The study stands on the standpoint that there exist relationships between real-world structures and their provided information in reality. Such relationships are essential because the natural language plays a specifically vital and crucial role in, e.g., capturing, conveying information, and accumulating knowledge containing useful high-level information. Consequently, it must contain certain semantics structures, including linguistic (L-) variables’ semantic structures, which are fundamental, similar to the math variables’ structures. In this context, the fact that the (L-) variables’ word domains can be formalized as algebraic semantics-based structures in an axiomatic manner, called hedge algebras (HAs,) is still a novel event and essential for developing computational methods to simulate the human capabilities in problem-solving based on the so-called natural language-based formalism. Hedge algebras were founded in 1990. Since then, HA-formalism has been significantly developed and applied to solve several application problems in many distinct fields, such as fuzzy control, data classification and regression, robotics, L-time series forecasting, and L-data summarization. The study gives a survey to summarize specific distinguishing fundamental features of HA-formalism, its applicability in problem-solving, and its performance. |
