New Trends in Fuzzy Set Theory and Related Items.

This introduction to fuzzy set theory and its multitude of applications seeks to balance the character of the book with the dynamic nature of the research. This edition includes new 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. Existing material has been updated, and extended exercises are included.

This book covers the introduction, theory, development and applications of type-2 fuzzy logic systems, which represent the current state-of-the-art in various domains such as control applications, power plants, health care, image processing, mathematical applications etc. The book is also rich in discussing different applications in order to give the researchers a flavor of how type-2 fuzzy logic is designed for different types of problems. Type-2 fuzzy logic systems are now used extensively in engineering applications for many purposes. In simple language, this book covers the practical use of type-2 fuzzy logic and its optimization through different training methods. Furthermore, this book maintains the relationship between mathematics and practical implementations in the real world. This book chapter also contains the proper comparisons with available literature work. It shows that the presented enhanced techniques have better results. This book would serve as a handy reference guide for a variety of readers, primarily targeting research scholars, undergraduate and postgraduate researchers and practicing engineers working in Type-2 fuzzy logic systems and their applications.

Fuzzy Set Theory and Advanced Mathematical Applications contains contributions by many of the leading experts in the field, including coverage of the mathematical foundations of the theory, decision making and systems science, and recent developments in fuzzy neural control. The book supplies a readable, practical toolkit with a clear introduction to fuzzy set theory and its evolution in mathematics and new results on foundations of fuzzy set theory, decision making and systems science, and fuzzy control and neural systems. Each chapter is self-contained, providing up-to-date coverage of its subject. Audience: An important reference work for university students, and researchers and engineers working in both industrial and academic settings.

This book presents part of the proceedings of the Manufacturing and Materials track of the iM3F 2020 conference held in Malaysia. This collection of articles deliberates on the key challenges and trends related to manufacturing as well as materials engineering and technology in setting the stage for the world in embracing the fourth industrial revolution. It presents recent findings with regards to manufacturing and materials that are pertinent towards the realizations and ultimately the embodiment of Industry 4.0, with contributions from both industry and academia.
