About this title

Synopsis

Ever since fuzzy logic was introduced by Lotfi Zadeh in the mid-sixties and genetic algorithms by John Holland in the early seventies, these two fields widely been subjects of academic research the world over. During the last few years, they have been experiencing extremely rapid growth in the industrial world, where they have been shown to be very effective in solving real-world problems. These two substantial fields, together with neurocomputing techniques, are recognized as major parts of soft computing: a set of computing technologies already riding the waves of the next century to produce the human-centered intelligent systems of tomorrow; the collection of papers presented in this book shows the way. The book also contains an extensive bibliography on fuzzy logic and genetic algorithms.

Synopsis

Since fuzzy logic was introduced by Lotfi Zadeh in the mid-1960s, and genetic algorithms by John Holland in the early 1970s, these two fields have widely been the subjects of academic research. These two fields, with neurocomputing techniques, are recognized as a major part of soft computing. This collection aims to show how this group of computing techniques might produce human-centred intelligent systems in the future.
