Project description
The possibility to extend the concept of linguistic data summaries employing the bipolarity of user preferences are studied. Yager's linguistic summaries may be derived using a fuzzy linguistic querying interface. We look for a similar analogy between bipolar queries and the extended form of linguistic summaries. We propose an extension of bipolar queries, namely the "contextual" queries and derive from them the "contextual" data summaries..
