, as it is shown here. In addition, several technical results are presented, and it is emphasized the relation of the Discriminant Structures Semantics (D.S.S) with other related semantics such as Dyadic or Twist-Structure.
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.
