Fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic, applications

Notas: Incluye referencias bibliográficas e índiceSumario: Fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic are powerful mathematical tools for modeling and controling uncertain systems in industry, humanity and nature; they are facilators for approximate reasoning in decision making in the absence of complete and precise information. The role is significant when they are applied to complex phenomena not easily described by traditonal mathematics.
This book has a unique feature that is twofold: 1. It is the first introductory course (with examples and exercises) to systematically bring fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic into the university and college system. 2. It is designed to serve as a text for introducing engineers and scientis from various fields to the theory of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic, thus enabling them to initiate projects and make applications.
