Summary

Fuzzy Information Engineering is the first book devoted exclusively to applications of fuzzy logic in information sciences at large. Written by an international team of experts, it takes you on a guided tour through the most important fuzzy set theory applications of the past several years. Each chapter covers a different application of fuzzy logic, and addresses set theory, methodology, and implementation.
