This document provides an introduction to fuzzy logic, including its history and applications. It discusses classical logic and its limitations in dealing with uncertain propositions. Multi-valued logics are introduced as an approach to handle indeterminate truth values. Fuzzy logic then allows for gradual assessments between true and false by using membership functions and fuzzy set theory. Conditional and quantified fuzzy propositions are defined along with operations on them. The document concludes by mentioning applications of fuzzy logic in areas like controllers for washing machines and computer engineering.

We can define heteroscedasticity as the condition in which the variance of the error term or the residual term in a regression model varies. As you can see in the above diagram, in the case of homoscedasticity, the data points are equally scattered while in the case of heteroscedasticity, the data points are not equally scattered.
Two Conditions:
1] Known Variance
2] Unknown Variance

Week 3: Section 1.4 Predicates and Quantifiers
Assume that the universe of discourse is all the people who are participating in
this course. Also, let us assume that we know each person in the course. Consider the
following statement: “She/he is over 6 feet tall”. This statement is not a proposition
since we cannot say that it either true or false until we replace the variable (she/he) by a
person’s name. The statement “She/he is over 6 feet tall” may be denoted by the symbol
P(n) where n stands for the variable and P, the predicate, “is over six feet tall”. The
symbol P (or lower case p) is used because once the variable is replaced (by a person’s
name in this case) the above statement becomes a proposition.
For example, if we know that Jim is over 6 feet tall, the statement “Jim is over six
feet tall” is a (true) proposition. The truth set of a predicate is all values in the domain
that make it a true statement. Another example, consider the statement, “for all real
numbers x, x2 –5x + 6 = (x - 2) (x – 3)”. We could let Q(x) stand for x2 –5x + 6 = (x - 2)
(x – 3). Also, we note that the truth values of Q(x) are indeed all real numbers.
Quantifiers:
There are two quantifiers used in mathematics: “for all” and “there exists”. The
symbol used “for all” is an upside down A, namely, . The symbol used for “there
exists” is a backwards E, namely, . We realize that the standard, every day usage of the
English language does not necessarily coincide with the Mathematical usage of English,
so we have to clarify what we mean by the two quantifiers.
For all For every For each For any
There exists at least one There exists There is Some
The table indicates that the mathematical meaning of the universal quantifier, for
all, coincides with our everyday usage of this term. However, the mathematical meaning
of the existential quantifier does not. When we use the word “some” in everyday
language we ordinarily mean two or more; yet, in mathematics the word “some” means at
least one, which is true when there is exactly one.
The Negation of the “For all “Quantifier:
Consider the statement “All people in this course are over 6 feet tall.” Assume it
is false (I am not over six feet tall). How do we prove it is false? All we have to do is to
point to one person to prove the statement is false. That is, all we need to do is give one
counterexample. We need only show that there exists at least one person in this class
who is not over 6 feet tall. Here is a more formal procedure.
Example 1:
Let P(n)stand for “people in this course are over 6 feet tall”, then the sentence
“All people in this course are over 6 feet tall” can be written as: “ n P(n)”. The negative,
“ ( n P(n))”, is equivalent to: “ n( P(n))”. So, in English the negative is, “There is
(there is at least one/ there exists/ some) a person in this room who is not over 6 feet tall.”

Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
4. CLASSICAL LOGIC
Logic is the study of the methods and principles of
reasoning in all its possible forms. Classical logic
deals with propositions that are required to be either
true or false. Each proposition has its opposite,
which is usually called an negation of the
proposition. A proposition and its negation are
required to assume opposite thruth values.
One area of logic, referred to as propositional
logic, deals with combinations of variables that
stand for arbitrary propositions.
5. Two of the many complete sets of
primitives have been predominant
in propotional logic: (i) negation,
conjuction, and disjunction; and (ii)
negation and implication.
When the variable represented by a
logic formula is always true
regardless of the truth values
assigned to the variables
participating in the formulas, it is
called a tautology; when it is
always false, it is called a
contradiction.
7. QUANTIFICATION
Existential quantification of a predicate P(𝑥)
is expressed by the form
∃𝑥 𝑃 𝑥 =
𝑥 ∈ 𝑋
𝑃(𝑥)
Universal quantification of a predicate 𝑃(𝑥)
is expressed by the form
∀𝑥 𝑃 𝑥 =
𝑥 𝜖 𝑋
𝑃 𝑥 .
Existential and Universal Quantification
9. Propositions about future
events are neither actually true
not actually false, but
potentially either; hence, their
truth value is undetermined, at
least prior to the event.
In order to deal with such
propositions, we must relax
the true/false dichotomy of
classical two-valued logic by
allowing a third truth value,
which may be called
indeterminate.
MULTIVALUED
LOGICS
Partly cloudy
11. QUASI-TAUTOLOGY AND QUASI-
CONTRADICTION
We say that a logic formula in a three-valued logic
which does not assume the truth value 0 (falsity)
regardless of the truth values assigned to its
proposition variables is a quasi-tautology.
Similarly, we say that a logic formula which does not
assume the truth value 1 (truth) is a quasi-
contradiction.
12. TRUTH VALUES
The set 𝑇𝑛 of truth values of an n-valued logic is
thus defined as
𝑇𝑛 = 0 =
0
𝑛 − 1
,
1
𝑛 − 1
,
2
𝑛 − 1
, … ,
𝑛 − 2
𝑛 − 1
,
𝑛 − 1
𝑛 − 1
= 1
13. TRUTHVALUE
The n-value logics (𝑛 ≥ 2) uses truth
values in 𝑇𝑛 and defines the primitives
by the following equations:
𝑎 = 1 − 𝑎
𝑎 ∧ 𝑏 = min 𝑎, 𝑏
𝑎 ∨ 𝑏 = max 𝑎, 𝑏
𝑎 ⟹ 𝑏 = min 𝑎, 1 + 𝑏 − 𝑎
𝑎 ⟺ 𝑏 = 1 − 𝑎 − 𝑏
14. INFINITE-VALUE LOGIC
Lukasiewicz used only negation and implication as
primitives
Generally, the term infinite-valued logic is usually
used in the literature to indicate the logic whose
truth values are represented by all the real numbers
in the interval [0, 1]. This is also quite often called
the standard Lukasiewicz logic 𝐿1.

20. CONDITIONAL AND UNQUALIFIEDPROPOSITIONS
Propositions 𝑝 of this type are expressed by the
canonical form
𝑝: if 𝒳 is A, then 𝒴 is B
These propositions may also be viewed as
propositions of the form
(𝒳,𝒴) is R
where
𝑅 𝑥, 𝑦 = 𝒥 𝐴 𝑥 ∙ 𝐵 𝑦
where 𝒥 denotes a binary operation on [0, 1]
representing a suitable fuzzy implication.
23. FUZZY QUANTIFIERS
Fuzzy quantifiers of the first kind are defined on ℝ
and characterize linguistic terms such as about 10,
much more than 100, at least about 5, and so on.
Fuzzy quantifiers of the second kind are defined on
[0, 1] and characterize linguistic terms such as almost
all, about half, most, and so on.
24. There are two basic forms of propositions that
contain fuzzy quantifiers of the first kind. One of
them is the form
𝑝: There are 𝑄 i’s in 𝐼 such that 𝒱 𝑖 is 𝐹
Example:
There are about 10 students in a given class whose
fluency in English is high.
25. Alternatively, we can use
𝑝′: There are 𝑄 E’s
where,
𝐸 𝑖 = 𝐹 𝒱 𝑖
Example:
There are about 10 high-fluency English-speaking
students in a given class.
26. Also, a proposition before can be rewritten
as,
𝑝′: 𝒲 is 𝑄
where, 𝒲 = |𝐸|
𝐸 =
𝑖∈𝐼
𝐸 𝑖 =
𝑖∈𝐼
𝐹 𝒱 𝑖
and,
𝑇 𝑝 = 𝑇 𝑝′ = 𝑄 𝐸
27. EXAMPLE
𝑝: There are about three students in 𝑰 whose
fluency in English, 𝒱 𝑖 , is high.
Assume that 𝐼 = {Adam, Bob, Cathy, David, Eve}, and
𝑉 is a variable with values in the interval [0, 100] that
express degrees of fluency in English. And following
scores are given: 𝒱(Adam) = 35, 𝒱(Bob) = 20,
𝒱(Cathy) = 80, 𝒱(David) = 95, 𝒱(Eve) = 70. Determine
the truth value of the proposition 𝑝.
28.
29. From the graph, we get
𝐸 = 0/Adam + 0/Bob + 0,75/Cathy + 1/David +
0,5/Eve
Then,
𝐸 =
𝑖∈𝐼
𝐸 𝑖 = 2,25
Finally,
𝑇 𝑝 = 𝑄 2,25 = 0,625
30. The second basic form of the first kind of fuzzy
quantifiers can be expressed as
𝑝: There are 𝑖's in 𝐼 such that 𝒱1 𝑖 is 𝐹1 and
𝒱2 𝑖 is 𝐹2
Example:
There are about 10 students in a given class whose
fluency in English is high and who are young.
31. The proposition before also can be expressed as,
𝑝′: 𝑄𝐸1’s 𝐸2’s
where,
𝐸1 𝑖 = 𝐹1 𝒱1 𝑖
𝐸2 𝑖 = 𝐹2 𝒱2 𝑖
or,
𝑝′: There are 𝑄(𝐸1 and 𝐸2)’s.
or
𝑝′: 𝒲 is 𝑄
32. The value 𝒲 and 𝑇 𝑝 can be determined as
𝒲 =
𝑖∈𝐼
min 𝐹1 𝒱1 𝑖 , 𝐹2 𝒱2 𝑖
and,
𝑇 𝑝 = 𝑇 𝑝′ = 𝑄 𝒲
33. FUZZY PROPOSITIONS WITH QUANTIFIERSOF SECOND
KIND
𝑝: Among 𝑖's in 𝐼 such that 𝒱1 1 is 𝐹1 there are 𝑄 𝑖's
in 𝐼 such that 𝒱2 𝑖 is 𝐹2
Or,
𝑝′: 𝑄𝐸1’s are 𝐸2’s
Where,
𝐸1 = 𝐹1 𝒱1 𝑖
𝐸2 = 𝐹2 𝒱2 𝑖
Example: Almost all young students in a given class
are students whose fluency in English is high.
34. Proposition before can be written as,
𝑝′: 𝒲 is 𝑄
where,
𝒲 =
𝐸1 ∩ 𝐸2
𝐸1
And we obtain,
𝒲 =
𝑖∈𝐼 min 𝐹1 𝒱1 𝑖 , 𝐹2 𝒱2 𝑖
𝑖∈𝐼 𝐹1 𝒱1 𝑖
