Abstract :
This paper focuses on several stability issues regarding the modeling of the dynamics of qualitative real world systems, and the ability of fuzzy cognitive maps and rule-based fuzzy cognitive maps to provide a faithful modeling in what concerns the stability properties of those systems. It also introduces the concept of intrinsic stability as a necessary property of qualitative system dynamics modeling tools.
