[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-6487) I've been working with Derby to make it possible to assist fuzzy based queries. Analysing imprecise data hidden inside crisp data is famous among researchers.Intention of opening a JIRA issue is submitting Paper for Apache community to review.

Madushanka Fonseka commented on DERBY-6487:
-------------------------------------------

These are the example queries I intend to incorporate,

Select * from employee where salary is HIGH 
Select * from employee where salary is VERY LOW
Select * from employee where age is OLD
Select * from employee where salary is LOW and age is not OLD

>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Miscellaneous, SQL

> I have selected fuzzy logy as my model of computing and Derby as my database. So "Select * from employee where salary is high " can be executed. I'll provide more insights in future.
>  INTRODUCTION : Relational database systems manage only crisp data.Relational models lack flexibility in defining and handling vague data. Due to the limitations in Relational models & SQL intelligent querying  cannot be made against relational databases.This research is an effort to enhance & extend relational model to assist fuzzy query in relational models. Fuzzy queries are linguistic expressions and based on SQL.
> MOTIVATION                         
> Relational databases are pervasive in modern day computing.
> Corperate relational databases contain large amount of data which can be used to provide intelligent solutions.
> Relational database systems can be extended for data mining and machine learning operations. 
> Why Fuzzy Set Theory ? 
>   • In order to study the contextual semantics of vague data Fuzzy Set Theory provides an ideal framework.
>   • Both Fuzzy Set Theory and Relational Database Theory based on “Sets”. • Hence,  joining them together makes a strong framework to study imprecise data. 
>   • Linguistic expressions closed to natural language could be defined using fuzzy logy.
