Abstract

In this paper, as an application of fuzzy matroids, the fuzzifying greedy algorithm is proposed and an achievable
example is given. Basis axioms and circuit axioms of fuzzifying matroids, which are the semantic extension for the
basis axioms and circuit axioms of crisp matroids respectively, are presented. It is proved that a fuzzifying matroid
is equivalent to a mapping which satisfies the basis axioms or circuit axioms.
