Abstract: To prove that a fuzzy dependency follows from a set of fuzzy dependences can be a very demanding task. As far as we know, an algorithm or an application that generally and automatically solves the problem, does not exist. The main goal of this paper is to offer such an algorithm. In order to achieve our goal we consider fuzzy dependences as fuzzy formulas. In particular, we fix fuzzy logic operators: conjunction, disjunction and implication, and allow only these operators to appear within fuzzy formulas. Ultimately, we prove that a fuzzy dependency follows from a set of fuzzy dependences if and only if the corresponding fuzzy formula is a logical consequence of the corresponding set of fuzzy formulas. To prove an implication of the last type, one usually uses the resolution principle, i.e., the steps that can be fully automated. Our methodology assumes the use of soundness and completeness of fuzzy dependences inference rules as well as the extensive use of active fuzzy multivalued dependences fulfillment.
