Series Editor Janusz Kacprzyk, Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland

The series “Studies in Systems, Decision and Control” (SSDC) covers both new developments and advances, as well as the state of the art, in the various areas of broadly perceived systems, decision making and control–quickly, up to date and with a high quality. The intent is to cover the theory, applications, and perspectives on the state of the art and future developments relevant to systems, decision making, control, complex processes and related areas, as embedded in the fields of engineering, computer science, physics, economics, social and life sciences, as well as the paradigms and methodologies behind them. The series contains monographs, textbooks, lecture notes and edited volumes in systems, decision making and control spanning the areas of Cyber-Physical Systems, Autonomous Systems, Sensor Networks, Control Systems, Energy Systems, Automotive Systems, Biological Systems, Vehicular Networking and Connected Vehicles, Aerospace Systems, Automation, Manufacturing, Smart Grids, Nonlinear Systems, Power Systems, Robotics, Social Systems, Economic Systems and other. Of particular value to both the contributors and the readership are the short publication timeframe and the worldwide distribution and exposure which enable both a wide and rapid dissemination of research output. Indexed by SCOPUS, DBLP, WTI Frankfurt eG, zbMATH, SCImago. All books published in the series are submitted for consideration in Web of Science.

Chapter 1

Preface

Errors permeate every corner of the world and the decision-making process in different entities including state government, for-profit enterprises, not-for-profit organizations, and person is often susceptible to error ([1–48]). The occurrence of error does not differentiate the developed countries or underdeveloped countries, well-tuned organizations or under-performing organizations, those famous or infamous persons in history. Errors were often seen in scientific and technological fields whether they are in developed countries or developing countries. History has witnessed many different errors in either primitive or civilized societies ([49]). The causes for an error might result from some elements or a single element of the system in which the error is embedded. The consequences of the errors in an object, a case, a decision, or a theoretical system may lead to minor loss, catastrophic casualties, disband of organizations, dissolution of countries, or even the termination of human being. For instance, the mid-air collision of 1st July 2002 between Bashkirian Airlines Flight 2937(Tu-154 passenger jet)and DHL Flight 611(Boeing757 cargo jet) was caused by a series of errors including problems of the arrangement errors for both personnel and equipment maintenance of SWISS air traffic control service and procedural errors of using Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS).The disaster killed 69 passengers and crew members on Flight 2937 and two crew members of the Flight 611, which offered a thought-provoking lesson for relevant organizations and decision makers ([50]). There was a story about how an old wise farmer divided his heir to his three sons. This old farmer had 17 camels. This distribution scenario was to give half of his assets to the oldest son, 1/3 of them to the second son, and 1/9 of them to the youngest son. However, it was not possible for him to have the scenario implemented since he only had odd number of camels. His neighbor just passed by as he was contemplating how he should do it. Having understood the farmer’s issue, the neighbor decided to lend the farmer one camel. Right now, the old farmer had 18 camels to be divided.

son then got 9 of the 18 camels. The second son got 6 which is 1/3 of all the camels. And the youngest son got 2 which is 1/9 of the 18 camels. Therefore, total camels divided to three sons were 17 and the neighbor took his camel back. This story told us that increase transformation can help resolve challenging issues. In engineering project, dismantling shabby buildings and erecting new ones employ the concepts of destruction and inverse destruction(creation or construction). In repairing broken electronic appliances, replacing broken parts with new one adopts the thoughts of displacement transformation. In the process of studying a complicated system, it is necessary to investigate how the error or failure of one element or multiple elements (or subsystems) of the system can influence its reliability and functionality ([51–59]). In order to identify the errors or failures and consequently eliminate or remove them, we need to find the ways or laws that error is transmitted and transformed in the system ([60–97]). In order to identify and remove error occurred in an element ei of system S, the first step is to decompose system A into a subsystem set containing the subsystem with ei as one part of it; then a non-erroneous subsystem is used to replace ei . For example, a company A experiencing crisis wants to learn the management system of a successful company B, it is not wise to mechanically implant A’s procedures into B’s system without making adaptive changes. Taking another example, regarding the expansion strategy of chain stores, decision makers have to consider the differences in distinct cultures, religions, social norms, law and regulations, and economic and political contexts and make necessary transformation and changes accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary to examine decomposition transformation, displacement transformation, increase transformation, similarity transformation, destruction transformation, unit transformation, and their corresponding inverse transformations (if necessary) of those successful management systems and the management systems experiencing crises. Error logic is to explore thinking forms, thinking methods and laws, and valid reasoning of related propositions for static and dynamic transformation relationships of intra- and inter-errors in a given system. According to the range of truth values in error logic, error logic can be categorized into: error binary-value logic, fuzzy error logic ([98–112]), and error logic with critical points ([113]). In scientific research and social practices, people have tried to use various transformation (change) methods to resolve actual problems or eliminate errors in a system. Therefore, in order to investigate ways and laws of error transformation such as T (μ) = μ0 , we solve for μ0 given that T and μ are known or for μ given that T and μ0 are known, or for T given that μ0 and μ are known, where T is the transformation mechanism, μ0 and μ are the object of research. Here it is necessary to study the laws and mechanisms on how errors are transformed under different conditions. Definition of error: Suppose that U is the universe of discourse, G is a set of rules for judging error defined within U , if ∃ G  a (including the cases that a can not be completely or partially obtained by exercising G; or the case that a has nothing to do with G.), a is erroneous defined within U under the rule of judging errors G. Based on the

definition, we know that the error is relative. Its existence pertains to certain universe of discourse, a group of rules, and the implications manifested in the definition. Note: G is a set of predetermined and qualified rules for judging if an object is correct or not. Otherwise, G ⇒ a holds if G is the rule for judging whether an object is erroneous or not. Relevant definitions are presented as below. 1. Rules for judging errors: Research contents in this area contain: (1) conditions for justifying the appropriateness of those chosen rules and their applicable factors such as field and time; (2) relations between chosen rules; (3) relations between chosen rules and the object being investigated; and (4) methods for screening and assessing rules 2. Error set theory: On the basis of classic and fuzzy set theories, the established error set is composed of classic error set, fuzzy error set, and error set with critical points ([114, 115]). In error set theory, we investigate both static and dynamic relations and interactions of things ([116–129]). We especially focus on the study of relation between change and transformation of things. Six basic transformations, namely similarity or equivalence transformation, displacement transformation, decomposition transformation, addition transformation, destruction transformation, and unit transformation are introduced for the purpose of studying change and transformation of things. Dynamic parameters are assigned to elements of error set to capture the change and transformation of things. Thereafter, by using 6 basic transformations, operations can be qualitatively and quantitatively conducted on elements of error set. 3. Error logic: Built on the foundation of classic mathematical logic, fuzzy mathematical logic, and dialectic logic, the concept of error logic is proposed in order to identify the pattern and laws for transition and transformation of errors. In our error logic system, in addition to denotation connective, connotation connective, and individual connective, 6 more transformation connectives are created, namely similarity transformation connective, displacement transformation connective, decomposition transformation connective, addition transformation connective, destruction transformation connective, and unit transformation connective as well as their inverse transformation connectives. More importantly, research in error logic covers many aspects including but not limited to (1) principles and laws of operation of each newly created connective, operation between new connectives, and operation between each of the new connective and existing denotation connective, connotation connective, or individual connective; (2) truth value table, normal forms, and valid reasoning methods in error logic; (3) concept and parameter of error predicate logic; and (4) semantic structure and semantic interpretation of subject term (the variable), quantifier, and predicate, etc.

1 Preface

Regarding the differences between error logic and correctness logic, five aspects are presented as follows: 1. For parallel system (a) For correctness logic, A ∨ B ∨ · · · ∨ G (disjunction of logical propositions), the system can normally function as long as any of the subsystems A, or B, · · · , or G functions well. (b) For error logic, A ∧ B ∧ · · · ∧ G (conjunction of logical propositions), the system can not normally function if all the subsystems A, B, · · · , and G do not function. 2. For series system (a) For correctness logic, A ∧ B ∧ · · · ∧ G (conjunction of logical propositions), the system can normally function if all the subsystems A, B, · · · , and G can function. (b) For error logic, A ∨ B ∨ · · · ∨ G (disjunction of logical propositions), the system can not normally function if one of the subsystems A, or B, · · · , or G does not function. 3. For whole system (a) For correctness logic, enlarging the scale of a system will not increase the correctness of the system if the fundamental structure of the system does not change. (b) For error logic, enlarging the scale of a system will increase the occurrence of error if the fundamental structure of the system does not change. 4. For logic system Error logical transformation connectives are created based on conventional mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic. They are listed as follows: (1) Similarity transformation connectives, Tx ⊆ { Txly , Txsw , Txk j , Txt z , Txlz , Txcz , Txhs , Txs j , Txgz , Tx zh } where similarity includes: {domain similarity, thing similarity, spatial similarity, property similarity, property (attribute) value similarity, error value similarity, error function similarity, temporal similarity, rule similarity, and similarity in comprehensive aspects (different combinations of them)} ); Tx−1 : inverse similarity transformation connectives, Tx−1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 −1 ⊆ { Txly , Txsw , Txk j , Txt z , Txlz , Txcz , Txhs , Txs j , Txgz , Tx zh } where inverse similarity includes: {domain inverse similarity, thing inverse similarity, spatial inverse similarity, property inverse similarity, property (attribute) value inverse similarity, error value inverse similarity, error function inverse similarity, temporal inverse similarity, rule inverse similarity, and inverse similarity in comprehensive aspects (different combinations of them)}.

Readers should be cautious about several points showed as below while reading or referring to this book: (1) error logic was proposed based on classic mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic with the purpose of gaining better understand on erring causes and mechanisms, laws for error transmissions and transformations, and methodologies for avoiding or eliminating errors; (2) classic mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic are to get the truth values of propositions based on the degree of “correctness”. In the error logic −−→ definition, A(μ(t), x(t)) = A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f ( μ(t), G(t))), x(t) ∈ { {0, 1}, [0, 1], (−∞, +∞) } is the error logical variable, where U (t) is the

−−→ −−→ domain of μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), S(t) is the thing or subject, p(t) is −−→ the spatial location and direction of μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t) is the property or −−→ predicate of μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), L(t) is the value of the property or attribute −−→ of μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), x(t) = f ( μ(t), G(t)) is the truth value or truth value −−→ function of A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f ( μ(t), G(t))), G(t) is the rule for judging error defined in domain U (t); (3) all relevant definitions in Chap. 4 conform to definitions and notations defined in classic mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic except for those related to error transformation connectives; (4) a logic system with error values as the values of error logical propositions is used to define logic connectives; (5) considering the four points mentioned above, special care is required when discussing and applying necessary logical propositions in actual application. Things needing to keep in mind are that: (1) “correctness” logic’s definitions and logical calculus should be used when logical propositions involving classic mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic; (2) definitions and logical calculus related to error logic should be employed, otherwise. The book is arranged as follows. Chapter 2 offers the reviews on the history, development, and trend projection of logic as well as the logic-related thoughts of well-known logician and philosophers. In Chap. 3, error sets and relevant operations are presented. As the core part of this book, Chap. 4 presents main transformation connectives in error logic and how they are used in error identification and elimination. In Chap. 5, concepts, definitions, and operations of mathematical error propositional logic are detailed. Chapter 6 provides the detailed application of error logic. The ultimate objective of studying error is to avoid or eliminate errors, and consequently to reduce the loss or even disaster caused by ignored errors. In order to avoid or eliminate errors, it is necessary to understand erring causes and mechanisms, laws for error transmissions and transformations, and methodologies for avoiding or eliminating errors. This is why we have been devoting our efforts in studying error logic. However, due to limitations in experiences and level of research, the causes and mechanisms of erring are far from clear, the laws of error transmissions and transformations (currently found) are far from being enough, and method and tool system for avoiding or eliminating is far from being fully established. Therefore, there are bound to be mistakes of one kind and another in the book and we wholeheartedly invite scholars and readers to enlighten us by providing feedback and critiques.

Short Introduction on the Logic

Logic deals with the systematic study of the form of valid inference. Formal logic was developed in ancient civilized countries such as India, China, and Greece. Aristotelian logic was widely recognized and accepted for the systematic study of logic in western science and mathematics for millennia, which was reflected by Aristotle’s (384BC– 322BC) six logic works (collectively called Organon-Tool), i.e., categories, De interpretatione (On Interpretation), prior analytics, posterior analytics, topics, and sophistic refutations. Stoics scholars represented by Chrysippus (c.279BC–c.206BC) proposed and developed predicate logic. Philosophers such as Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius (c.477–524 AD), Abu Ali Sina(980–1037 AD), William of Ockha (1285– 1347 AD), and Jean Buridan (c.1301–c.1359 AD) advanced Aristotelian logic and thereafter research on logic declined and did not receive attention until mid-nineteen century.1 The logic discussed here is modern logic that is based on mathematical logic and analytic philosophy developed by George Boole (1815–1864), Friedrich Ludwig Gottlob Frege (1848–1925), Bertrand Arthur William Russell (1872–1970), and Giuseppe Peano (1858–1932). Mathematical logic’s fast progress was attributed to the work of Kurt Gödel (1906–1978) and Alfred Tarski (1901–1983). Modern logic has witnessed rapid development, which has become a primary subject including multiple branches. Modern logic has widely extended its application to mathematics, computer science, artificial intelligence, philosophy, law studies, linguistic studies, economics, and psychology, etc. In 1974, UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization), in the subject category, listed logic as one of the seven fundamental scientific disciplines, which are mathematics, astronomy, earth and space science, astrophysics, physics, chemistry, and life science.

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

2.1 Major Theories in Modern Logic Modern logic consists of six fields which are mathematical logic, philosophic logic, logic of natural language, interdisciplinary research in logic and computer science, inductive logic, and philosophy of logic. They are briefly introduced respectively. 1. Mathematical Logic Mathematical logic is the foundation for modern logic which includes model theory, proof theory, recursion theory (also known as computability theory), and set theory. As the foundations of mathematics and theoretical computer science, it explores the application of formal logic to mathematics. It attempts to investigate the expressive power of formal systems and the deductive power of formal proof systems. 2. Philosophic Logic Philosophic logic is a subcategory of logic developed in 1950s. Founded on mathematical logic, it connects the concepts, scope, and problems in traditional philosophy. Philosophical logic has two subcategories. One subcategory is to address extensions to classical logic. For instance, a modal expression such as “necessarily” or “possibly” is used to qualify the truth of a judgment; tense logic (temporal logic) has been broadly used to include all approaches to representation and reasoning regarding time and temporal information within a logical framework in which inferences are studied using formal logical language with tense operators (“earlier than”, “before”, “points in time”); epistemic logic is the logic of knowledge and belief, which uses expressions like “knows that” or “believes that”; deontic logic is a branch of symbolic logic that is concerned with contribution that the following notions make to what follows from what: must, supererogatory (beyond the call of duty), indifferent/significant, the least one can do, better than /best/good/bad, and claim /liberty/power/immunity.2 The other subcategory is to addresses alternatives to “classical” logic known as “nonclassical” logic. For example, intuitionistic logic is as a part of mathematics rather than as the foundation of mathematics, which provides constructive explanation for logic connectives and logic quantifiers; relevance logic was developed to avoid the paradoxes of material and strict implication, in which relevance logicians thought that the paradoxes reside in that the premises and conclusions are on completely different topics. 3. Logic of Natural Language Logic of natural language is an important branch of logic founded on modern logic, modern linguistics, and semiotics. It concerns with not only the linguistic expression of cognitive contents but also linguistic expression of emotional contents. Moreover, it pays attention to functionality of linguistic expression as well as the capability of communicating information.

4. Interdisciplinary Research in Logic and Computer Science This area focuses on the studies and applications in programming logic and procedural coding, logic programming language, design of conversion program, program verification and validation, program integration, formal semantics of programming language, and computational complexity theory, etc. 5. Inductive Logic An inductive logic is a system that provides evidence to extend deductive logic to lessthan-certain inferences. It attempts to quantify, formalize, and axiomatize inductive reasoning through employing mathematical logic, philosophical logic, and theory of probability and statistics. 6. Philosophy of Logic Philosophy of logic was derived from the interaction of modern logic and modern philosophy, which represents the intellectual reflection on issues arising in logic. It includes but not limited to the scope and nature of logic, the nature of logic truth, relationship between logic and other subjects, explanation of fundamental logic concepts, theory of meaning, logical paradox, and the nature of formalism, etc.

2.1.1 Origin of Mathematical Logic In as early as 17 century, scholars attempted to use quantitative method to map the logical reasoning in human beings’ thinking. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646–1716), known as the “universal genius” during his era, ever thought to create a “universal scientific language” that quantifies all the reasoning processes using equations in mathematics. Given the constraints of that time, his thoughts were not practiced. Nevertheless, his thoughts sowed the seed of modern mathematical logic and he can be regarded the trailblazer for founding modern mathematical logic. In 1847, Britain mathematician George Boole published the “The Mathematical Analysis of Logic” his first work on symbolic logic. In this book, boolean algebra and associated symbolic system were created to represent all kinds of concepts in logic. Boole established series of laws of operations and algebraic approaches were employed to study logic issues, which laid the cornerstone for mathematical logic. From the end of 19 century to the beginning of 20 century, mathematical logic witnessed rapid development. In 1884, in Gottlob Frege’s book “The Foundations of Arithmetic”, the German philosopher, logician, and mathematician introduced the symbol for quantifier, which improved the symbolic system of mathematical logic. Other scholars including Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914) had also made significant contributions to consummate the symbolic system of mathematical logic. With contributions of so many dedicated scholars, mathematical logic finally becomes an independent subject.

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

2.1.2 Contents of Mathematical Logic Mathematical logic includes first-order logic, high-order logic, axiomatic set theory, recursion theory, model theory, proof theory, mathematical fuzzy logic, and mathematical dialectical logic. Hereby, two important aspects-i.e. propositional calculus and predicate calculus are briefly introduced. Proposition is the sentence for being the primary bearers of truth and falsity. Propositional calculus is the branch of logic for studying more advanced and complicated propositions (whether they are true or false) through the use of logical connectives. If proposition is looked as the object of an operation such as the numbers, variables, and algebraic expression while logical connectives are treated as operator, e.g. addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. And the process of forming compound proposition from simple propositions is called the propositional calculus. Proposition calculus, same as algebraic operation, follows certain principles and laws of operations. Those laws of operations include not only commutative law, associative law, and distributive law widely used in algebraic operation but also the laws of identity, the absorption laws, the laws of double negation, the De Morgan’s laws, and the laws of syllogism, etc. in logical operations. By using laws mentioned above, logical reasoning and compound proposition simplification can be conducted. Furthermore, equivalence of two compound propositions can be postulated, which is to verify that their logical truth tables are completely the same. One specific model of proposition calculus is the logical algebra, i.e., Boolean algebra. Boolean algebra is also called switching algebra and its basic operations are logical sum (OR), logical product (AND), and logical negation (NOT). The objects of operation only have two numbers 0 and 1, which correspond to the “True” and “False” in propositional calculus. The features of operation for propositional algebra are similar to “ON/OFF” and “High/Low potentials” for electronic circuits. Therefore, it has been widely applied to the analysis of electronic circuits. Electronic parts can be combined through logic sum (OR), logic product (AND), and logic negation (NOT) operations to form logic gate circuit. Logical circuit can be further constructed into more complicated logical network. Many complex logical relationships can be realized through certain combination of logical circuits, which makes logical circuits possess the capability of logical judging. By this means,logical circuits play critical roles in automatic control. Predicate logic is also called propositional term calculus. In predicate calculus, the internal structure of proposition is divided into the form of “subject” + “predicate”. Proposition is composed of term, logical connectives, and quantifiers. Logical reasoning relationship among propositions is hereby explored. Propositional term is the logical formulation that contains both constants and variables. Constants refer to the objects, quantifier, and relationship that have certainty or precise description. Variables are thought to be creatures but not to any certain ones, which refer to any value within certain range. Propositional terms, different from propositional calculus, do not have “True” or “False”. Propositional term becomes “True” or “False” proposition if variable is replaced with constant. Propositional term becomes universal or existential proposition if universal or existential quantifier is added.

2.1.3 Research History of Mathematical Logic 2.1.3.1

Research History of Mathematical Logic in the World

Although Aristotle and his successors pioneered the systematic research on logic, it was mainly realized by terms in language instead of symbols widely used in the modern mathematical logic. Mathematician, logicians, and researchers in computer found it impossible for such terms to be used in computers. Leibniz was recognized as the very first logician that indicated the necessity for considering symbolic logic, which was reflected in his essay (1666) named “De arte Combinatoria”. In the essay mentioned above, he expressed his belief in the possibility of developing a common scientific language that can economically and effectively dictate reasoning procedures in logic research. Leibniz’s discussions and statements made significant contributions to the creation of symbolic logic and some concepts proposed by him are still playing important roles in contemporary studies in logic. In 1848, George Boole’s book titled “The Mathematical Analysis of Logic, Being an Essay towards a Calculus of Deductive Reasoning” reignited logicians’ interests in symbolic logic. As the second book of Boole’s discussion on algebraic logic, “An Investigation of the Laws of Thought on Which are Founded the Mathematical Theories of Logic and Probabilities” laid the foundation for the discipline of algebraic logic. Augustus De Morgan’s (1806–1871) book of “Formal Logic, or the Calculus of Inference, Necessary and Probable” intended to presents the quantification of the predicate or a concept of “numerically definite syllogism (NDS)”, which significantly advanced the development of symbolic logic. In his later works, Morgan did extensive studies on the relevance logic that was neglected in previous literature. As “the most original and versatile of American philosophers and America’s greatest logician”,3 Charles Sanders Peirce’s (1839–1914) works had made significant contributions to the development of logic into the fields of epistemology and the philosophy of science. His wisdom in seeing the possible connection between logical operations and electrical switching circuit made his prospective thoughts far exceeded what most scholars can imagine in 1880s. Ernst Schröder’s (1841–1904) work of “Vorlesungen Über die Algebra der Logik” provided a complete picture for Boolean algebraic logic. In reality, modern logicians tend to use Boole-Schröder Algebra to name traditional Boolean symbolic logic. Another path for studying symbolic logic was paved by the works of Gottlob Frege and Giuseppe Peano. Peano made pivotal contributions to the foundations of mathematical logic and set theory,4 which was motivated by his aspiration of representing all known formulas and and theorems of mathematical science using Peano notations invented by himself. In Peano et al.’s “Formulaire de mathematiques -Mathematics Form”, working with his collaborators, they aimed to use symbolic language invented by Peano to express then-known main mathematical formulas and theorems.5 In the 3

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

book of “Begriffsschrift-Concept-script”6 published in 1879, Frege presented the formal system. In “Grundgesetze der Arithmetik-Basic Laws of Arithmetic”7 the book with historical importance in logic research, Frege intended to employ basic logical concepts and symbols to completely represent arithmetic. The three-volume work “Principia Mathematica”8 written by Alfred North Whitehead and Russell in 1910, 1912, and 1913, with historical significance in the field of mathematics and philosophy, had popularized the symbolic logic, which was partially attributed to both Peano’s and Frege’s works. Working with Pual Bernays (1888–1977), David Hilbert (1862–1943)9 wrote the book of “Grundlagen der Mathematik-Foundations of Mathematics” with the intention of finding a new way of using symbolic logic to commensurate the subject of mathematics, which later has affected many mathematicians and logicians. The Journal of Symbolic Logic, founded in 1935, is a channel that publishes relevant studies in this area.

2.1.3.2

Research History of Logic and Mathematical Logic in China

Compared to research level in European countries and USA, there still exists gaps in studies of logic in China. In 1950 and 1960s, the main directions of research in logic focused on traditional formal logic, dialectical logic, and history of logic research in China and the size of scholars in modern logic research was very small. In 1978, the 1st National Symposium on Logic Research blew the trumpet for the logicians in China to march towards modernization of logic studies. From 1978 to 1990, research in logic witnessed rapid development and yielded copious achievements. In 1990, an awarding event sponsored by Jin Yuelin Academic Foundation conferred awards to 12 scholars that had made great contributions to logic research and majority of their studies touched various branches in modern logic and kept abreast of global high level of research in relevant areas. From 1990s onward, books and high-tier journal papers in modern logic continued to appear, which included modal logic, tense (temporal) logic, paraconsistent logic, modern inductive logic, logic of language, modern logic history, modern explanation of classic logic theory, and philosophy of logic. The main contributions are reflected in the following areas: 1. Modal logic and temporal logic: A method of developing a model by grafting one model on another one was used to resolve the integrity of system S1. Temporal logic was enriched and advanced by constructing minimal systems based on tense operators of U (until) and S (since) and tense operators of G (“It always will be the case until...”)and H (“It always was the case since...”), respectively.

Paraconsistent logic: Paraconsistent logic coined by Peruvian philosopher Francisco Miró Quesada Cantuarias deals with inconsistent-tolerant systems of logic that rejects the principle of explosion, whose initial discussion could be arguably dated back to 1910. Chinese scholars in the fields of logic and philosophy have developed some new paraconsistent logic such as paraconsistent conditional statement logical system, paraconsistent modal logical system, and paraconsistent temporal logical system. 3. Philosophic logic: Logical formal systems regarding “OR, OR Else” and “Which” were proposed. Neighborhood semantics that can be applied to generic propositional logic was developed, where portrayal framework and integrity of relevance logic were discussed. All existing theories regarding the logic of infinity were investigated for their connections and differences, the proofs for some theorems were provided, and theoretical significance of important results in the logic of infinity was analyzed, which made the logic of infinity become a comprehensive and systematic theory and significantly drove the developments of this theory. 4. Logic of natural language: By employing Mongtague grammar and generalized quantifier method in modern logic, partial statement system for Chinese quantitative phrases was established. Theory of logic concerning correct thinking and successful communication was proposed based modern logic. Liquan Zhou was recognized as the pioneer in the research of logic of natural language in China. In his book titled “Logic-Theory of Correct Thinking and Successful Communication”, Zhou put forward a system of logic of natural language-namely theory of successful communication, which is a two-triple-theory considering logic, grammar, rhetoric, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. He improved the Paul Herbert Grice’s “Cooperative Principle (CP)” and “Theory of Conversational Implicatures (TCI)” and stated that implicature obtained through “CP” is also pragmatic. Zhou indicated that both grammatical implication and semantic entailment are necessary. In Zhou’s opinion, it is not necessary to find implicatures of statements in context although statements’ or proposition’s attitude is necessary. He further developed Frege’s and Strawson’s logical presupposition theory (LPT)10 by defining presupposition based on pre-defined rules for presupposition. He deemed that presupposition is pragmatic because it it related to ‘CP”. Zhou also presented a language communication schema. He contended that successful communication depends on successful conveyance and receiver’s accurate understanding on the intention of sender. The system proposed by Zhou, deeply affected by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel’s (1770–1831) logic, has apparent characteristics of reflection theory (RT). Zhou attempted to organize his theory into a scope system of scientific concepts. Zou Chongli’s main works in logic of natural language are in two books titled “Logic, Language, and Montague Grammar” and “Study on the Logic of Natural Language”. In the first book, Zou investigated challenging problems related to Montague grammar. For example, he simplified the meaning postulates for the 10

Montague P T Q (The Proper Treatment of Quantification in Ordinary English) English sentence system and unified the two meaning postulates that involve common names, intransitive verbs, and individual concepts and proved several relevant inferences as well. He also simplified the description for the meaning postulate involving transitive verb and prepositions. In the works for logic of Chinese language , Zou established partial statement system for capturing quantified meanings of Chinese noun phrases and, especially differentiated the semantic features of specific reference and general reference. He examined the semantic features for the signified reference, generic use reference, indefinite reference, definite reference, and determinate reference in Chinese noun phrases and proposed the schemes for formalizing them. In the second book, Zou explored the semantic characteristics of Chinese tense aspects and employed seven set relationships about time interval in interval semantics (IS) to discuss seven tense types in Chinese-i.e., present, imperfect, future, aorist, perfect, pluperfect, and future perfect. This description can help differentiate the time phase and time system (present, past, and future), which created a exquisite Chinese system. In the semantic model, Zou defined temporal operators such as Pr og, Per f , and Gen and provided new ideas in studying temporal logic. 5. Dialectical logic: In Shunfu Jin’s works represented by two books: “Study on Dialectical Thinking” and “Dialectical Logic”, he thought dialectical logic is a subject about thinking by taking dialectic thinking as its research object. In his view, dialectical logic, being different from materialist dialectics and logic in the strict sense, is a logic with nature of philosophy. The relationship between dialectical logic and dialectics is the one between specific and general scopes while dialectical logic focuses on the dialectics of thinking that is unique to itself. As for issues of dialectical thinking and its models, Jin contended that dialectic thinking is the thinking where people get hold of the wholeness of objects in motion through a series of categories of unity of opposites in the thinking process. This is a thinking model for gaining better understanding on the complicated dynamic systems. Jin presented three basic features of dialectic thinking-i.e., concrete wholeness, complementary opposites, and spiraling upward by negating contradictions and operating mechanisms and their general models. As far as the methods of dialectical logic is concerned, Jin thought that relevant methods could have characteristics from both philosophical epistemology and logic methodology and conducted detailed analysis on those features. Yintong Zhuge argued that the so-called dialectical logic (i.e., logic unified with epistemology and dialectics or the unity of logic and history) is a kind of logic not in studying forms of reasoning but in exploring theory of truth, ideology, and philosophy. Zhuge thought that Hegel’s law of identity (LoI) is nothing but sophistry, which violates common senses and formal logic.

6. Inductive logic: Xiaowu Li proposed a inductive cognitive logic and constructed a inductive logic system with cognitive operators and characterized general connections between probabilistic reasoning. Li introduced measurement function into the relational semantics of model logic. Based on such concept, Li constructed a kind of possible world model and proved that the formal system mentioned above is reliable. Jialong Zhang popularized John Stuart Mill’s (1806–1873) five methods of induction11 and put forward five new inductive reasoning methods-i.e., comparative experiment (CE), joint method of difference and comparison (JMDC), joint method of statistics, agreement, and difference (JMSAD), joint method of sampling and difference (JMSD), and joint method of sampling and comparison (JMSC). 7. History of logic: Yunzhi Zhou systematically studied the development histories of mathematical logic and modal logic. He also conducted a comprehensive review on history of logic in China and published a five-volume masterpiece titled “History of Logic in China”. The book “Ayer” written by Jialong Zhang is a monograph that systematically studies the analytical philosophy of Alfred Jules Ayer (1910–1989). In the book, Zhang discussed the development process of Ayer’s philosophical thought and described his philosophical features during the period of different philosophical movements. He also compared Ayer’s works with the empiricist tradition in UK and phenomenological traditions in Vienna Circle and indicated that Ayer’s philosophical thoughts were the synthesis of the two traditions, which also put an end for both traditions. Ayer’ s works bestowed a new form on empiricism. In the other book “Bradley”, Jialong Zhang systematically studied the philosophical thoughts of Francis Herbert Bradley (1846–1924) who was representative figure of Neo-Hegelianism. Zhang argued that Bradley’s absolute idealism system was composed of internal-relation-based ontology and epistemology, his theory of logic was constructed by dialectical judgment theory and inference theory, and his ethics was characterized by self-actualization. In the last section of his book, Zhang compared Bradley’s philosophy with that of Hegel’s and clarified the differences and similarities between the two. Lu Wang, in his book “Into Analytical Philosophy”, reviewed relevant thoughts and references for analytical philosophy (AP) and discussed how AP was derived from modern logical ideas and methods. He summarized the significant role of logic in the development of philosophy. He stated that, since Western philosophy originated from ancient Greek philosoph´ιa (ϕιλoσ oϕ´ια, the love of wisdom), the discussions on Western philosophy, especially metaphysics have been focusing on the combination of “nature or essence” and “truth” while translation and understanding of “existence” and “truth” in China severed their organic connections and consequently generated biased and even erroneous thoughts on essential features of Western metaphysics. Yuqing Zhang examined and expanded Youding Shen’s (1909–1989) paradox and proposed non-Z paradox. Zhang also reviewed 11

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

and summarized several famous paradoxes such as Russell’s paradox,12 Youding Shen’s paradox, and Curry’s paradox.13 Xiaowu Li discussed the definition of logic and pointed out that a reliable and complete formal system relative to a model class is called logic. Li also revealed the differences between specific logic and logic as a subject (discipline). Li investigated several popular definitions for logic and showed their limitations. Jialong Zhang discussed the scientificalness of Saul Aaron Kripke’s (1940–) and Hilary Whitehall Putnam’s (1926–2016) essentialism and provided new explanation on essentialism by using possible world semantics (PWS). Shangshui Zhang advanced the research on the reference theory of proper names and indicated that proper names are not the abbreviations of an array of descriptivists but the referents. The development of logic in China has witnessed great success. Philosophers and logicians have introduced principles of logic, logic of philosophy, history of logic, temporal logic, deontic logic, conditional logic, paraconsistent logic, modern deductive logic, modern inductive logic, linguistic logic, and informal logic to China and have conducted independent research accordingly and so far have made great progress in each branch mentioned above. In the study of inductive logic and artificial intelligence, scholars, by combining cognitive science and modern inductive logic, pioneered the new field of applying inductive logic. In the area of linguistic logic, researchers reviewed and evaluated the works and contributions in the area of speech acts theory and pragmatics of world well-known linguistic logicians such as John Langshaw Austin (1911–1960),14 John Rogers Searle (1932–),15 and Daniel Vanderveken (1949–2019).16 Based on the above research, they constructed relevant logic system and carried out in-depth research in meta logic. Some scholars attempted to conduct systematic research on Chinese forms, semantic, and pragmatics by using methods in modern logic and obtained some preliminary results. Philosophical issues related to logic have been explored, which include object of logical study, logical truth, evaluation of formal methods, implication, meaning, and paradox. An in-depth analysis of “possible worlds” was also carried out. In the history of logic, important thoughts in logic from well-known logicians and philosophers such as Frege,17 Georg Henrik von Wright (1916–2003),18 and Willard Van Orman Quine (1908–2000)19 were reviewed and evaluated. As for the future of logic, modern deductive logic has made new progress around the world, where relevant research is being integrated with philosophy of science and epistemology of science. The exploration of modal inductive logic and epistemological inductive logic marks the transition of inductive logic from being mathematics12

oriented to philosophy-oriented. Significant results have been made in philosophical logic and study in cognitive logic has become a hot spot. Different branches in non-monotonic logic have also attracted attentions from scholars. In the research of linguistic logic, semantics theory is experiencing accelerated development and new trend is seen in the combination of semantics and pragmatics. Logic, by combining with modern technology, has become a pivotal role in driving the development of computer science and artificial intelligence, among others. Interdisciplinary research between logic and other subjects such as philosophy, linguistics, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, computer science, law, ethics, economics, and management science is becoming more popular. The relationship between theoretical research of logic and applied research is getting more closer than ever. The research on applied logic theory and application techniques and methods of logic will become a new driving force for the development of logic. Two key research areas of logic in China are as follows: 1. Modern logic Scholars should focus on non-classical logic and explorations on the frontier theories of logic while continuing to emphasizing basic research in mathematical logic. More attentions should be paid to branches of logic that have not yet been given in-depth studies such as dynamic logic (DL), partial logic (PL), deontic logic, conditional logic, and multi-agent cognitive logic (MACL). 2. History of logical thought and comparative logic Main studies can be categorized into following directions: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)

The history of emergence and development of logic in China; Types of reasoning in ancient China; History of the spread and development of western logical thoughts in China; The interaction between logic and cultural construction in China; Thoughts of contemporary world well-known logicians and philosophers; Comparing and summarizing the results of modern and contemporary research in logic; (7) Carrying out research on various branches of logic and promoting the enrichment and perfection of the logic system.

2.1.4 Development of Mathematical Logic Mathematical logic has experienced accelerated development since its inception. Of course, multiple factors have contributed to its growth. For example, the establishment of non-Euclidean geometry makes researchers investigate the consistency of mathematics for both non-Euclidean geometry and Euclidean geometry, which, as a results, drove the development of mathematical logic. The emergence of set theory was one of the significant events over the course of modern mathematics development. However, in the research of set theory, the paradox of set theory created the so-called third crisis in the history of mathematics. In 1903, the Britain idealism philosopher, logician, and mathematician Russell

26

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

raised the “Russell paradox of set theory” which almost shook the cornerstone of mathematics. There are many examples in “Russell paradox”. One of the common examples is the “barber paradox”. One day, a barber living in a village claimed that he only shaves beard for the person who does not shave beard by himself. Then, an issue appeared here whether he will shave beard for himself. He is the person who shaves himself if he shaved his beard. Per his principle, he should not shave himself. However, he becomes the person who does shave himself if he did shave himself. According to his claim, he should shave beard for himself. This generated the paradox, which encouraged many mathematicians to study the consistency of set theory. This consequently led to the generation of axiomatic set theory an important branch in mathematical logic. The birth of non-Euclidean geometry and the finding of paradox of set theory indicated that there exist many issues in the theoretic system of mathematics. In order to examine the consistency of mathematics, the concepts, propositions, and proofs in the theoretic system of mathematics are treated as objects of research. The logical structure and laws of proof in the theoretic system of mathematics are explored, which gave rise to the proof theory another important branch in propositional logic. Recursion theory and model theory are two latest branches in propositional logic. Recursion theory focuses on the study of computability, which has close relationship with the development of computer science. Model theory mainly explores the relationship between formalism system and the mathematical model. The accelerated development of mathematical model benefited from the fact that this subject has made significant impacts on the development of other mathematical branches such as set theory, number theory, algebra, and topology. It has especially driven the rapid development of computer science. Of course, the development of other subjects also pushed the growth of mathematical logic.

2.1.5 Research Status of Mathematical Logic In 20 century, the development of mathematical logic attained great achievements exemplified in the following cases. In 1931, Alfred Gödel put forward the “Gödel’s incompleteness theorems” which include two theorems of mathematical logic that demonstrate the inherent limitations of every formal axiomatic system containing basic arithmetic. The first incompleteness theorem states that no consistent system of axioms whose theorems can be listed by an effective procedure is capable of proving all truths about the arithmetic of the natural numbers. For any such formal system, there will always be statements about the natural numbers that are true, but that are unprovable within the system. The second incompleteness theorem, an extension of the first, shows that the system cannot demonstrate its own consistency. In 1933, Tarski published a very long paper named “The Concept of Truth in Languages of Deductive Sciences”, which laid foundation for the development of logic semantics. In 1937, Alan Turing proposed his work “On computable numbers, with an applica-

tion to the Entscheidungsproblem-decision problem”, which can be regarded as the foundation of computer science and of the artificial intelligence program. In 1920s, Jan Łukasiewicz (1878–1956) invented the Polish parenthesis-free notation for the logical connectives. Logicians in China proposed connective-free propositional logic system where parenthesis can act as connectives. Axiomatic set theory is the research using modern axiomatized method to reestablish Cantor set theory. Recursion theory is also called computability theory, which was derived from the research on algorithm. The major purpose of computability theory is to study computing complexity of computable objects and the structure of uncomputable objects. It is to explore the essence of computability and relative computability. It also serves as the theoretic foundation for computer science. Several precise definitions on essence of computing algorithms were proposed in 1930s, which include λ-definable function, recursive function, Turning computable function, and Post’s recursively enumerable sets, etc. Due to the failure of searching for judging process for system of predicate calculus, people turned to the research on uncomputability and found many uncomputable examples. Model theory is a emerging subject dedicated to studying models of theories in formal language and relationship between models. It is also a theory that examines the relationship between semantical elements (meaning and truth) and syntactical elements (formulas and proofs) of formal language. Modern proof theory was thought to be established by David Hilbert in 1920s. Hilbert proposed the so-called Hilbert’s program for proving that if there is a way to find the finitary proofs of consistency for all the complex formal theories needed by mathematicians. Since 1970s, the major characteristics of research on mathematical logic were to focus on the application of newly-derived approaches and theories to mathematics and computer science. It involves analytics, algebra, topology, and combinatorics. For example, first-order logic has very extensive application in computer science. In China, logicians also made remarkable contributions to the development of mathematical logic. Youding Shen (1908–1989) who was famous for finding “ShenYou-Ding Paradox” in 1950s was the pioneer researcher in mathematical logic. Shen developed a system for logical calculus in 1981, which is a narrow predicate calculus with equivalents. Qingyu Zhang accomplished two main achievements in classic logic: (1) created a first-order logic systems without using connectives and quantifiers, in which unique arrangements for parentheses were used to possess the functions of both connectives and quantifiers, representing new logical symbols and notation systems after Łukasiewicz; (2) Zhang built an axiomatic system Z using general disjunction as initial symbol, which is similar to system AB proposed by Alan Ross Anderson (1925–1973) and Nuel Belnap (1930–). Zhang also opened up a new direction in the field of paraconsistent logic and he created conditional logic PIW and CnW, modal logic CnG  , and temporal logic CnG  H  and CnU S, etc. Jialong Zhang, based on modern logic, constructed a tree-shaped natural deduction system for Aristotelian syllogism (AS) and modal syllogism (MS) and proved “all be valid (ABV)” and excluded “all be invalid (ABI)” using formal exclusion method,

28

2 Short Introduction on the Logic

which resolved the decision problem of categorical syllogism and syllogisms with necessary premises. Zhang also constructed the possible world model (PWM) for syllogisms with necessary premises. Xiaowu Li made the following achievements in logical calculus: (1) constructed several axiomatic systems of infinite logic and proved that these systems have important properties of meta theorem; (2) explored the connections and difference among all known indefinite logic and supplemented the proofs for some theorems in his book “all be valid (ABV)”; (3) reviewed and summarized the relations among the neighborhood semantics, relational semantics, and class-selective semantics for conditional logic and the inclusion relations of the above identified systems; (4) investigated the appropriateness of the subjunctive conditional logic and proposed a conditional logic being capable of capturing subjunctive implication association. Xuegang Wang created the minimal temporal logic G  and H  . In the application of logic, great improvements have been made in the interdisciplinary research between logic and computer science. For instance, in program specification, program function can be described by logical formulas; for semantic characterization of programs, axiomatic semantics of programs can be illustrated by logical system; in program verification and validation, logic theorem proving can be used to replace the proof of program correctness; in automatic theorem proving, principles of logic can be employed to determine the provability; in software development, logic-based formalism can be used to aid the process of development; in the hardware/software (HW/SW) co-design, logical tools can be adopted to conduct feasible HW/SW functional partitioning, etc. Logic is indispensable theoretic foundation and practical tool. The well-known computer scientist John McCarthy ever foretold that the relationship between logic and computer science in 21 century is equivalent to the relationship between mathematical analysis and physics. Nevertheless, logic is not omnipotent. Due to the intrinsic limitations and difficulties of logic and computer science, many problems in computer science can be resolved using logic. For example, logic method can not still resolve the efficiency issue that computer science must consider; logic-based formalism has not yet become the mainstream technology; the proof of correctness of large-scale software is still facing the difficulties of combinatorial explosion. In particular, logic-based artificial intelligence has not gained breakthrough in its development and is even experiencing certain stagnation. “Artificial intelligence and the limits of artificial intelligence” were listed as the prominent issues facing mathematics in 21 century. Therefore, studying on machines that can understand human knowledge and intelligence is the most difficult and complicated issues of human being. We believe that logic will gain more extensive and profound applications than ever in computer science with the development of mathematical logic and continuous driving impacts of computer science on logic. In the early stage of 21 century, the prominent features for the development of mathematical logic are: (1) theories in mathematical logic such as axiomatic set theory, recursive theory, and model theory will gain further improvement and development; (2) the newly developed logic that fits the need of social development will emerge. Mathematical logic will continue to investigate the following issues: (1) studies on independence issues and large cardinal theory are still the two primary themes

29

in axiomatic set theory; (2) computational complexity theory and local theory will be the major fields on which research of computability theory focus, Lachlan’s use of trees (even in 0 -priority arguments) is still the very necessary tool and approach even though it is very complicated in the early stage of 21 century; (3) model theory and it’s associated methodologies might be used to resolve more difficult mathematical problems and frontier issues in modern mathematics; (4) tense logic and deontic logic maybe need to be established and improved; (5) formalism of dialectical logic; (6) logical laws for changes and transformations of things; (7) logical laws for errors. Moreover, different theories in mathematical logic will be integrated, fused, and/or unified to drive the development of mathematical logic. For instance, when studying set theory, recursive theory, decidability of logical reasoning, and computational complexity, new theories and methodologies derived from the above four aspects can be applied to investigate issues and problems in mathematics and computer science. The derived theories involve not only analytics, algebra, extensionics, and combinatorics but also more branches in modern mathematics, which help resolve many difficult mathematical problems and frontier issues in those subjects. In 21 century, the starting point for research in mathematical logic is to use it to investigate and develop the concepts, structures, and frontiers issues in mathematics as well as to provide more practical mathematical models, deduction tools, and computational methods. Theories and methods in mathematical logic are also used to advance the development of different branches in philosophical logic and consequently the development of philosophical logic itself.

2.1.6 Formalism of Dialectical Logic in China Regarding the formalism of dialectical logic, Yizhong Luo made mathematical analysis on “I Ching” and formalized it mathematically. What Luo has done is to integrate dialectical logic into formal calculus of the classic mathematical logic to form a normal/reverse mathematical logic which unifies classic formal logic and dialectical logic and contains the major elements of epistemic logic and dialectical philosophical methodology. Qiguan Gui, for the purpose of realizing formalization of dialectical logic, proposed ten propositions including feasibility of reasonable reconstruction, limitations of law of contradiction, correspondence principle, and non-classic negation. Shunfu Jin pointed out that formalization of dialectical logic is determined by both characteristics of this subject and readiness of the conditions. So far, dialectical logic is still an immature subject with many theoretic issues needing further study and solution. For example, the structure, mechanism, and method for the thinking process of ascending from the abstract to the concrete. Under this circumstance, what kind of formal languages are used to realize formalization. Some scholars have examined the reasoning of dialectical logic and obtained the relationship between research of dialectical logic and creative thinking. Some other scholars have investigated the characteristics and operating mechanisms of

dialectical logic and made significant contributions in the formalization of dialectical logic. This type of research has both theoretical and practical significance. Of course, doubts on the formalization of dialectical logic has been raised by some scholars, too. Zongkuan Zhao, in his book “Introduction of Mathematical Dialectical Logic”, has done pioneering work in the formalization of dialectical logic based on the research of attribute set theory

In theory, the construction for the system of mathematical error logic will consummate the system of error theory and enlarge the research domain of generic logic system. In practice, error logic has been successfully applied to stock and security investment, decision support system, computer science, and artificial intelligence, etc. The development of error logic connectives will become propelling forces for error theory to address more issues and complicated systems.

Error Sets

In order to quantitatively investigate and capture errors, it is necessary to have a set of mathematical methods to describe errors and conduct corresponding operations on errors. In this chapter, we introduce the definition of error sets, operations on error sets, and the laws that those operations must satisfy.

3.1 Concepts of Error Sets This section discusses the concept of error sets, categorization of error sets, and operations on error sets and their corresponding laws.

Definitions

Definition 3.1 Suppose that U (t) is an object set, G(t) is a set of rules for judging # » error, if C = {((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (G  u(t))) | (U (t), S(t), # » p(t), T (t), L(t)) = u(t) ∈ U (t), f ⊆ ×R, x(t) = f (G  u(t))} then C is called an error set defined on U (t) under the rule of judging errors G(t), and UC = {u(t) | (u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) > 0} U Z = {u(t) | (u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) < 0} U L = {u(t) | (u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) = 0}

# » Definition 3.7 Suppose that C1 = {((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f 1 (G 1  # » u(t))) | U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t))=u(t) ∈ U, f 1 ⊆ U × R, x(t)= f 1 (G 1  u(t))} # » # » and C2 = {((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), y(t) = f 2 (G 2  u(t))) | (U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)) = u(t) ∈ U, f 2 ⊆ U × R, y(t) = f 2 (G 2  u(t))}. As ∀u(t) ∈ U , and ∀(u(t), x(t)) ∈ C1 , ∀(u(t), y(t)) ∈ C2 , if both x(t)=y(t) and G 1 = G 2 hold, then C1 and C2 are equal under the rules of judging errors G 1 or G 2 , i.e., C1 = C2 . # » Proposition 3.1 In domain U , if G 1 = G 2 , f 1 = f 2 , C1 = {((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), # » L(t)), x(t) = f 1 (G 1  u(t))) | (U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)) = u(t) ∈ U , f 1 ⊆ U × # » R, x(t) = f 1 (G 1  u(t))} and C2 = {((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), y(t)= f 2 (G 2  # » u(t))) | (U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t))=u(t) ∈ U, f 2 ⊆ U × R, y(t)= f 2 (G 2  u(t))}, and then C1 = C2 , vice versa. Proof With both G 1 = G 2 and f 1 = f 2 . For ∀ u(t) ∈ U, x(t) = f 1 (G 1  u(t))= f 2 (G 2  u(t))=y(t). So, for ∀ u(t) ∈ U , x(t)=y(t) holds when (u(t), x(t)) ∈ C1 and (u(t), y(t)) ∈ C2 . Then C1 = C2 . On the other side, G 1 = G 2 holds if C1 = C2 . And with U if f 1 = f 2 , for ∃ u(t)∈ U, f 1 (G 1  u(t)) = f 2 (G 2  u(t)) holds. So, we have x(t)= y(t) holds when (u(t), x(t)) ∈ C1 and (u(t), y(t)) ∈ C2 . This contradicts the fact that C1 = C2 . Therefore, f 1 = f 2 hold here when C1 = C2 . We conclude that {G 1 = G 2 and f 1 = f 2 }⇔ C1 = C2 . Definition 3.8 If C1 ⊆ C, C1 is called an error subset of C. For simplicity, C1 is called a subset of C. Definition 3.9 If ∀(u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, ∃Tu , Tu (u(t), x(t)) = (u(t), y(t)), y(t) = x(t) does not always hold in U , then C is called a transformable error set. Definition 3.10 If ∀(u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, ∃Tu , y(t)  x(t) holds in U as Tu (u(t), x(t)) = (u(t), y(t)) and y(t) = x(t) does not always hold in U , then C is called an extentionable error set. Definition 3.11 If ∃(u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, there does not exist Tu that makes y(t) < 0 hold when Tu (u(t), x(t)) = (u(t), y(t)), then C is called a dead error set. Definition 3.12 If ∀(u(t), x(t)) ∈ C, there does not exist Tu that makes y(t)  0 hold when Tu (u(t), x(t)) = (u(t), y(t)), then C is called a completely dead error set.

3.2 Transformation of Error Sets As indicated by one of the three laws of dialectics, “the law of the unity and conflict of opposites”, error and correctness always exist in the same context. The conflicting opposites, under certain circumstances, transform to the other side. With lapse of time and change in space, something correct may become erroneous if investigated from different disciplinary perspective or research objective, and vice versa. Therefore, it is necessary to ask the question what the mechanisms or rules for those transformation are. In this chapter, through examining the transformation of error set, we investigate the mechanisms, methodologies, and rules. In our research, we found that the transformation of error sets not only has relationship with element of error set but also has relationship with domain U , G(t) judging rules for errors, and the binary relationship between U and G(t) thereof. # » In the following discussion, ((U, S(t)), p(t), T (t), L(t)), z(t) = f (u(t), G(t))) is expressed by (u(t), x(t)), even simpler as (u, x), G(t) is expressed as G.

3.2.1 Definition of Transformation of Error Sets 1. Definition Definition 3.18 Suppose that C is an error set defined on judging rule G in domain U , if T (C) = {g | c ∈ C, g = T (c)}, then the process of finding solutions for T(C) is called a type of transformation of C.

3.2 Transformation of Error Sets

43

2. Analysis on Definition According to the definition of error set, element c = (u, x) in error set C is a tuple (two elements) composed of element u in object set and element x in R. As u ∈ U, x = f (G  u), therefore in tuple c, u has relationship with domain and x has relationship with both f and G. That is to say the change in c = (u, x) directly affects U , the relationship f , and G. On the other hand, c = (u, x) will change accordingly when any transformation has be made to U , the relationship f , and G. In the definition of transformation, element g is obtained with transformation made on element c in C i.e., g = (v, y) = T (u, x). With the transformation operation on element c = (u, x), we have u → v and x → y. And the element c in C becomes g. Hereby, the following changes will be considered: (1) The change of element in error set i.e., c ∈ C and g ∈ C; (2) The change of element in error set causes the change on U ; (3) The change of element in error set causes the change on rules of jugding error G; (4) The change of element in error set causes the change on f ; (5) The change of element in error set causes the simultaneous change on U and f ; (6) The change of element in error set causes the simultaneous change on f and G; (7) The change of element in error set causes the simultaneous change on U and G; (8) The change of element in error set causes the simultaneous change on U, G, and f. Here we mainly discuss the methods and laws for transforming c = (u, x) to g = (v, y). And we also investigate the transformation methods and laws of inverse change of the above 8 cases i.e.: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8)

The direct transformation of elements in error set C; The change of U ; The change of G; The change of f ; The simultaneous change of U and f ; The simultaneous change of f and G; The simultaneous change of U and G; The simultaneous change of U, G, and f . # » As element c in C, (u, x) = ((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (u(t), G(t))), # » and u = (U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x = x(t) = f (u(t), G(t)). Therefore, the transformation on element of error set can be classified into transformation regarding # » domain U , time t(temporal transformation), entity/thing S(t), space p(t) (spatial transformation), properties T (t), property (attribute) value L(t), error value x(t), error function f , and judging rules G(t), and their combination thereof.

3 Error Sets

3.2.2 Transformation Operations of Error Sets 1. Conjunction of transformations Definition 3.19 Suppose that two transformations T2 and T1 act on an error set C sequentially, then the relationship between T2 and T1 is conjunction noted by T1 )(C) i.e., (T2 ∧ T1 )(C) = T1 (T2 (C)). (T2 ∧ ∼ ∼ 2. Disjunction of transformations Definition 3.20 Suppose that at least one of two transformations T2 and T1 acts on an error set C, then the relationship between T2 and T1 is disjunction noted by T1 )(C) i.e., (T2 ∨ T1 )(C) = T1 (C) ∨ T2 (C). (T2 ∨ ∼ ∼ ∼ 3. Inverse transformation Definition 3.21 If T1 (c1 ) = c2 , T2 (c2 ) = c1 , then we call the relationship between T2 and T1 reciprocal transformation noted by T1 = T2−1 or T2 = T1−1 4. Rules of transformation operations Proposition 3.14 If the action of T1 and T2 on error set C has no sequential order, T1 = T1 ∧ T2 . then T2 ∧ ∼ ∼ Proposition 3.15 If the action of T1 and T2 on error set C has no sequential order, T1 = T1 ∨ T2 . then T2 ∨ ∼ ∼ Proposition 3.16 (T1−1 )−1 = T1 Proof Suppose T1−1 = T2 , then T2−1 = T1 , therefore (T1−1 )−1 (c) = T2−1 (c) = T1 (c).

3.2.3 Types and Operation Rules of Transformation 1. Unit transformation Definition 3.22 If ∀c ∈ C, there is T (c) = c, then T is called the unit transformation of error set C defined on judging rule G in U noted by Td . 2. Displacement transformation Definition 3.23 If ∀c ∈ C, there is T (c) = b, then T is called the displacement transformation of error set C defined on judging rule G in U noted by Tz In the definition, if (1) If ∀c ∈ C, c = b holds, then Tz is degenerated into unit transformation. (2) If ∃c ∈ C, c = b holds, a. If b ∈ / C, then Tz has possibly made transformation on U, f , and G;

3.2 Transformation of Error Sets

45

i. If c = (u 1 , x1 ), b = (u 2 , x2 ), and u 2 ∈ / U , then Tz must have made transformation on domain U ii. If c = (u 1 , x1 ), b = (u 2 , x2 ), and u 2 ∈ U , the Tz may not have transformation on domain U b. If b ∈ C, then Tz has possibly made transformation on elements of error set C, f , and G;

(1) Element displacement transformation Definition 3.24 If Tz makes no transformation on domain U , judging rule G, and relationship f , then Tz has made element transformation on C noted by Tzy . Therefore in C, ∀c1 ∈ C and Tz (c1 ) = c2 , then c2 ∈ C i.e., Tz (u 1 , x1 ) = (u 2 , x2 ) = c2 and c2 ∈ C. Definition 3.25 ∀c ∈ C, there has T (u 1 , x1 ) = (u 2 , −x1 ), then T is called the negative displacement transformation noted by Tz f . Proposition 3.17 Tz f (Cq ) = Cw Proof ∀c1 ∈ Cq , c1 = (u 1 , x1 ), x1 > 0 and Tz f (c1 ) = Tz f (u 1 , x1 ) = (u 2 , −x1 ) = (u 2 , x2 ), x2 = −x1 < 0, i.e., (u 2 , x2 ) ∈ Cw . Therefore Tz f (Cq ) = Cw Proposition 3.18 Suppose (u 1 , x1 ), (u 2 , x2 ) ∈ C, G is a group of scientific rules for judging error set C in domain U, Tzy represents the unit transformation and Tzy (u 1 , x1 ) = (u 2 , x2 ), if x1 = x2 holds, then u 1 = u 2 holds. Proof According to definition 3.22, Tzy does not change domain U , relationship f , and judging rules G of error set C; in U under G when u 1 = u 2 , x1 = x2 , i.e., for (u 1 , x1 ), (u 2 , x2 ), x1 = x2 holds under judging rule G in U , this contradicts the facts that G is scientific in U and relationship f does not change (G has intrisic contradiction or relationship f has been changed), therefore, the above conclusion holds. (2) Domain displacement transformation Definition 3.26 If Tz changes the domain U of C, then Tz is called the domain displacement transformation of error set C defined under judging rules G in domain U noted by Tzl . From definition, Tzl changes domain (regarding G) of error set C. When domain U of C changes, it may, on one side, render G in the new domain invalid or unscientific. On the other side, it is possible to find the (u, x) under judging rule G. (3) Displacement transformation of judging rule G Definition 3.27 If Tz changes the judging rule G of C, then Tz is called the displacement transformation of judging rule G of error set C in domain U noted by Tzg . Based on definition, we know that Tzg will cause the changes of error set C.

3 Error Sets

(4) Displacement transformation of relationship f Definition 3.28 If Tz changes the relationship f of C, then Tz is called the displacement transformation of relationship f of error set C in domain U noted by Tze .

(5) Comprehensive displacement transformation Definition 3.29 If Tz changes any two or more factors among domain U , judging rule G, the relationship f , and element of error set C, then Tz is called the comprehensive displacement transformation of error set C noted by Tzh . Proposition 3.19 Suppose that C J is a classical error set defined under G in domain U, ∀c ∈ C J , Tzh (c) = Tzh (u, x) = (v, y), and the following relationship 

(1) y < x when x > 0 (2) y = x when x = 0

holds, then Tzh (C J ) = C W . (Proof ommited). 3. Decomposition transformation Definition 3.30 If ∀c ∈ C, T (ci ) = {ci1 , ci2 , . . . , cini , }, n i ≥ 2, then T is called the decomposition transformation on error set C noted by T f . In the definition, T f (ci ) = {ci1 , ci2 , . . . , cini , }, n i ≥ 2. If c = (u, x), cik = (vik , xik ), k = 1, 2, . . . , n i , then T f (u i , xi ) = {(vi1 , xi1 ), (vi2 , xi2 ), . . . , (vini , xini )}, ∀ci ∈ C, vik ∈ U holds, k = 1, / U , and 2, . . . , n i , the domain U of error set C does not change; if ∃ci ∈ C, vik ∈ then the domain U of error set C has been changed, at the same time, it may cause the change of judging rule G and relationship f of error set C. There are several types of decomposition as follows:

1. Element decomposition transformation Definition 3.31 If T f does not change the domain U , judging rule G, and relationship f , then T f is called element decomposition transformation noted by T f y . And the # » element in error set C has the formulation of (u, x) = ((U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), # » x(t) = f (u(t), G(t))), i.e., u = (U, S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x = x(t) = f (u(t), G(t)). Therefore, element decomposition transformation can be classified into: domain transformation U , entity/thing transformation S(t), spatial transformation # » p(t), property transformation T (t), property value transformation L(t), error value transformation x(t), error function transformation f , judging rule transformation G(t), and the transformation of their combination thereof (two or more of them combined).

T f y (C1 ∩ C2 ) = T f y (C1 ) ∩ T f y (C2 ). Proof ∵ C1 ∩ C2 = {(u, x) | (u, x) ∈ C1 ∧ (u, x) ∈ C2 } ∴T f y (C1 ∩ C2 ) = T {(u i , xi ) | (u i , xi ) ∈ C1 ∧ (u i , xi ) ∈ C2 } = {(vik , xik ) | (vik , xik ) ∈ T f y (Ci ), ci ∈ C1 ∧ ci ∈ C2 } T f y (C1 ) ∩ T f y (C2 ) = {(vik , xik ) | (vik , xik ) ∈ T f y (C1 ) ∩ (vik , xik ) ∈ T f y (C2 )} ∵ ci ∈ C1 ∧ ci ∈ C2 ∴T f y (Ci ) ⊆ T f y (C1 ) ∧ T f y (Ci ) ⊆ T f y (C2 ) ∴T f y (C1 ∩ C2 ) ⊆ T f y (C1 ) ∩ T f y (C2 ) ∵ ∀ci , c j ∈ C, i  = j, ci  = c j T f y (Ci ) = {Ci1 , Ci2 , . . . , Cin i } T f y (C j ) = {C j1 , C j2 , . . . , C jn j } Cik1  = C jk2 , k1 = 1, 2, . . . , n i , k2 = 1, 2, . . . , n j ∴T f y (C1 ) ∩ T f y (C2 ) ⊆ T f y (C1 ∩ C2 ) ∴T f y (C1 ∩ C2 ) = T f y (C1 ) ∩ T f y (C2 )

Domain decomposition transformation Definition 3.32 If T f changes the domain U of error set C, i.e., T f (U ) = U1 ∪ U2 ∪, . . . , ∪Un , then T f is called domain decomposition transformation noted by T f l . For T f l , it decomposes element c into c1 , c2 , . . . , cn and it may sometimes does not change the particular elment of C but the domain. For example, if the number of element of C is infinite, the derived elements from decomposition transformation are still elements of error set C. 3. Decomposition transformation of relationship f Definition 3.33 If T f changes the relationship f of error set C definfed under G in domain U , i.e., T f ( f ) = f 1 ∪ f 2 ∪, . . . , ∪ f 2 , then T f is called the decomposition transformation of relationship f noted by T f g .

In the definition, for all ci ∈ C, i ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n, . . .}, then Tzu does not make combination transformation on C; for all i ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n, . . .}, at least one element does not belong to C, then it is possible that Tzu has made combination transformation on domain U , jugding rule G, and relationship f . Combination transformation Tzu is actually inverse operation of decomposition transformation T f . Similarly, we can define 1) element combination transformation Tzuy = T f−1 y , 2) domain combination transformation Tzul = T f−1 , 3) combination transformation on relationship T f−1 ly gx , and −1 4) comprehensive combination transformation T f zh .

is to identify the methodology and laws that change error set C into non-erroneous set. Among the element (u, x), domain U , judging rule G, and the relationship f of error set C, it is possible to make transformation on some of them combined or all the factors together. As error set C is a mathematical tool in portraying and modeling errors in reality, the research of transformation on error set is essentially to study the method and laws used to eliminate actual errors ([2–14]). Therefore, we care about the changes of error set when they are individually or jointly affected by transformation(s). Three cases are considered here. First, actual error and transformation method have been known, the objective is to know the laws and results of transformation. Mathematically, in T (C1 )=C2 , T and C1 are given, we ask for C2 . Secondly, actual error and the derived transformation results (or expected results) are given, it attempts to figure out the method and mechanism of transformation. In T (C1 )=C2 , C1 and C2 are given, we ask for T . In the third case, transformation method and transformation results are given, we ask for original actual error. In T (C1 )=C2 , T and C2 are given, we ask for C1 .

3.3 Classic Error Set 3.3.1 Concepts of Classic Error Set From Definition 3.1 we know that: U is an object set, G is a set of rules for judging error, if C J = {(u, x) | u ∈ U, f ⊆ U × {0, 1}, x = f (G  u), then C J is called a “classic error set” defined under judging rule G in domain U . Suppose that erroneous domain of C J is noted by U J C , U J C ={u | (u, x) ∈ C J , x = 1}. And correct domain of C J is noted by U J Z , U J Z ={u | (u, x) ∈ C J , x = 0}. Definition 3.49 Suppose that C J 1 and C J 2 are two classic error sets defined under judging rule G 1 and G 2 in domain U , if ∀(u, x1 ) ∈ C J 1 and (u, x2 ) ∈ C J 2 , x1 = x2 holds, and when G 1 = G 2 , then C J 1 = C J 2 holds. Definition 3.50 Suppose that C J 1 ⊆ C J , then C J 1 is called a classic error subset of C J . In the case of not causing confustion, C J 1 is called a subset of C J . Definition 3.51 Suppose that C J 1 and C J 2 are two classic error subsets defined under judging rule G 1 and G 2 in domain U , if ∀(u, x1 ) ∈ C J 1 , there exists (u, x1 ) ∈ C J 2 , then C J 1 is included in C J 2 , which is noted by C J 1 ⊆ C J 2 or C J 2 ⊇ C J 1 . Suppose that C J 1 , C J 2 , and C J 3 are three classic error subsets defined under judging rule G in domain U and C J 1 ⊆ C J 1 , if C J 1 ⊆ C J 2 and C J 2 ⊆ C J 3 , then C J 1 ⊆ C J 3 holds. Definition 3.52 If a set does not contain any element that belongs to U , it is called a classic error empty set noted by Φ. For any subset C J i , i ∈ {1,2,. . ., n } in C J , there exists Φ ⊆ C J i .

Definition 3.53 Suppose that C J w is an error set defined under judging rule G in domain U , if C J w ={(u, x) |∈ U, x = 0 }, then C J w is called a classic nonerroneous set. Definition 3.54 Suppose that C J q is an error set defined under judging rule G in domain U , if C J 1 ={(u, x) |∈ U, x = 1 }, then C J q is called a classic complete error set. In the following definitions, C J is a classic error set defined under judging rule G in domain U . Definition 3.55 If ∀(u, x) ∈ C J , ∃ transformation Tu , Tu (u, x) = (u, y) and u = u, if y = x does not always hold in U , then C J is called a transformable classic error set. Definition 3.56 If ∀(u, x) ∈ C J , ∃ transformation Tu , Tu (u, x) = (u, y), if y = 0, then C J is called a modifiable classic error set. Definition 3.57 If ∀(u, x) ∈ C J ,  transformation Tu that makes y = 0 hold as Tu (u, x) = (u, y), then C J is called a dead classic error set. Definition 3.58 Suppose that C J 1 and C J 2 are two classic error subsets defined under judging rule G 1 and G 2 in domain U, C J 1 ={(u, x) | u ∈ U, f 1 ⊆ U × {0, 1}, x = f 1 (G 1  u) }, C J 2 ={(u, y) | u ∈ U, f 2 ⊆ U × {0, 1}, y = f 2 (G 2  u) }. If ∀u ∈ U , the following (u, x) ∈ C J 1 , (u, y) ∈ C J 2 , and x ≤ y hold, then there exists C J 1 ≤ C J 2 under judging rules G 1 and G 2 in domain U . For example, C J w is a classic nonerroneous set defined under G 1 in domain U and C J q is a classic complete error set defined under G 2 in domain U , then C J w ≤ C J q . Suppose that C J 1 , C J 2 , and C J 3 are three classic error sets defined under judging rules G 1 , G 2 , and G 3 , then I) C J 1 ≤ C J 1 ; II) If C J 1 ≤ C J 2 and C J 2 ≤ C J 3 , then C J 1 ≤ C J 3 holds.

∵ C J 1 ≤ C J 2, ∴∀u ∈ U, (u, x1 ) ∈ C J 1 , (u, x2 ) ∈ C J 2 , the x1 ≤ x2 holds. Suppose that ∀u ∈ U, (u, y) ∈ C J 1 ∨ C J 2 , Then there exists (u, y) ∈ C J 1 or (u, y) ∈ C J 2 , And: (1) as (u, y) ∈ C J 1 , x1 ≤ y = x2 , (2) as (u, y) ∈ C J 2 , x1 ≤ y = x2 , Combining I) and II), we have C J 1 ≤ C J 1 ∨ C J 2 = C J 2 . Proof is over.

Intersection of classic error sets In Definition 3.16, based on characteristics of classic error set, if f (x, y, G 1 , G 2 )=0, this resorts to the following definition of the intersection of C J 1 and C J 2 defined under judging rules G 1 and G 2 , respectively. Definition 3.60 Suppose that C J 1 and C J 2 are two classic error subsets defined under judging rule G 1 and G 2 in domain U, C J 3 ={(u, z) | (u, x) ∈ C J 1 or (u, y) ∈ C J 2 , z = min[x, y] }, then C J 3 is called the intersection of C J 1 and C J 2 defined under judging rules G 1 and G 2 in domain U , it is noted by C J 3 = C J 1 ∧ C J 2 .

3.4 Fuzzy Error Set From the definition of classic error set, given (u, x) ∈ C J , when x = 0, element (u, x) has no error; if x = 1, element u has error. The establishment of classic error set tells quantitative description on whether an element is erroneous or not. In this case, an element must be wrong or right and there is nothing in between. However, for element u having certain degree of membership that belongs to right or wrong, it cannot be addressed in classic error set as judging rules, in this case, has separated things into dichotomous pairs, i.e., right and wrong. Under certain circumstances, people perceive the object of interest in a vague or fuzzy manner. Therefore, the error may also possess the property of vagueness or fuzziness. In this session, we mainly

Then under judging rules G 1 and G 2 in domain U, C˜1 is less than or equal to C˜2 , note by C˜1 ≤ C˜2 or C˜2 ≥ C˜1 . If ∀u ∈ U , there exists (u, x) ∈ C˜1 and (u, y) ∈ C˜2 that make x < y hold. Then under judging rules G 1 and G 2 in domain U, C˜1 is less than C˜2 , note by C˜1 < C˜2 or C˜2 > C˜1 . Proposition 3.29 Suppose that C˜1 , C˜2 , and C˜3 are three fuzzy sets defined under three judging rules G 1 , G 2 , and G 3 respectively in domain U , the following items hold 1) C˜1 ⊆ C˜1 ; 2) if C˜1 ⊆ C˜2 and C˜2 ⊆ C˜3 , then C˜1 ⊆ C˜3 .

(1) ∀u ∈ U , suppose that (u, y) ∈ C˜1 ∨ C˜2 According to Definition 3.65, y = max(x, x) = x, ∴C˜1 ∨ C˜1 = C˜1 . (2) For ∀u ∈ U , suppose that (u, y) ∈ C˜1 ∨ C˜2 and (u, z) ∈ C˜2 ∨ C˜1 , Based on the definition for union operation: y = max(x1 , x2 ), z = max(x1 , x2 ), ∵ max(x1 , x2 ) = max(x1 , x2 ), ∴y = z, ∴C˜1 ∨ C˜2 = C˜2 ∨ C˜1 .

Proof From definition, we know that C˜1 = {(u, y) | (u, x) ∈ C1 , y = 1 − x} C˜1 = {(u, z) | (u, y) ∈ C1 , z = 1 − y}, ∵ z = 1 − y = 1 − (1 − x) = x. ∴C˜1 = C˜1 ,

3.4.3 Error Set with Critical Points The discussion of fuzzy error set with critical points is omitted because its properties are similar to those of general error set.

3.5 Multivariate Error Set 3.5.1 Concepts In reality, the solutions for many questions are determined by multiple interacting and sometimes mutual constricting factors. For example, in Cartesian coordinate system, (4, 2) and (2, 4) are two distinct points where the x and y axles profiling those points in the two-dimension space have interacting and constricting relationship. In general, it is not possible to investigate the properties of two-dimension space by studying two one-dimension spaces. This can be exemplified by characteristics and relationship between one-variable function and two-variable function, one-variable calculus and two-variable calculus, ordinary differential equation and partial differential equation. Taking another example in daily life, suppose that one wants to pour water from one kettle k1 to another k2 and the precondition is that one can not pour the water into any other container, this case involves multi-factors such as spatial coordinates of two kettles (x1 , y1 , z 1 ) and (x2 , y2 , z 2 ), states of water in two kettles (q-quantity and c-temperature, mineral content), direction of pouring water f , and volume flow rate a. Those factors interact and constrict each other and simultaneously influence the error value of ch(x) (water not being poured from k1 into k2 or from k2 into k1 ) of this matter(or process). The relationship between n-variable error set and (n + 1)-ary relation: the nvariable error set is a special type of (n + 1)-ary relation. Why don’t we replace the research of n-variable error set with the research of (n + 1)-ary relation? This is just like n-variable function is a special (n + 1)-ary relation and we don’t substitute the research of (n + 1)-ary relation for the research of n-variable error set. This is because that studying a special type of relationship is simpler and the expected research findings and implications must be more appropriate and applicable to the particular case or domain.

The relationship between n-variable error set and n-ary function: in n-ary function, we focus on the research on the features of f : An → 1 . While for n-variable error set, we mainly concern the relationships of n-variable sets, method/mechanism and laws of change and transformation of those relationships. In summary, in order to achieve the objective of this research, i.e., avoiding or eliminating errors, it is necessary to study n-variable error set. There are fundamentally different characteristics between one-variable error set and two-variable error set. As there is no much difference in features between two-variable error set and multi-variable error set, we only focus on the introduction of two-variable error set.

3.5.2 Binary Error Set 1. Concept of binary error set Definition 3.68 Suppose that U ⊆ U1 × U2 , C={((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) |, (u 1 (t),  u 2 (t)) ⊆ U, f ⊆ U × R, x(t) = f (u 1 (t), u 2 (t), G) }={(((U1 , S1 (t), p1 , T1 (t),  L 1 (t))=u 1 (t)), (U2 , S2 (t), p2 , T2 (t), L 2 (t))=u 2 (t)), x(t)) | (u 1 (t), u 2 (t))∈ U, f ⊆ U × R, x(t) = f (u 1 (t), u 2 (t), G)}, then C is a binary error set defined under judging rule G in domain U . And Ubc = {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) | ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) > 0} Ubz = {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) | ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) < 0} Ubl = {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) | ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C, x(t) = 0} is respectively called a domain with errors (erroneous domain),10 a domain without errors (correct domain),11 a domain with critical points (critical domain)12 of binary Error Set C.

Error set C under above-mentioned case is respectively called a binary classic error set, a binary fuzzy error set, a binary error set with critical points, a binary complete error set, and a binary set without errors. Definition 3.71 Suppose that C1 and C are two binary error sets if 1) C1 ⊂ C and 2) C1 ⊆ C, then C1 is called a subset of C, and when 1) holds, C1 is called a proper subset of C. 2. Operations on binary error sets (1) Definition of operations on binary error subsets Definition 3.72 Suppose that C is a binary error set, C1 and C2 are two subsets of C, then (a) C1 ∪ C2 = {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) | ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C1 or ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C2 } is called the union of C1 and C2 .

If x(t) < y(t) hold, then C1 is less than C2 noted by C1 < C2 . Here we need to differentiate the distinction among error subset and error set and value of error. Definition 3.74 Suppose that C1 and C2 are two binary error sets defined under judging rules G 1 and G 2 in U ⊆ U1 × U2 , if C3 = {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), z(t)) | (u 1 (t), u 2 (t)) ∈ U, z(t)=max(x(t), y(t))- f (x(t), y(t), G 1 , G 2 ), ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C1 , ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), y(t)) ∈ C2 }, then C3 is called the union of C1 and C2 defined under G 1 and G 2 noted by C3 = C1 ∪ C2 .

When C is classic error set, C= {((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), z(t)) | (u 1 (t), u 2 (t))∈ U , ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C; when x(t) = 1, x(t)=1; when x(t) = 0, z(t) = 1} Definition 3.77 Suppose that C is a binary error set defined in U ⊆ U1 × U2 , if T (C)={g | c ∈ C, g = T (c)}, then the process finding solutions for T (C) is called the transformation on C. This is similar to the transformation on unary error set discussed previously. One can define the conjunction, disjunction, and inverse transformation. (4) Laws of operations on binary error sets Suppose that C1 , C2 , and C3 are three binary error sets defined under judging rules G 1 , G 1 , and G 2 in U ⊆ U1 × U2 , when f (x, y, G 1 , G 2 ) ≡, then (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (g) (h) (i) (j) (k) (l) (m) (n)

relationship). For the element ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), x(t)) ∈ C of binary error set18 is composed of two parts, namely, the element of binary set (u 1 (t), u 2 (t)) and error value x(t) = f ((u 1 (t), u 2 (t)), G) of this element defined under judging rule G in domain U . Therefore, the difference that it has with unary error set resides: 1) the domain is a binary set while the domain of unary error set is a unary set; 2) the element is composed of the element of a binary set and error value of this element defined under judging rule G in domain U , while the element of unary error set is comprised of element of a unary set and error value of this element defined under judging rule G in domain U . As there are essential differences between u ∈ U , and (u 1 (t), u 2 (t)) ∈ U ⊆ U1 × U2 , it is impossible and inappropriate to treat (u 1 (t), u 2 (t)) as an integral part when being investigated. For example, when enlarging domain of error set, the scaling factor for different dimension might be different and the scaling mechanism for different dimension might be absolutely different. The transformations on binary error set are more flexible and more complicated than that of unary error set. Therefore, we are going to address the particular difference of transformation on binary error set.

3.5.3 Types of Transformation on Binary Error Set and Their Laws of Operations 1. Displacement transformation of binary error set Definition 3.78 Suppose that ∀c ∈ C, there exists T (c)=b, then T is called the displacement transformation on C noted by Tz . (1) Domain displacement transformation Definition 3.79 Suppose that Tz changes the domain U ⊆ U1 × U2 of error set C, then Tz is called the domain displacement transformation on C defined under judging rule G in U ⊆ U1 × U2 noted by Tzly . From definition, domain displacement Tzly will change the domain U ⊆ U1 × U2 of error set defined under judging rule G. Because U ⊆ U1 × U2 is a binary set, so the displacement transformations of C have following: 



• Tzly (((U1 , S1 (t), p1 (t), T1 (t), L 1 (t)), (U2 , S2 (t), p2 (t), T2 (t), L 2 (t))), x(t) = 



f (u(t), G(t))) = (((V1 , S1 (t), p1 (t), T1 (t), L 1 (t)), (U2 , S2 (t), p2 (t), T2 (t), L 2 (t))), x(t) = f (u(t), G(t)));

18

From the definition on discrete mathematical relationship, it is a ternary relationship. However, for the sake of convenience and necessity of investigating the problems while we are quantitatively examining impact of multiple factors on the object of interest and studying the transformation and transfer of error, we call it binary error set.

Transformation Connectives in Error Logic

In the process of studying a complicated system, it is necessary to investigate how the error or failure of one element or multiple elements (or subsystems) of the system can influence its reliability and functionality. In order to identify the errors or failures and consequently eliminate or remove them, we need to find the ways or laws that error is transmitted and transformed in the system. In order to identify and remove error occurred in an element ei of system S, the first step is to decompose system A into a subsystem set containing the subsystem with ei as one part of it; then a non-erroneous subsystem is used to replace ei . For example, a company A experiencing crisis wants to learn the management system of a successful company B, it is not wise to mechanically implant A’s procedures into B’s system without making adaptive changes. Taking another example, regarding the expansion strategy of chain stores, decision makers have to consider the the differences in distinct cultures, religions, social norms, law and regulations, and economic and political contexts and make necessary transformation and changes accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary to examine decomposition transformation, displacement transformation, increase transformation, similarity transformation, destruction transformation, unit transformation, and their corresponding inverse transformations (if necessary) of those successful management systems and the management systems experiencing crises. Error logic is to explore thinking forms, thinking methods and laws, and valid reasoning of related propositions for static and dynamic transformation relationships of intra- and inter-errors in a given system. According to the range of truth values in error logic, error logic can be categorized into: error binary-value logic, fuzzy error logic, and error logic with critical points.

Principles and Types of Decomposition Transformation in Error Logic

1. Principles of decomposition transformation: (1) Actual needs; (2) Feasibility of actual conditions and resources; (3) Minimum cost. 2. Ways of decomposition transformation: (1) Physical decomposition: suppose that μ is a diesel-powered vehicle, μ can be decomposed into cooling system, fuel supply system, electronic control system, and transmission system, etc. In general, the object of interest μ(t) not only has vertical and horizontal structure but also contains many hierarchies and complicated relationships. Please refer to Fig. 4.1 (2) Mathematical decomposition: if the object of interests is a given mathematical equation such as differential equation, difference equation, common algebra equation or other equation: . μ(t) : x = f (t, x) + g(t, x); . μ(t) : x(k + 1) = Ax(k); .....................; μ(t) : x = f (x1 , x2 , . . . , xn ); We can decompose the object according to Lyapunov approach accordingly. (3) Decomposing based on actual needs and requirements (4) Comprehensive decomposition: base on the definition for T f and the ele# » # » ments of A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f ((μ(t), p(t)), G(t))), decomposition transformation can be conducted on the universe of discourse U (t), object μ(t), error value x(t), error function f , time t, and # » rule G(t) for judging errors of A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = # » f ((μ(t), p(t)), G(t))), therefore, T f ⊆ {T f ly , T f sw , T f k j , T f t x , T f lz , T f cz , T f gz , T f hs , T f s j , T f q }. The type of error logical variable of A((U (t), S(t), # » # » p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f ((μ(t), p(t)), G(t))) does not change if decomposition transformation is not carried out on error function f .

4.2.4.3

Ways of Spatial Decomposition in Error Logic

2. Ways of spatial decomposition: (1) Physical decomposition: For example, if the things of interest are a group of warehouses, they can be spatially located in different regions according to principles of minimizing logistic costs. (2) Mathematical decomposition: For example, . μ(t) : x = f (t, x) + g(t, x); .

μ(t) : x(k + 1) = Ax(k); .....................; μ(t) : x = f (x1 , x2 , . . . , xn ); Decomposition can be conducted according to Lyapunov approach. (3) Decomposition based on actual needs; (4) Equal division: # » # » (a) in {A1 ((U1 (t), S1 (t), p1 (t), T1 (t), L 1 (t)), x1 (t) = f 1 ((μ1 (t), p1 (t)), G 1 (t))), # » # » A2 ((U2 (t), S2 (t), p2 (t), T2 (t), L 2 (t)), x2 (t) = f 2 ((μ2 (t), p2 (t), G 2 (t))),

.....................; μ(t) : x = f (x1 , x2 , . . . , xn ); Decomposition can be conducted according to Lyapunov approach. (3) Decomposition based on actual needs; (4) Equal division: # » # » (a) in {A1 ((U1 (t), S1 (t), p1 (t), T1 (t), L 1 (t)), x1 (t) = f 1 ((μ1 (t), p1 (t)), G 1 (t))), # » # » A2 ((U2 (t), S2 (t), p2 (t), T2 (t), L 2 (t)), x2 (t) = f 2 ((μ2 (t), p2 (t), G 2 (t))), # » # » . . . . . . , An ((Un (t), Sn (t), pn (t), Tn (t), L n (t)), xn (t) = f n ((μn (t), pn (t), G n (t)))}, xi (t) = x j (t)i, j ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n}; (5) Unequal division:

# » # » (a) in {A1 ((U1 (t), S1 (t), p1 (t), T1 (t), L 1 (t)), x1 (t) = f 1 ((μ1 (t), p1 (t)), G 1 (t))), # » # » A2 ((U2 (t), S2 (t), p2 (t), T2 (t), L 2 (t)), x2 (t) = f 2 ((μ2 (t), p2 (t), G 2 (t))), # » # » . . . . . . , An ((Un (t), Sn (t), pn (t), Tn (t), L n (t)), xn (t) = f n ((μn (t), pn (t), G n (t)))}, xi (t) = x j (t) or L i (t) = L j (t)i, j ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n};

Ways of Time Decomposition in Error Logic

2. Ways of time decomposition: (1) Mathematical decomposition: For example, . μ(t) : x = f (t, x) + g(t, x); .

μ(t) : x(k + 1) = Ax(k); .....................; μ(t) : x = f (x1 , x2 , . . . , xn ); Decomposition can be conducted according to Lyapunov approach. (2) Decomposition based on actual needs; (3) Equal division: # » # » (a) in {A1 ((U1 (t1 ), S1 (t1 ), p1 (t1 ), T1 (t1 ), L 1 (t1 )), x1 (t1 ) = f 1 ((μ1 (t1 ), p1 (t1 )), # » G A1 (t1 ))), A2 ((U2 (t2 ), S2 (t2 ), p2 (t2 ), T2 (t2 ), L 2 (t2 )), x2 (t2 ) = f 2 ((μ2 (t2 ), # » # » p2 (t2 ), G A2 (t2 ))), . . . , An ((Un (tn ), Sn (tn ), pn (tn ), Tn (tn ), L n (tn )), xn (tn ) = # » f n ((μn (tn ), pn (tn ), G An (tn )))}, if ti = t j ; i, j ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n}; (4) Unequal division:

# » # » (a) in {A1 ((U1 (t1 ), S1 (t1 ), p1 (t1 ), T1 (t1 ), L 1 (t1 )), x1 (t1 ) = f 1 ((μ1 (t1 ), p1 (t1 )), # » G A1 (t1 ))), A2 ((U2 (t2 ), S2 (t2 ), p2 (t2 ), T2 (t2 ), L 2 (t2 )), x2 (t2 ) = f 2 ((μ2 (t2 ), # » # » p2 (t2 ), G A2 (t2 ))), . . . , An ((Un (tn ), Sn (tn ), pn (tn ), Tn (tn ), L n (tn )), xn (tn ) = # » f n ((μn (tn ), pn (tn ), G An (tn )))}, if ti = t j ; i, j ∈ {1, 2, . . . , n};

Principles for Displacement Decomposition in Error Logic

The principles for displacement decomposition are: (1) Actual needs; (2) Feasibility of actual conditions; (3) The minimum cost.

4.3.1.2

Types of Displacement Transformation in Error Logic

In general, the object of interest u(t) not only has vertical and horizontal structures but also contains many hierarchies and relationships. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct displacement transformation at different hierarchies. Suppose that in {Ai ((Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} and {B j ((U j , S jv (t), #p jv», T jv (t), L jv (t)), y j (t) = g j (v j (t), G j B (t))), j=1, 2, . . . , m}: (1) {u i (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {v j (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the domain displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzly . In this case U (t) ∩ V (t) = Φ or U (t) ∩ V (t) = Φ. For example, when discussing issues related to human resource in China, suppose that domain Shanghai U (t) and domain China V (t) are two domains, V (t) can be used to replace U (t). (2) {Siu (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {S jv (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the thing displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzsw . In this case, the displacement transformation is conducted on thing in (Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t),

L iu (t)) to achieve the expected goal. (3) { #piu», i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → { #p jv», j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the spatial displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzk j . In this case, the displacement transformation is carried out on the location of thing in (Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)) to achieve the expected goal. (4) {Tiu , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {T jv , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the property displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzt z . In this case, the displacement transformation is conducted on the property of thing in (Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)) to achieve the expected goal. For example, the length Tu (t) and width Tv (t) are volume property of a product, sometimes it is appropriate to replace Tu (t) with Tv (t). (5) {L iu , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {L jv , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the property (or attribute) value displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzlz . In this case, the displacement transformation is carried out on the property (attribute) value of property T (t) in (Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)) to achieve the expected goal. For example, the property (attribute) value of length Tu (t) and the property (attribute) value of width Tv (t) can be exchanged. (6) {xi (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {y j (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the error value displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzcz . In this case, the displacement transformation is carried out on the error value in (Ui , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)) to achieve the expected goal. For example, we hope to use the anticipated error value {y j (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m} to replace the undesirable error value {xi (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m}. (7) {G i A (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {G j B (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the rule displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzgz . In this case, the displacement transformation is carried out on the rule to achieve the expected goal. For example, the modified constitution G 2 in 2004 in China is a modification for constitution G 1 (t) in 2003, which was a typical case of rule displacement transformation for serving the emerging needs of social and economic development. 8) { f i , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {g j , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, Tz is called the error function displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzhs . In this case, the displacement transformation is implemented on error function to achieve the expected goal. 9) t A → t B is called the temporal displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzs j . In this case, the displacement transformation is conducted on time to achieve the expected goal.

Suppose that that displacement transformation connective Tz has enabled the following transformations-i.e., {u i (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {v j (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, thing {Siu (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {S jv (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, space { #piu», i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → { #p jv», j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, property {Tiu , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {T jv , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, property (or attribute) value {L iu , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {L jv , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, error function { f i , i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {g j , j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, error value {xi (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {y j (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, rule {G i A (t), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} → {G j B (t), j = 1, 2, . . . , m}, time t A → t B , then Tz is called the overall displacement transformation with respect to G A (t) and {Ai ((Vi , Siu (t), #piu», Tiu (t), L iu (t)), xi (t) = f i (u i (t), G i A (t))), i = 1, 2, . . . , m} noted by Tzq . In this situation, the displacement transformation is conducted on domain, thing, space, property, property (attribute) value, error function, error value, time, and rules for judging errors to achieve the expected goal. Here, the displacement transformation connectives are Tz ⊆ {Tzly , Tzsw , Tzk j , Tzt z , Tzlz , Tzcz , Tzgz , Tzhs , Tzs j , Tzq } (displacement transformation) and Tz−1 (inverse displacement transformation connectives).

4.5.2 Principles for Destruction Transformation in Error Logic The principles for destruction transformation are: (1) Actual needs; (2) Feasibility of actual conditions; (3) The minimum cost.

4.5.3 Approaches of Destruction Transformation in Error Logic There are many different ways to conduct destruction transformation, which are: { abolish, annihilate, decimate, disappear, discard, destroy, eliminate, eradicate, erase, exterminate, extinguish, extirpate, kill, leave, uproot, do away with, get rid of, move away, sell out, weed out, wipe out }

4.5.4 Hierarchy of Destruction Transformation in Error Logic In general, the object of interest μ(t) has both vertical and horizontal structures and multiple hierarchical relationships as well. Therefore, destruction transformation can also be carried out in different hierarchies.

Mathematical Error Propositional Logic

Mathematical error propositional logic is a subject that uses mathematics and semantics to examine the reasoning forms and laws of error compound propositions and logical relationships between error propositions, which is a thinking form that uses object and rules to judge and evaluate erroneous structure of the entity of interests. This chapter mainly discusses concept, connectives, truth value table, logical forms, and effective reasoning methods related to mathematical error propositional logic.

5.6 Basic Rules for Error Logical Reasoning 5.6.1 Axiom Set The axiom set here is the set composed of the axioms and permanently true formulas obtained through exerting correct logical reasoning on proven premises. Apparently, this set is open because newly obtained tautological formulas can be continually added to this set.

5.6.2 Reasoning Rules In the process of logical reasoning, starting from the true premises, correct logical reasoning mechanisms are used to obtain the true conclusion, where correct logical reasoning is the necessary condition for obtaining true conclusion(s). Correct logical reasoning forms are the reasoning rules. This section focuses on the discussion of reasoning rules.

5 Mathematical Error Propositional Logic

5.8 Error Predicate Logic Mathematical error predicate logic is the subject that uses mathematics and semantics to examine the forms and laws for error proposition reasoning, which contain value of the property or attribute, domain, thing, space, property, logical value, function, time, error value, and rules for judging error. It is a kind of thinking that employs object and judging rules to evaluate and justify the erroneous structure of certain phenomenon and/or problem of interests. For the mathematical error predicate logic, we mainly discuss its concept, parameters, subject, value of the property or attributes, the semantic structure and explanation of predicate, connectives, truth table, and logical forms and its effective reasoning forms and judging methods.

5.8.1 Forms of Error Predicate Logic 5.8.1.1

Concept of Error Predicate Logic

# » Definition 5.30 Suppose that A(μ(t), x(t)) = A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))), x(t) ∈ (−∞, +∞), where U (t) is the domain or universe # » of discourse for μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), S(t) is the thing or subject, # » p(t) is the spatial location and direction, T (t) is the property or predicate, L(t) is the predicate, x(t) = f (μ(t), G A (t)) is the truth value or truth value function of # » μ(t) = (U (t), S(t), p(t), G(t) is the rule for judging error defined in domain U (t); domain is called the universe of discourse, thing is called the subject; property, value # » of the property or attribute, and rules are called predicate, A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))) is called the error logic predicate variable defined in U (t) under the rule of judging errors G(t). # » Definition 5.31 Suppose that A(μ(t), x(t)) = A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))), x(t) ∈ (−∞, +∞), is the error logic predicate variable defined in U (t) (domain) under the rule of judging errors G(t). The set composed of all error logic predicate variables defined in U (t) under the rule of judging errors G(t) is called variable set of error logic predicate, which is noted by C.

5.8.1.2

Subject, Predicate, and Quantifier of Error Logic

Subject, predicate, and quantifier in error logical proposition are three principal elements in forming error logical simple propositions, which each has different types and logical characteristics. The subject in error logical proposition is the thing that is in the objects being judged, which could be single element or set, unitary or pluralistic. Taking postgraduates in 2003 at X X X University as the object of interests, in A(μ(t), x(t)) = # » A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))), U (t) = {postgraduates in

2003 at X X X University }, S(t) = postgraduates A in College of Business at X X X # » University in 2003, p(t) = College of Business at X X X University, Guangzhou, China, T (t) = { health status (in2004), GPA (in2004)}, L(t) = { healthy (in2004), 3.8 (in2004)}, f ∈ {χ (u), μ(u), f 1 , f 2 , . . . , f i }, G(t) = rules for evaluating outstanding postgraduates (in 2004). For postgraduate A in 2003 College of Business at X X X University, error logical propositional variable becomes an error logical proposition if an array of explanations is given. Given the definition, the proposition is stated as: postgraduate A in School of Economics and Management at Guangdong University of Technology in 2003 is the outstanding postgraduate. If # » S(t) = {S1 (t), S2 (t), . . . , Sk (t)}, then A((μ(t), x(t)) = A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))) is called the error logical propositional variable with pluralistic predicate. Predicate in error logical proposition is the term that reflects the relationship between attribute of thing and the rules for judging errors of the object being # » evaluated and justified. It includes p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t), f (μ(t), G(t)), and G(t) # » in A((μ(t), x(t)) = A((U (t), S(t), p(t), T (t), L(t)), x(t) = f (μ(t), G(t))). Like classic mathematical logic, fuzzy logic, and dialectic logic, the predicates in error logical proposition also have unitary, pluralistic, first-order, and high-order predicate. Moreover, there are classic predicate, fuzzy predicate, and predicate with critical points for error logical proposition.

6.1 Applying Error Matrix Equation to Investigate Urban Traffic Congestion Many cities around the world have been affected by traffic congestion. In order to resolve this problem, some cities have resorted to the development of intelligent transportation systems(ITS) which help analyze the issue and identify the root cause and offer feasible solution for the problem. Error matrix equation provides an operable means to find the solution sets for addressing traffic congestion issues by solving relevant equation. For an error system, in order to establish a decision support system for avoiding or eliminating errors, the necessary steps include: 1. To find out all error types in this error system 2. To identify the conditions under which each type of error occurs (1) External conditions; (2) Internal conditions 3. To find out the causes for each type of error (1) Causes from external environments; (2) Causes within internal environments; 4. For each type of error, according to their corresponding conditions and evaluation indicators, “15-6-3” methodology in our error theory or error matrix equation is employed to find out the solution sets for avoiding or eliminating this type of error and then solution subset for meeting predefined assessment indicators are chosen and ordered in certain sequence. Let’s consider the specific steps for building a decision support system to help reduce traffic congestion.

6.1.3 Modeling Error-elimination for a Urban Traffic Intersection Figure 6.1 presents the illustration for a typical urban traffic intersection. 1. Average traffic volume per hour Table 6.1 tabulates the data at the road intersection. 2. Calculation for the time spent of eastbound vehicles Table 6.2 tabulates the time spent of eastbound vehicles at the road intersection. Based on the observation in Table 6.1, we can find that the waiting time spent at the straight lanes are the longest since the traffic volumes for east/westbound directions are very large and the signal-light time is longer than that of south/northbound traffic lights. Since right turn is not affected by traffic light, the waiting time for right turn is the shortest among three types of lanes. 3. Traffic capacity at the intersection (1) Straight lane capacity (a) Eastbound capacity: C E S = 1560v/ h (b) Westbound capacity: C W S = 1820v/ h (c) South/northbound capacity: C SS = 782v/ h

According solution-finding process for the four-direction lanes, for the first-layer (in terms of target system) decision set, the target state is to lower the V /C for right turn lanes of eastbound, westbound, and southbound directions and the straight lanes of eastbound and southbound directions to be within the range of (0, 0.6] which is the C level LOS. This example is an application of searching for error-elimination (avoidance) solution set at the first layer of the target system. Regarding the first-layer solution set, properties for the issue of interest can be further divided (or decomposed) to define second-layer target state and current matrices and to find solutions for the newly-constructed matrix equations. Finally, the opportune solution sets of the issue in discussion are confirmed and presented to inform decision. In our error logical transformation system (Chap. 4), six principal transformations and their inverse transformations can be employed to solve for matrix equations, we can have more satisfactory solutions, which can be ordered based on given criteria. Since this example is just a demonstration on how to use error matrix equations to tackle practical issues, we admit that finding satisfactory solutions for an intersection of a complicated urban transportation system does not necessarily reduce traffic congestion at the system level because any action on the element or subsystem of a system may cause new states or imbalance. Of course, we can consider using error system theory to build system-level model and address the issues accordingly.

6.2 Computerized Error Logical Reasoning As a recently developed original theory, the objective of error theory is to employ theories, approaches, and research literature in mathematics and logic to examine various errors in different fields and to consequently establish a unique theoretic system for error studies. In recent years, error theory has been recognized as one of the five emerging fundamental subjects related to artificial intelligence developed in China. Since error theory’s advent in 1980s, it had developed “15-6-3” and “error matrix” approaches. These approaches laid the theoretic foundation for the expert

system that employs computer to help eliminate and remove errors in socioeconomic systems. In the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI), expert system is a pivotal part and knowledge database is the core and foundation for expert system. The research contents of expert system mainly include acquisition of knowledge, expression of knowledge, and application and handling of knowledge. The commonly-used expression approaches of knowledge in AI include: predicate logic representation, production rule representation, semantic net, frame knowledge representation, object-oriented knowledge representation, relation model, and ontologybased knowledge representation. Knowledge expression, to a great extent, determines whether the problems can be solved or program can be executed. It is necessary to choose and design a practical expression model as correct knowledge structure is extremely critical. The factors need to considered include but not limited to: (1) if the expression is accurate and efficient; (2) if the expression rules are simple, understandable, and applicable; (3) easy to carry knowledge expansion and maintenance; (4) easy to realize knowledge access and program execution; (5) support top-down step-wise refinement design principles; (6) meet the universal thinking models of human beings. The error logic and error matrix in error theory provide a new model for knowledge expression and reasoning in AI. This section offers the computerization for knowledge expression based on error logic and error matrix in error theory. We also provide a case in transportation management that demonstrates the computerization process for the knowledge reasoning using error logical equations.

6.2.1 Error Theory-Based Expert System Structure Error-eliminating expert system is to analyze the meaning of each unit in an error matrix using identifiers. Then, computer is used to find the solutions for error matrix based on error-eliminating methods in error matrix. Finally, knowledge reasoning is achieved through solving the transformation matrix equations.

Process of System Implementation

Figure 6.3 provides the flowchart of system implementation. (1) Inputs: according to the structure and storage format of error logic, existing state matrix and expected state matrix are produced by obtaining data inputs from database or user interaction terminals; (2) Applying rule: rules in rulebase are called; new rules will be generated by users in model when rules in current rulebase do not meet the requirements of users and the newly generated rules will then be added to the rulebase;

6.2 Computerized Error Logical Reasoning

529

Fig. 6.3 Error matrix-based error-eliminating expert system

(3) Analyzing error matrix: character strings stored in each unit in error matrix are split using systematic reasoning mechanism, and then the stored contents are identified and analyzed according to the identifiers; (4) Computing and reasoning: having done the analysis on the error matrix, the error matrix solution-finding methods in generic matrix multiplication are used to compute and deduce the results.

6.2.1.2

Database

The database in error-elimination expert system is mainly used to store status information for the convenience of writing/reading. The major item in a database is the access table, which has a “name” column differentiating the status information. “Position” in the table is used to differentiate the current state matrix and expected state matrix that are stored in the storage structure of the model. With the 7 factors in error matrix, the table is stated in Fig. 6.4. When calling the data in the table, the system first obtains the appropriate row in the table by matching the “Name”; “Position” is then used to determine if the current row should be allocated to current state matrix or expected state matrix; finally the 7 factors are referred to read the character string into the model.

6.2.1.3

User Interaction

User interaction is another form to input information into model and construct the current state matrix or expected state matrix. The key step in the process is to translate an object in reality into error matrix and decompose object into the 7 factors that constitute error matrix.

6.2.1.4

Rulebase

Rule is used to store the criteria for deducing error function value in which error function value is derived through applying logical judgment of rule on property (or attribute) value of object in discussion. And rulebase is a database that is used store those rules, which is connected to the system when it is activated and the pertinent rules are called accordingly. 1. Construction of rulebase: Rulebase is used to store rules. Two dimensions are used to profile the rules with the first one describing the practical meaning of rules, i.e., “qualitative description” and the second one describing the mathematical meaning of rules,i.e., “logical expression”. “Qualitative description” works as an identifier to differentiate rules, which has uniqueness without permitting duplication of name. And “logical expression” is the identifier that translates the qualitative description of rules into the logical judgment directly recognized by computer. Simply put, practical meaning of rule is to intuitively label the rule; logical meaning of rule

is used by computer to conduct logical reasoning. Although rules are stored in a format of character string in rulebase, they also have particular forms because they represent a realistic rule. Therefore, in the system design, the “rule type” is used to express the rules. Please refer to Fig. 6.5. 2 New rules: As there are numerous rules in the nature, it is not possible to store all rules in the rulebase. In this rulebase, a rule-generating mechanism is employed to generate new rules that are pertinent to the objects of interest. User can create a piece of rule in the rulebase when current rules can not meet needs and requirements of users. The newly created rule is stored in the rulebase for future use.

6.2.1.5

Model

Model provides the foundation for qualitative reasoning and quantitative computation of the system. In this system, operation of error matrix equation is used to conduct logical reasoning. 1. Error matrix equation Error matrix can not only represent object of interest but also express the transformation connectives proposed in error logic. By combining decomposition transformation, similarity transformation, increase transformation, displacement transformation, destruction transformation, and unit transformation, error matrix can be constructed using error logical variables. For given matrices A and B, X is the method of transforming A into B, then X is called the transformation matrix. By solving the error matrix equations, the specific methods for eliminating errors can be found. In the error matrix-based error-eliminating expert system, system attempts to acquires the meaning of the unit in each row of matrix (i.e., the object of interest) by analyzing the storage type corresponding to particular factor in the 7 factors that constitute error matrix. 2. Storage type of error matrix equation Based on the structure of error matrix, an object can be divided into 7 factors. As each factor has it own specific meaning, the storage types of different factors are different. Therefore, for two matrices representing different meaning, storage types for all factors in the two matrices are of course entirely different. Taking property (attribute) value L(t) as an example, in the current state matrix, L(t)

532

6 Applications of Error Logic

is an observable and determined value; in the expected state matrix, L(t) is an expected value and not a determined value, which is a range. Therefore, based on the meanings represented by different factors in different matrices, we introduce 6 storage type in our error-eliminating expert system. Because all types are stored in the form of character string, a particular identifier is added to each type in order to clarify the corresponding type of the content stored. (1) Numeric type Numeric type is used to store the data having types of int and f loat. Numeric data are inputted in the format of character string and are then transformed into int or f loat type that is identifiable for computer through system analysis and translation. Its format is: “D: stored content”. For example, “D: 234.68” represents that “234.68” is stored a numeric type. (2) Character type Character type is defined to store character string. Its format is: “S: stored content”. Character data are inputted in the format of character string and are then transformed into the type obtained through using the same principles in generating other self-defined storage type. For example, “S: adg78” represents that “adg78” is stored in a type of character string. (3) Matrix type Matrix type is used to store matrix. Being different from other storage type, a second identifier is added behind the first identifier because the contents in a matrix also have certain format. The second identifier is used to depict the type for the contents stored in the matrix, which are integer , f loat, and string. Its format is: “S: A : (2nd identifier) {{. . . . . . } . . . . . . } ” For example, “S: A : ( f loat) {{3.124, 3.258, 3.168}, {1.248, 6.354, 87.65}} ” represents that the store matrix is a 2 × 3 matrix containing f loat type elements noted by   3.124 3.258 3.168   1.248 6.354 87.65 (4) Function type Function type exists depending on the existence of the rule type and data type. It is self-determined by the stored data in the data type location and rules in the rule type location. In classic error function, the result is 0 if data meet the rules and 1 if the data are against the rules. In the fuzzy error function, the degree of error is measured by the deviation between the data and the rules. The fuzzy error function value is obtained by dividing the deviation by the rule if the deviation is less than the value provided by the rules and is 1 otherwise. Its format is: (1) classic error function:“F : {0, 1}”; (2) fuzzy error function:“F : [0, 1]”. For example, in the case of classic error function, the error function value is F : 1 if data D : 528 and rule G :> 925.1. In the case of fuzzy error function, the error function value is F : 0.8311124 if the same data and rule apply.

6.2 Computerized Error Logical Reasoning

533

(5) Rule type In order to deal with error matrix, new “rule type” is defined here. However, rule-type data alone can not provide meaningful expression. Rule-type data must be jointly used with numeric and function type data where rules in ruletype data provide judging conditions, numeric data are used to determine if the conditions are met, and final results are returned by the function. Its format is: “identifier G: & data” and & is the symbol representing judgment. Judgment symbols include: >, ≤, 925.66, its meaning is expounded as follows when considering the judging rule of property (attribute) value: (a) when property (attribute) value ≤ 925.66, the returned result is 0; (b) and when property (attribute) value < 925.66, the returned function value needs to confirm the function type, i.e., the returned result is a value belonging to (0, 1] for fuzzy error function and 1 for classic error function. (6) Range type Range type is defined for storing the property (attribute) value in expectation matrix, which is a new type. As the property (attribute) value in expectation matrix is a expected value having uncertainty, therefore, its value is a range instead of a particular point. Its format is: “R : left limit, right limit”. For example “R : (0.7, 8], its meaning is to store a range from 0.7 to 8 but not including 0.7. 3. System analysis of character string In the expert system, all the inputs are character spring whether the data are retrieved in database or the data are inputted in system by converting thing into 7 factors in error matrix through user-system interaction. The meaning represented by error matrix can not be interpreted without building the analysis mechanism for character string. System analysis of character string can well address this issue, which is the process that user translates the inputted natural language into the data representing the meaning the 7 factors in error matrix intending to deliver. And the most important thing is that those data must be understood by computer program. The procedure is that: (1) system obtains a character string from model; (2) the character string is then split into standalone characters; (3) based on the first character(identifier), the type the character string intending to express is identified; (4) the structure for the stored contents is identified; (5) new character string or character string array is formed by restructuring the characters according to the storage structure; (6) finally they are translated into the actual meaning that those character strings intend to express. The flowchart is shown in Fig. 6.6. Taking rule-type character string “G :≤ 0.6” as an example, after getting this character string from matrix, reasoning machine splits this character string into “G”, “:”, “ a ⎨e f (G, u) = 1 si = a or ⎪ ⎩ (si −a) si < a e f (G, u) =

 1 α(si − a)− β si ≥ a α(a − si )− β si < a 1

(6.11)

(6.12)

α is positive constant and β ≥ 1. (6) Judging rules with range approximation indicator Suppose that judging rules of object system presents range approximation indicator for certain state si , where si ∈ / [a, b], and error value gets larger as si approaches to [a, b]. Under this circumstance, error function can take the forms of fuzzy error function and non-negative error function. While for si ∈ (−∞, +∞), following functions can be used: ⎧ (b−si ) ⎪ si > b ⎨e f (G, u) = 1 (6.13) a ≤ si ≤ b ⎪ ⎩ (si −a) si < a e (7) Judging rules with qualitative indicator Suppose that judging rules of object system include qualitative indicator, error function can take the forms of classic error function:  1 Ga f (G, u) = (6.14) 0 G⇒a

6.4 Error Transmission in a System 6.4.1 Critical Factors for Error Transmission in a System Carrier-borne error in a system is transmitted (or transferred) through structural network to certain element, thereby causing intrinsic function of a system to deviate from its objective function. The transfer of error in a system involves three critical factors, namely, error source, error flow, and error carrier (or vector).

6.4 Error Transmission in a System

549

1. Source of errors: it rises when system elements or their interactions produce non-conforming outcomes or behaviors under given rules; it exists within the system and exerts impacts on the system behaviors and its environment as well, which leads to uncertainty for the system to produce desired function. 2. Error flow: Error in a system can be regarded as a kind of energy or force resided in the error source, which can be measured by an error function and this kind of energy or force is produced due to the state change of internal and/or external environments of the system and is transmitted and spread via system structure by bonding with its vector or carrier. The error-related forces bonded to each functional node of the system are enforced, transformed, and lessened during the transmitting process due to the connections among those tightly coupled interacting nodes, which consequently influence the error states of the whole system. We call this type of error-related forces error flow. Error flow has the characteristics of liquidity, dependency, conductivity, and additivity. 3. Carriers or vectors for errors With the state change of internal and external environments, error flow coming out of error sources is transmitted along system structure by bonding to certain tangible and intangible thing(s) which are called the carrier or vector for errors (or expression form). Based on the existence form of error carriers, they can be categorized into material carrier, capital carrier, technology carrier, information carrier, and behavior carrier, etc. The errors bonded to the carriers mentioned above become capital error flow, technology error flow, information error flow, and material error flow, etc. The above-mentioned examples intend to address how different indicators might exert impacts on error functions. In practice, error functions could have millions of forms. Therefore, the construction and form adoption of error function depend on specific issues and situation. We consider not only the judging rules but also actual needs. The major principle for depicting error function is to objectively evaluate to what extent the object of interest violates the judging rules.

6.4.2 Expression Form for a System Suppose that U (t) ⊆ U1 × U2 × · · · × Ui × · · · Un , n-nary object μ(t) = (μ1 (t), μ2 (t), . . ., μi (t), . . ., μn (t)) stands for the object set defined within U (t), μi ∈ Ui i = −−→ (1, 2, . . ., n), the ith object μi = (Ui (t), Si (t), pi (t), Ti (t), L i (t)), where Si (t) is −−→ thing, pi (t) is spatial location, Ti (t) is property or attribute, and L i (t) are the values of Ti (t). For the ease of studying the transmission mechanism of errors in a system, the subsystem SSi at time point t is represented by a trinary object SSi = (μ1 (t), −−−→ μ2 (t), μ3 (t)), μi j = (Ui j (t), Si j , pi j (t), Ti j (t), L i j (t)), where Si j represents thing that has three elements including the state si (t), output relationship flow R F Oi (t) −−→ and error function X i (t); p j (t) denotes the spatial location of thing; T j (t) stands for

Fig. 6.11 Input and output relationship flows

property vector which mainly includes capital, technology, materials, information, energy, and human resources, etc.; and L j (t) represents the values of T j (t).

6.4.3 Error Transmission Function in a System In general system theory, the interconnections among system elements are bonded by relationship flows such as information flow, material flow, capital flow. As system’s states or behaviors are determined by its structure, the process of realizing system’s function is the process include three primary phases: (1) system receives inputs in the form of materials, energies, and information from external environments; (2) those inputs are processed and transformed; (3) and outputs and outcomes are generated and fed back to the environment in the form of new type of materials, energies, and information. For any node or interacting points of different elements, there must exist input and output flows. Figure 6.11 demonstrates that node μ j receives input R Fi j (t) from node μi at time point t and the output R F jk (t) is obtained through transformation within node μ j , which is then, as an input, fed into node μk . In this process, as far as the μ j is concerned, R Fi j (t) is input relationship flow while R F jk (t) is output relationship flow. Many system-related research have shown that there exists certain functional relationship between system behaviors and system internal structure and system inputs. In our case,the function here can be represented by: R F jk (t) = Ψ j (R Fi j (t), s j (t)) or in a different form as s j (t) = ϕ j (R Fi j (t), R F jk (t)). Error occurred in an element of a system generally is attached to certain relationship flow and transmitted through system structure. Because there exists functional relationship among the connected nodes in a system with errors and matching relationship between heterogeneous errors, different errors in transmission may exert impacts on each other, which consequently changes the flow volume and characteristics of those affected errors. If the errors in input relationship and output relationship can be easily identified via observation while errors in the system’s element are latent (i.e., it is hard to observe or unobservable), the element’s state can be obtained by solving for relationship flow functions and error values can be obtained by building corresponding error functions. In the following example, it is assumed that system is composed of three subsystems SS1 , SS2 , and SS3 in a system with series structure. Errors, by attaching to capital, technology, and materials, etc., become error flows transmitting in SS1 , SS2 , and SS3 . As the transmission of relationship flows follows chronological order, it is assumed that time spent for errors in SS1 and SS2 transmitting to SS2 and SS3 are T12 and

T23 , respectively (Fig. 6.12). The error values in subsystems SS1 , SS2 , and SS3 are X 1 , X 2 , and X 3 , respectively (Fig. 6.12). 1. Error values of each subsystem from initial time to T12 It is assumed that the system of interests gets a signal(action) at the initial time and the error in the system hasn’t been transmitted along certain structure due to the existence of delay. The error values in the system X i (i = 1, 2, 3) functions with respect to their states and corresponding rules. X q = f q (sq , G q ), where G q = (G i1 ,G i2 , . . ., G in represents the rule vector for judging errors system’s states. 2. Error values after T12 As SS1 is the 1st subsystem in the system with series structure, no other error source was fed into SS1 after T12 and therefore SS1 kept its current state. The error in SS1 was transmitted to SS2 via particular path in the system after T12 . The output relationship flow R F O1 of subsystem SS1 is a function of SS1 ’s state and output relationship flow R F O0 of its environment, i.e., R F O1 = ϕ1 (R F O0 , s1 ). As the output relationship flow R F O1 was transmitted to SS2 , the error value of SS2 was not a result from a simple mechanic addition between its original state and the input from R F O1 but a new error value (could be increased, decreased, or tranformed values) generated from system’s state superposition and forced coupling interactions, which is a function of output relationship flow SS1 and state of SS2 as well as the rules applied in it. Hereby we have X 2 = f 12 (R F O1 , s2 , G 2 ). Similarly, the new error value of SS3 after time T12 + T23 is X 3 = f 23 (R F O2 , s3 , G 3 ). And the output relationship flow of SS2 can be represented by R F O2 = ϕ2 (R F O1 , s2 ). 3. Error values of each subsystem after T12 + T23 Since there is no other input from the environment and SS1 and SS2 are 1st and 2nd subsystems, respectively in the assumed series system structure, the error values in SS1 and SS2 did not change after time T12 + T23 , i.e., X 1 = f 1 (s1 , G 1 ) or s1 = g1 (X 1 , G 1 ) X 2 = f 12 (R F O1 , s2 , G 2 ) or s2 = g12 (R F O1 , X 2 , G 2 ) The error value of SS3 is X 3 = f 23 (R F O2 , s3 , G 3 ) which can also be represented by the function of s3 = g23 (R F O2 , X 3 , G 3 ). As the errors had finished the transmission through the whole system structure, the objective function of the system was realized by producing output relationship flow of SS3 by subsystem SS3 , which is denoted by R F O3 = ϕ3 (R F O2 , s3 ). According to the definition of function, the final error value of the system in discussion can be a function of initial input signals (relationship flow from environment) and rules applied in all the relevant hierarchies of the system). X = f (R F O3 , G O3 ) = f (ϕ3 (R F O2 , s3 ), G O3 ) = f (ϕ3 (ϕ2 (R F O1 , s2 ), s3 ), G O3 ) = f (ϕ3 (ϕ2 (ϕ1 (R F O0 , s1 ), s2 ), s3 ), G O3 ) = f (ϕ3 (ϕ2 (ϕ1 (R F O0 , g1 (X 1 , G 1 )), g12 (ϕ1 (R F O0 , g1 (X 1 , G 1 )), X 2 , G 2 )), g23 (ϕ2 (ϕ1 (R F O0 , g1 (X 1 , G 1 )), g12 (g1 (X 1 , G 1 ), X 2 , G 2 )), X 3 , G 3 )), G O3 ).

6.4.4 Application Example for Concept of Error Transmission This section offers a simple example of applying concept of error transmission in enterprise innovation system. An lathe manufacturer signed a technology transfer agreement with university A A A to buy out the patent for a new type of tile press machine with one million RMB (Chinese Yuan). Thereafter, the manufacturer spent 800, 000 RBM to acquire necessary equipment for pilot production of the tile press machine. During the pilot production process, it took 460,000 RMB for the direct costs for production and overhead costs. Due to the existence of flaws in the new technology, the company made revisions and adjustment on the structure and carried out improvement on the production process. The company invested 260, 000 RMB in promotion and produced a batch 20 machine for sale. However, it turned out that most of the pieces were returned for reparation or for refund due to the technological flaws, which ultimately caused the failure of producing this type of product. The failure incurred a loss of three million RMB. This example actually demonstrates an enterprise innovation system having a series structure consisting of R&D subsystem, pilot production subsystem, and sales subsystem (Fig. 6.13). The objective function of this system in discussion is to provide satisfied products for customers. The attainment of the objective function depends on whether the output relationship flows from each of the three subsystems can conform to the rules defined in them. Table 6.6 provides a simple illustration on the rules for judging errors in the output relationship flows. There exists error(s) in the system in discussion since the system did not produce desired results, i.e. satisfied products. According to the system error function mentioned above, the error(s) in the system was determined by the patented technology, error values and rules for judging errors in three subsystems, and the rules for

judging error in the final output relationship flow. With further analysis, the primary reason is that the R&D did not conduct a comprehensive evaluation on the maturity and produciability of the acquired technology, which caused the technology-borne error (flaws) to transmit (transfer) to pilot production subsystem. Although pilot production subsystem conducted improvement on the production process to catering to the needs of new product, the company still produced defective products due to the intrinsic flaws and complexity of the technology. Moreover, with the hasty introduction of new technology, the company did not update their inspection procedures and standards, which caused the defective product-borne error to be transmitted to sales subsystem and consequently to the sites of customers.

6.5 Application of Error Logic in Decision Support System for Nanquan Referees When referees make judgment if there exists foul play in a sport, the referees have to identify the incorrect movements of athlete and consequently impose penalty. For the foul identification and imposition of penalty in incorrect actions of athletes in sports like soccer, basketball, volleyball, rhythmic gymnastics, and martial arts, identification of incorrect actions and wrong movements demands significant work. With the development of high technology, computers and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) are widely used to assist “computerized referee” to impose penalty, which makes the judgment of all kinds of matches more wonderful, scientific, and impartial. However, the judgment on the artistic proficiency and performance of the movements of athletes in the difficulty beauty sports such as rhythmic gymnastics, diving, and martial arts is conducted by multiple referees where the subjectivity of referees created many misjudgment cases. This challenges the justice of this kind of sport. Adoption of “computerized referee” system will significantly advance the sustainable and healthy development of difficulty beauty sports. With the accelerated improvement and upgrading in computer hardware and the ever-upgrading in

tracking techniques and algorithm for human movements, video-based and sensorbased tracking systems have remarkably improved the acquisition of high-quality kinematic data. The extensive investment in R&D of ultra-small sensors and wireless data transmission technologies renders sensor-based human movement tracking system successful. Video-based human movement tracking techniques include the 2D or 3D tracking techniques in monocular or multicular video , which uses the image sequences obtained using 500 frames/s high-speed camera. In two consecutive images, the position of human joint can only change within a very small range. Therefore, the human movement can be accurately tracked and three-dimensional reconstruction can be performed. By continually tracking and positioning human’s movement, the movement trajectory can recorded and kinematic variables such as the 3-D coordinates of joint position and joint angle of human can be obtained. In order to use “computerized referee” to identify and score the foul play or incorrect movement, theory and method in error logic are employed to establish computervision-based model. In martial arts, with continuous improvement and modification in rules of competitive Wushu Taolu (Wushu artistic performance forms), the variation in movement and incorrect movements for each Taolu have been clearly defined and clarified. In the 2005 version of Competition Rules for Competitive Wushu, the scoring rules on the movement quality (Group A) dictate that judgments on movement results only have correct and wrong states with point deduction for wrong movements and no point deduction for correct movements. Each athlete must exercise Taolu in certain pre-determined sequences. This section uses the martial art-Nanquan as object.

(1) When the support is provided by the left leg If zltg > zlxg then thigh of supporting leg is above level; while if zltg ≤ zlxg , then thigh of supporting leg is below level or parallel with court ground. Establishing error function:  0, zltg ≤ zlxg f (u 11 ) = 1, zltg > zlxg If zltg > zlxg , thigh of supporting leg is above level and the value of error function is 1; if zltg ≤ zlxg , thigh of supporting leg is below level or parallel with court ground and the value of error function is 0. (2) When the support is provided by the right leg If zr tg > zr xg then thigh of supporting leg is above level; while if zr tg ≤ zr xg , then thigh of supporting leg is below level or parallel with court ground.

If zr tg > zr xg , thigh of supporting leg is above level and the value of error function is 1; If zr tg ≤ zr xg , thigh of supporting leg is below level or parallel with court ground and the value of error function is 0. Therefore, based the results from (1) and (2), the error function for u 1 is: f (u 1 ) = f (u 11 ) ∨ f (u 12 ). 2. u 2 = forward sweep: sole of sweeping foot off carpet Suppose that domain U1 = forward sweep in optional Nanquan; thing S2 = sweeping foot; property T2 = the plane for the sole of right foot, the plane for the sole of left foot. (1) For left sweeping foot The corresponding plane equation for the sole of left foot is:    x − xl j z1 y − yl j z1 z − zl j z1    xl j z2 − xl j z1 yl j z2 − yl j z1 zl j z2 − zl j z1  = 0   xl j z3 − xl jg1 yl j z3 − yl j z1 zl j z3 − zl j z1  Suppose that the 3-D coordinate for a point on the supporting court ground is P0 (x, y, 0), the distance from P0 to the plane for the sole of left food is dl where, dl =

Establishing error function:  0, dl = 0 f (u 21 ) = 1, dl > 0 If dl > 0, sole of sweeping foot is off carpet and the value of error function is 1; If dl = 0, sole of sweeping foot is not off carpet and the value of error function is 0.

|Ax0 + By0 + C z 0 + D| (A, B, C, and D are the same as that in dl ). √ A2 + B 2 + C 2

dr is the distance between sole of food and court ground: If dr > 0, sole of sweeping foot is off carpet; If dr = 0, sole of sweeping foot is not off carpet. Establishing error function:  f (u 22 ) =

0, dr = 0 1, dr > 0

If dr > 0, sole of sweeping foot is off carpet and the value of error function is 1; If dr = 0, sole of sweeping foot is not off carpet and the value of error function is 0. Therefore, the error function for u 2 is: f (u 2 ) = f (u 21 ) ∨ f (u 22 ). A deviation range can be set for d . 3. u 3 = forward sweep: sweeping leg bent Suppose that domain U1 = forward sweep in optional Nanquan; thing S3 = sweeping foot; property T3 = the 3-D coordinate for the heel of left foot (xl jg , yl jg , zl jg ); the 3-D coordinate for the left knee (xlxg , ylxg , zlxg ); the 3-D coordinate for the left hip joint (xltg , yltg , zltg ); the 3-D coordinate for the heel of right foot (xr jg , yr jg , zr jg ); the 3-D coordinate for the right knee (xr xg , yr xg , zr xg ); and the 3-D coordinate for the right hip joint (xr tg , yr tg , zr tg ).

Computer Vision-based Error Identification Model for Horizontal Nail Kick in Optional Nanquan

In the rules for judging optional Nanquan, the point deduction mainly happens when kicking leg is not kept straight after kick and no nail kicks to opposite side. 1. u 4 = Horizontal nail kick: kicking leg not kept straight after kick Suppose that domain U2 = horizontal nail kick in optional Nanquan; thing S3 = nail kick leg; property T3 = the 3-D coordinate of the left heel is (xl jg , yl jg , zl jg ); the 3-D coordinate of the right heel (xr jg , yr jg , zr jg ); the length of thigh is h 2 and the length of leg is h 2 , then the length of whole leg is (h 2 + h 3 ). According to the movement trajectory, the movements of horizontal nail kick can be divided into three stages: (1) the moment when the tiptoe turns upward and lifts up is (thd0 ), 2) the moment when the lifted leg changes from bent state to become straight is (thd0 + 1), and 3) the moment when the nail kick to opposite side ends is (thd0 + 2). (1) When the nail kick is done by the left leg Suppose that the moment when the tiptoe turns upward and lifts up is (thd0 ), the 3-D coordinate for the left heel is (xl jg0 , yl jg0 , zl jg0 ), the moment when the lifted leg changes from bent state to become straight is (thd0 + 1), the 3-D coordinate for the left heel is (xl jg1 , yl jg1 , zl jg1 ). The 3-D coordinates for the left heels at moments (thd0 ) and (thd0 + 1) determines if the left leg is straight. At moment (thd0 + 1), xl jg1 = xl jg0 , or yl jg1 = yl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or zl jg1 = zl jg0 , the kicking leg is not straight; At moment (thd0 + 1), xl jg1 = xl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg1 = yl jg0 and zl jg1 = zl jg0 , the kicking leg is straight. Establishing error function:  1, xl jg1 = xl jg0 , or yl jg1 = yl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or zl jg1 = zl jg0 ; f (u 41 ) = 0, xl jg1 = xl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg1 = yl jg0 , and zl jg1 = zl jg0 .

If xl jg1 = xl jg0 , or yl jg1 = yl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or zl jg1 = zl jg0 , kicking leg is not kept straight after kick and the value of error function is 1; If xl jg1 = xl jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg1 = yl jg0 , and zl jg1 = zl jg0 , kicking leg is kept straight after kick and the value of error function is 0. When the horizontal nail kick is done by the right leg, the error function is f (u 42 ), similar to the process of establishing error function for the left leg, we obtained the following error function for the right leg:  1, xr jg1 = xr jg0 , or yr jg1 = yr jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or zr jg1 = zr jg0 ; f (u 42 ) = 0, xr jg1 = xr jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yr jg1 = yr jg0 , and zr jg1 = zr jg0 .

If xr jg1 = xr jg0 , or yr jg1 = yr jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or zr jg1 = zr jg0 , kicking leg is not kept straight after kick and the value of error function is 1; If xr jg1 = xr jg0 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yr jg1 = yr jg0 , and zr jg1 = zr jg0 , kicking leg is kept straight after kick and the value of error function is 0. Therefore, the error function for u 4 is f (u 4 ) = f (u 41 ) ∨ f (u 42 ) . 2. u 5 = horizontal nail kick: no nail kick to opposite side Suppose that domain U2 = horizontal nail kick in optional Nanquan; thing S3 = nail kicking leg; property T3 = the 3-D coordinate of the right heel is (xl jg , yl jg , zl jg ); the 3-D coordinate of the right heel (xr jg , yr jg , zr jg ); the length of thigh is h 2 and the length of leg is h 2 , then the length of whole leg is (h 2 + h 3 ). Based on the movement trajectory the nail kicking leg, the displacement of the 3-D coordinates at moments of (thd0 + 1) and (thd0 + 2) can confirm if the nail kick to opposite side has been completed. Suppose that the 3-D coordinate of left heel is (xl jg1 , yl jg1 , zl jg1 ) at time (thd0 + 1) and its coordinate changes to (xl jg2 , yl jg2 , zl jg2 ). At time (thd0 + 2), If xl jg2 = xl jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg1 = yl jg1 , and zl jg2 = zl jg1 at time (thd0 + 2), the movement of nail kick to opposite side has been conducted; If xr jg2 = xr jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or yr jg2 = yr jg1 , or zr jg2 = zr jg1 at time (thd0 + 2), there is no nail kick to opposite side. (1) When the nail kick is done by the left leg Establishing error function:  0, xl jg2 = xl jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg2 = yl jg1 , and zl jg2 = zl jg1 ; f (u 51 ) = 1, xl jg2 = xl jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or yl jg2 = yl jg1 , or zl jg2 = zl jg1 .

If xl jg2 = xl jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yl jg2 = yl jg1 , and zl jg2 = zl jg1 at time moment (thd0 + 2), the movement of nail kick to opposite side has been conducted and the value of error function is 0; If xl jg2 = xl jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or yl jg2 = yl jg1 , or zl jg2 = zl jg1 at time moment (thd0 + 2), there is no nail kick to opposite side and the value of error function is 1.

(2) When the nail kick is done by the right leg Establishing error function: f (u 52 ) =

If xr jg2 = xr jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), and yr jg2 = yr jg1 , and zr jg2 = zr jg1 at time moment (thd0 + 2), the movement of nail kick to opposite side has been conducted and the value of error function is 0; If xr jg2 = xr jg1 − (h 2 + h 3 ), or yr jg2 = yr jg1 , or zr jg2 = zr jg1 at time moment (thd0 + 2) , there is no nail kick to opposite side and the value of error function is 1. Therefore, the error function for u 5 is f (u 5 ) = f (u 51 ) ∨ f (u 52 ) 3. Point deduction model for error in horizontal nail kick in optional Nanquan Per rules, if there are two or more errors in the same movement, 0.1 is deducted. Therefore,in the horizontal nail kick, based on the error functions for different rules, point deduction model for horizontal nail kick is established hereby. Suppose that the object of horizontal nail kick in optional Nanquan is noted by u hd , the total points deducted for horizontal nail kick in optional Nanquan is f (u k f hdi j ), ⎧ ⎪ ⎨0,

The point deducted is 0 when error value is 0, and the point deducted is 0.1 when the error function value is 1. In f (u k f hdi j4 ), i represents the ith point-deduction movement and j stands for the jth deduction point. The total point deducted for u 4 is f (u k f hd4 ), the point deducted for u 41 is f (u k f hd41 ), and the point deducted for u 4 is f (u k f hd42 ); the total point deducted for u 5 is f (u k f hd5 ), the point deducted for u 51 is f (u k f hd51 ), and the point deducted for u 5 is f (u k f hd52 ). From f (u 4 ) = f (u 41 ) ∨ f (u 42 ), the point deduction model for “horizontal nail kick: kicking leg not kept straight after kick” is f (u k f hd4 ) = f (u k f hd41 ) ∨ f (u k f hd42 ); From f (u 5 ) = f (u 51 ) ∨ f (u 52 ), the point deduction model for “horizontal nail kick: kicking leg not kept straight after kick” is f (u k f hd5 ) = f (u k f hd51 ) ∨ f (u k f hd52 ).

According to the rules in horse-riding stance, the correct posture is to keep the torso straight and the error happens when upper body obviously is bent forward. The identification of error is done through investigating the relationship between the y coordinates of shoulder and hip joint. When the torso is straight, the y coordinates for the shoulder and hip joint is very close or have overlap, i.e., yl jb = yltg ± Δ and yr jb = zr tg ± Δ, the ±Δ is upper and lower limits for the difference, the maximum value of Δ is determined by the committee for codifying the rules. When the upper body is obviously bent forward, it is assumed that the “obviously” is defined as exceeding 15 of the thigh length, i.e., h52 . And yltg ≥ yl jb + h52 and yr tg ≥ yr jb + h52 . If yl jb = yltg ± Δ and yr jb = yr tg ± Δ, then there is no “upper body obviously bent forward”; if yltg ≥ yl jb + h52 and yr tg ≥ yr jb + h52 , then there exist “upper body obviously bent forward”.

According the rules in optional Nanquan, after completing the whole movements in bent-knee stance, 0.1 is deducted if there is the error of “knee of rear leg on carpet” or “front leg not bent into near half squat”. 1. Establishing Function for Errors in Dragon-riding Stance. (1) u 31 = dragon-riding stance: knee of rear leg on carpet Suppose that domain U15 = dragon-riding stance in optional Nanquan; thing S25 = the rear leg; property T28 = the 3-D coordinate of the left knee (xlxg , ylxg , zlxg ), the 3-D coordinate of the right knee (xr xg , yr xg , zr xg ). The z coordinate of rear knee can be used to determine if the rear knee is on carpet.

(a) When rear leg in dragon-riding stance is the left leg, the error function is f (u 311 ) If zlxg = 0, rear knee is on carpet; If zlxg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet. Establishing error function:  1, zlxg = 0; f (u 311 ) = 0, zlxg > 0. If zlxg = 0, rear knee is on carpet and the value of error function is 1; If zlxg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet and the value of error function is 0. (b) When rear leg in dragon-riding stance is the right leg, the error function is f (u 312 ) If zr xg = 0, rear knee is on carpet; If zr xg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet. Establishing error function:  f (u 312 ) =

1, zr xg = 0; 0, zr xg > 0.

If zr xg = 0, rear knee is on carpet and the value of error function is 1; If zr xg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet and the value of error function is 0. Therefore, the error function for u 31 is: f (u 31 ) = f (u 311 ) ∨ f (u 312 ). (2) u 32 = dragon-riding stance: front leg not bent into near half squat Suppose that domain U15 = dragon-riding stance in optional Nanquan; thing S26 = front let; property T29 = the 3-D coordinate for the left knee is (xlxg , ylxg , zlxg ), the 3-D coordinate for the hip joint of the left thigh is (xltg , yltg , zltg ), the 3-D coordinate for the right knee is (xr xg , yr xg , zr xg ) , the 3-D coordinate for the hip joint of the right thigh is (xr tg , yr tg , zr tg ). (a) When front leg in dragon-riding stance is the left leg The error function is f (u 321 ), The difference between z coordinates for hip joint and knee can serve as the criteria for judging if there exist the error of “front leg not bent into near half squat”. Suppose that the upper limit (UL) and lower limit (LL) for judging the difference between the two z coordinates for the hip joint and knee are ±Δmm, the maximum value of Δ is determined by the committee for codifying the rules. If zltg = zltg ± Δ, then front leg is bent into near half squat; If zltg > zltg + Δ or zltg < zltg − Δ, then front leg is not bent into near half squat. Establishing error function:  f (u 321 ) =

0, zltg − Δ ≤ zltg ≤ zltg + Δ 1, zltg > zltg + Δ or zltg < zltg − Δ

If zltg − Δ ≤ zltg ≤ zltg + Δ , then front leg is bent into near half squat and the value of error function is 0; If zltg > zltg + Δ or zltg < zltg − Δ , then front leg is not bent into near half squat and the value of error function is 1. (b) When front leg in dragon-riding stance is the right leg, the error function is f (u 322 ) If zr xg = 0, front leg is bent into near half squat; If zr xg > 0, front leg is not bent into near half squat. Establishing error function:  f (u 322 ) =

0, zr tg − Δ ≤ zr tg ≤ zr tg + Δ 1, zr tg > zr tg + Δ or zr tg < zr tg − Δ

If zr tg − Δ ≤ zr tg lezr tg + Δ , then front leg is bent into near half squat and the value of error function is 0; If zr tg > zr tg + Δ or zr tg < zr tg − Δ , then front leg is not bent into near half squat and the value of error function is 1. Therefore, the error function for u 32 is: f (u 32 ) = f (u 321 ) ∨ f (u 322 ). 2. Point deduction model for error in dragon-riding stance in optional Nanquan Per rules in Nanquan, 0.1 is deducted if one error appears for any movement; if there are two or more errors in the same movement, 0.1 is deducted. The point deduction model for dragon-riding stance is established hereby. Suppose that the object of dragon-riding stance in optional Nanquan is noted by u ql .

where i stands for the ith point-deduction movement and j stands for the jth deduction point for the dragon-riding stance. The point deducted is 0 when error value is 0, and the point deducted is 0.1 when the error function value is 1. The total deduction function is f (u k f ql ). In f (u k f i j ), i stands for the ith pointdeduction movement and j stands for the jth deduction point for the dragonriding stance. The point deduction representation for u 31 , u 311 , and u 312 are f (u k f ql31 ), f (u k f ql311 ), and f (u k f ql312 ) respectively. The point deduction representations for u 32 , u 321 , and u 322 are f (u k f ql32 ), f (u k f ql321 ), and f (u k f ql322 ) correspondingly. From f (u 31 ) = f (u 311 ) ∨ f (u 312 ), the point deduction model for “dragonriding stance: knee of rear leg on carpet” is f (u k f ql31 ) = f (u k f ql311 ) ∨ f (u k f ql312 ); From f (u 32 ) = f (u 321 ) ∨ f (u 322 ), the point deduction model for “dragon-riding stance: front leg not bent into near half squat” is f (u k f ql32 ) = f (u k f ql321 ) ∨ f (u k f ql322 ). The point deduction model for dragon-riding stance is: f (u k f ql ) = f (u k f ql31 ) ∨ f (u k f ql32 ).

The total point deduction model for optional Nanquan is: f (u A ) = f (u k f qgs ) + f (u k f hd ) + f (u k f t f ) + f (u k f x f ) + f (u k f tw ) + f (u k f t p ) + f (u k f ly ) + f (u k f tc ) + f (u k f gb ) + f (u k f mb ) + f (u k f xb ) + f (u k f pb ) + f (u k f db ) + f (u k f gub ) + f (u k f ql ). The above session discusses the point deduction model for 15 movements and 32 deduction points in optional Nanquan (A group). In practice, each movement can be divided into n intervals (e.g. 25 intervals in 1 minute) and a sample in an interval can be picked to compute the total deducted points by using the above-mentioned models. For each movement in the routines of optional Nanquan, an error identification model is established. A complete error identification model can be constructed for arranging the individual error identification models according to the sequences of movements in the routines of optional Nanquan. With the help of electronic display system, the points deducted can be displayed on the screen. Therefore, the computer vision-based decision support system for judging optional Nanquan (A group) is realized.

6.5.4 Application of Computer Vision-based Error Identification Model for Optional Nanquan In this example, point deduction model is employed to calculate total points deducted in performing a complete set of movements in the routines of optional Nanquan. The sequence of athlete A performing the movements in the routines of optional Nanquan is as follows: (1) bring feet together and draw fists, (2) cup one fist in the other hand and shake feet, (3) punching in left bow stance, (4) whip boxing in high empty stance, (5) punching in dragon-riding stance, (6) punching in left bow stance, (7) fist chopping in left bow stance, (8) palm cutting in left bow stance, (9) double fist chopping in horse-riding stance, (10) lightning lift of double palms in horse-riding stance, (11) double index fingers pushing in horse-riding stance, (12) lowering palms and striking out in horse-riding stance, (13) raising both fists in right bow stance, (14) elbow striking in dragon-riding stance, (15) fist chopping in empty stance, 16) pushing palm in dragon-riding stance, (17) tornado kick and outward kick in flight, (18) side sole kick in flight with swooping and leg sweeping, (19) kip-up, (20) crane-beak strike in empty stance, (21) double tiger claws with one standing foot, (22) punching in left bow stance, (23) turn body and strike fist back, (24) punching in front kick, (25) vertical strike with heart fist in kneeling stance, (26) pounding fist in dragon-riding stance, (27) fist chopping in horse-riding stance, (28) turn body and vertical strike with left heart fist, (29) horizontal nail kick and punching in right bow stance, (30) slashing double eagle claws, horizontal stepping, pushing double palms, (31) slapping ground in kneeling stance, (32) fist striking and punching in left bow stance, (33) right throwing fist in left bow stance, (34) left throwing fist in right bow stance, (35) vertical strike with heart fist in left bow stance, (36) whipping fist with cross steps, (37) turn body and vertical strike with heart fist, (38) fist throwing and striking in dragging stance, (39) palms striking in

horse-riding stance, (40) fist horizontal sweeping in right bow stance and then fist striking, (41) thrusting fist downward in a seated stance, (42) double-hanging fist in horse-riding stance, (43) double tiger claws in kneeling stance, (44) slapping the instep of right foot, forming half horse-riding stance, punching fist, (45) pressing elbow in single butterfly stance, (46) fist punching in cross steps, (47) fist punching in step forward (48) turn body and vertical strike with palm, (49) fist side punching in horse-riding stance, (50) turn body, fist sweeping around the body, forming right bow stance (51) double index finger pushing in right bow stance, (52) step forward and vertical strike with heart fist, (53) dragging stance and fist throwing and striking, (54) dragging stance and fist punching, (55) cross step, whipping fist, turn body and vertical strike with heart fist, (56) palms lifting in right bow stance, (57) turn body, sweeping fist, step backward, fist punching, (58) double palm pushing in left bow stance, (59) empty stance, palm pushing, fist punching, (60) bring feet together and draw fists. Suppose that there are three errors in the above 60 movements according to the rules in the contest: (1) The 5th movement: the knee of the rear leg is on the carpet in dragon-riding stance and rear leg is right leg; (2) The 19th movement: support with left palm in the kip-up movement; (3) The 42th movement: the distance between feet is too short in horse-riding stance. Based on the model constructed for the routines in optional Nanquan, the point deduction calculation is presented as follows. Several notations need to be clarified: (1) The routines in the optional Nanquan chosen by athlete A should include not only the mandatory 15 movements but also some basic stances, i.e., resting stance (bring feet together), kick forward, seated stance, cross steps, and dragging stance. Point must also be deducted when error appears in one of the basic stances and referee uses the criteria evaluating the technical competency to make judgment. However, in the contest for the routines performance (A group), specific requirements were not listed for exercising point deduction; (2) The routines in the optional Nanquan performed by athlete A do not include the rules for judging hand formations because rules in routines performance of group A do not provide the specific specifications on how much points are deducted in this respect. Referee uses the criteria of evaluating the technical competency to make judgment. In this model, we do not discuss the point deduction for hand formation related errors. Suppose that domain U (t) is the contest for routines performance in optional Nanquan, thing S(t) is athlete A, properties T (t) are the height, the shoulder height, the length of thigh, the length of calf, and the length of feet, property (attribute) values L(t) are h 0 , h 1 , h 2 , h 3 , and h 4 . Suppose that the height of athlete A is 164 cm, the height of shoulder is 140 cm, the length of thigh is 90 cm, the length of calf is 50 cm, then the length of feet is 22 cm, the property logic matrix of athlete A is as follows:

The z coordinate of rear knee can be used to determine if the rear knee is on carpet. If zlxg = 0, rear knee is on carpet; if zlxg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet. Establishing error function:  f (u 51 ) =

1, zlxg = 0; 0, zlxg > 0.

If zlxg = 0, rear knee is on carpet and the value of error function is 1; If zlxg > 0, rear knee is not on carpet and the value of error function is 0. 2. u 191 = support with left palm in the kip-up movement Suppose that domain U7 = lift-up in kip-up; thing S12 = left palm; property T12 = the 3-D coordinate for distal phalanx is (xsh1 , ysh1 , z sh1 ), the 3-D coordinate for capitate is (xsh2 , ysh2 , z sh2 ), and the 3-D coordinate for the center of the palm is (xsh3 , ysh3 , z sh3 ). From the above three coordinate points, a plane can obtained and any point must satisfy the following equation.    x − xlsh1 y − ylsh1 z − zlsh1   xlsh2 − xlsh1 ylsh2 − ylsh1 zlsh2 − zlsh1  = 0   xlsh3 − xlsh1 ylsh3 − ylsh1 zlsh3 − zlsh1  Suppose that the 3-D coordinate for a point on the supporting court ground is P0 (x, y, 0), the distance from P0 to the plane for the left palm is dl where,

dl =

| Ax0 + By0 + C z 0 + D | √ A2 + B 2 + C 2

A = ylsh2 zlsh3 − ylsh2 zlsh1 − ylsh1 zlsh3 − ylsh3 zlsh2 + ylsh3 zlsh1 + ylsh1 zlsh2 ; B = xlsh1 zlsh3 − xlsh1 zlsh2 + xlsh2 zlsh1 − xlsh2 zlsh3 + xlsh3 zlsh2 − xlsh3 zlsh1 ; C = xlsh1 zlsh2 − xlsh1 zlsh3 + xlsh2 zlsh3 − xlsh2 zlsh1 + xlsh3 zlsh1 − xlsh3 zlsh2 ; D = xlsh1 ylsh2 zlsh3 + xlsh1 ylsh3 zlsh2 + xlsh2 ylsh1 zlsh3 − xlsh2 ylsh3 zlsh1 + xlsh3 ylsh2 zlsh1 − xlsh3 ylsh3 zlsh2 . dl is the distance between the left palm and court ground: If dl > 0, there is no support with left palm in the kip-up movement; If dl = 0, there is support with left palm in the kip-up movement. Establishing error function:  f (u 191 ) =

1, dl = 0 0, dl > 0

If dl > 0, there is no support with left palm in the kip-up movement and the value of error function is 0; If dl = 0, there is support with left palm in the kip-up movement and the value of error function is 1. 3. u 424 = distance between feet is too short in horse-riding stance Suppose that domain U10 = horse-riding stance in optional Nanquan; thing S20 = both feet; property T20 = the 3-D coordinate for left heel is (xl jg , yl jg , zl jg ), the 3-D coordinate for right heel is (xr jg , yr jg , zr jg ). According to the rules, the distance between feet should be 3 times of the length of foot. Suppose that the length of food is h 4 = 22 cm. If xl jg =| xl jg ± 66 | cm, the distance between feet is appropriate in horse-riding stance; If xl jg
