Abstract

In the real world, many reversal phenomena occur, such as cases where a statement once regarded as false is later recognized as true. Upside-Down Logic is a framework designed to formalize such reversal phenomena within a logical system. It inverts the truth and falsity of propositions through contextual transformations, thereby capturing ambiguity and reversals in reasoning processes. A Plithogenic Set models elements by means of attribute-based membership and contradiction functions, extending the classical frameworks of fuzzy, intuitionistic, and neutrosophic sets. The essential difference between Plithogenic Sets and traditional Fuzzy Sets lies in their ability to incorporate contradiction parameters, which naturally arise when uncertainty is transformed into certainty. While most studies assume that only a single contradiction parameter exists, this paper investigates how to handle situations where two or more contradiction values are present, in conjunction with the principles of Upside-Down Logic. Furthermore, we also examine methods for eliminating contradictions altogether.
