Description:
Fuzzy grey cognitive maps (FGCMs) are extensions of fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs), applying uncertain weights between the concepts. This uncertainty is expressed by so-called grey numbers. Similarly to FCMs, the inference is determined by an iteration process, which may converge to an equilibrium point, but limit cycles or chaotic behaviour may also turn up. In this paper, based on the grey weighted connections between the concepts and the parameter of the sigmoid threshold function, we give sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for sigmoid FGCMs.
