Fuzzy Set Theory — and Its Applications

• to Fuzzy Sets.- to Fuzzy Sets.- Fuzzy Mathematics.- Fuzzy Sets—Basic Definitions.- Extensions.- Fuzzy Measures and Measures of Fuzziness.- The Extension Principle and Applications.- Fuzzy Relations and Fuzzy Graphs.- Fuzzy Analysis.- Possibility Theory vs. Probability Theory.- Applications of Fuzzy Set Theory.- Fuzzy Logic and Approximate Reasoning.- Expert Systems and Fuzzy Control.- Pattern Recognition.- Decision Making in Fuzzy Environment.- Fuzzy Set Models in Operations Research.- Empirical Research in Fuzzy Set Theory.- Future Perspectives.

The extensive bibliography as well as the excellent chapters on applications are of wide interest. Those teaching courses in fuzzy set theory, especially in a more practical rather than abstract context, would do well to consider this textbook. Information that is useful, clearly presented, and with the latest revisions, reflects much current research.Int. J. General Systems, Vol 21
