Fuzzy Set Theory—and Its ApplicationsSince its inception, the theory of fuzzy sets has advanced in a variety of ways and in many disciplines. Applications of fuzzy technology can be found in artificial intelligence, computer science, control engineering, decision theory, expert systems, logic, management science, operations research, robotics, and others. Theoretical advances have been made in many directions. The primary goal of Fuzzy Set Theory - and its Applications, Fourth Edition is to provide a textbook for courses in fuzzy set theory, and a book that can be used as an introduction. To balance the character of a textbook with the dynamic nature of this research, many useful references have been added to develop a deeper understanding for the interested reader. Fuzzy Set Theory - and its Applications, Fourth Edition updates the research agenda with chapters on possibility theory, fuzzy logic and approximate reasoning, expert systems, fuzzy control, fuzzy data analysis, decision making and fuzzy set models in operations research. Chapters have been updated and extended exercises are included. |

Certainty eventually indicates that we assume the structures and parameters of the model to be definitely known, and that there are no doubts about their values or their occurrence. If the model under consideration is a formal model ...

One of the reasons for this might be, that expert systems in their inference engines, when they are based on dual logic, perform symbol processing (truth values true or false) rather than knowledge processing.

It has already been mentioned that the membership function is not limited to values between 0 and 1. If suppla(x) = 1, the fuzzy set A is called normal. A nonempty fuzzy set A can always be normalized by dividing pi(x) by suppli(x).
