A fuzzy query engine for suggesting the products based on conformance and asymmetric conjunction

作者：

Highlights：

• A fuzzy query engine for suggesting less-frequently purchased products is proposed.

• User's preferences are provided as crisp or imprecise data.

• Conformance and several aggregation functions for managing preferences are explored.

• This approach is illustrated on the second-hand cars data set.
