Abstract. The paper deals with the higher degree fuzzy transforms (F-transforms with polynomial components) for functions of two variables in the case when two-dimensional generalized fuzzy partition is given by B-splines of two variables. We investigate properties of the direct and inverse F-transform in this case and prove that using B-splines as basic functions of fuzzy partition allows us to improve the quality of approximation.

Introduction

The concept of fuzzy transform (F -transform or F 0 -transform) was introduced in 2001 [11] (see also the key paper [9]) and generalized to the case of higher degree (F m -transform, m ≥ 1) in 2011 [12] by I. Perfilieva with co-authors. Initially, the technique of F -transform was described for functions of one variable. The extension for the two-dimensional case (i.e. for functions of two variables) has been introduced in [17] and developed in [7,8]. There is a number of papers dealing with fuzzy transforms with respect to a fuzzy partition with specially designed basic functions including fuzzy partitions based on splines (see, e.g., [1,5]). In both mentioned cases the ordinary F -transforms (i.e. with the classical components-numbers) for functions of one variable have been considered. The construction of higher degree fuzzy transforms with respect to a fuzzy partition given by central, odd degree B-splines of one variable was presented by the authors at the previous FUZZ-IEEE conference (IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems) in Istanbul in 2015 (see [6]). At the current stage our main focus area refers to the case of two variables. Let us note that in last years exactly two-dimensional F-transforms have been widely applied in image processing for solving problems of image compression, reconstruction, denoising, fusion, edge detection (see, e.g., [2,3,13,14]).

for the case of several variables has been caused by the rapid development of such applications. Our research focuses on the F m -transform with respect to a generalized uniform fuzzy partition given by B-splines of two variables of degree 2k1 − 1 and 2k2 − 1 respectively. We generalize for the two-dimensional case the main result of [6] and obtain that in this case the inverse F m -transform is precise for polynomials of two variables of degree r1 ≤ 2k1 − 1 and r2 ≤ 2k2 − 1 when r1 + r2 ≤ 2m + 1. On the basis of this result we obtain error estimations for approximation b
