International Series in Intelligent Technologies , Volume 4

Fuzzy Set Theory and Advanced Mathematical Applications contains
contributions by many of the leading experts in the field, including
coverage of the mathematical foundations of the theory, decision making and
systems science, and recent developments in fuzzy neural control. The book
supplies a readable, practical toolkit with a clear introduction to fuzzy
set theory and its evolution in mathematics and new results on foundations
of fuzzy set theory, decision making and systems science, and fuzzy control
and neural systems. Each chapter is self-contained, providing up-to-date
coverage of its subject. This is an important reference work for university
students, and researchers and engineers working in both industrial and
academic settings.
