Using FLOPER for Running/Debugging Fuzzy Logic Programs
Pedro J. Morcillo and Gines Moreno
Fuzzy Logic Programming is an interesting
and still growing research
area that agglutinates the efforts
for introducing fuzzy logic into logic
programming, in order to incorporate
more expressive resources on
such languages for dealing with uncertainty
and approximated reasoning.
The multi-adjoint logic programming
approach represents a recent
and extremely flexible fuzzy
logic paradigm for which, unfortunately,
we have not found practical
tools implemented so far. In this
work we describe a prototype system,
the FLOPER tool, which is
able to directly translate fuzzy logic
programs into Prolog code in order
to safely execute these final programs
inside any standard Prolog interpreter
in a completely transparent
way for the final user. The system
also generates a low-level representation
of the fuzzy code offering
debugging (tracing) capabilities
and opening the door to the design
of more sophisticated program manipulation
tasks such as program optimization,
program specialization
and so on.
