Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present a bitwise approach on evaluation of fuzzy t-norms. T-norms are functions that generalize the notion of conjunction, and as such play an important role in fuzzy association rule mining process. Efficient algorithms for batch evaluation of the most common t-norms is proposed that minimizes computation time as well as memory space requirements at the cost of user-adjustable loss of precision of the membership degrees.
