Abstract:
In this research, we present a mechanism of fuzzy number query processing for document retrieval based on extended fuzzy number concept networks to deal with linguistic queries represented generalized fuzzy numbers. The presented mechanism of fuzzy number query processing for document retrieval based on extended fuzzy number concept networks is more flexible and more useful to deal with generalized fuzzy numbers queries.
