Books in the Advances In Fuzzy Systems-applications And Theory series

This volume contains selected papers written by the founder of fuzzy set theory, Lotfi A. Zadeh. As both founder of, and contributor to, this field, his work contains many of the major ideas in fuzzy set theory, fuzzy logic and fuzzy systems in their historical context.

Fuzzy set theory provides us with a framework which is wider than that of classical set theory. This monograph systematically reflects the up-to-date state of fuzzy topology. It emphasizes the so-called "pointed approach" and the effects of stratification structure appearing in fuzzy sets.

Discusses various nonadditive set functions that describe the interaction among the contributions from feature attributes towards a considered target attribute. This book then investigates relevant nonlinear integrals. It is suitable as a text for graduate courses in mathematics, computer science, and information science.
