《模糊集合论及其应用(第4版)(英文)》主要内容简介：Since its inception 20 years ago, the theory of fuzzy sets has advanced in a variety of ways and in many disciplines. Applications of this theory can be found, for example, in artificial intelligence, computer science, control engineering, deci-sion theory, expert systems, logic, management science, operations research,pattern recognition, and robotics. Theoretical advances have been made in many directions. In fact it is extremely difficult for a newcomer to the field or for some-body who wants to apply fuzzy set theory to his problems to recognize properly the present "state of the art." Therefore, many applications use fuzzy set theory on a much more elementary level than appropriate and necessary. On the other hand, theoretical publications are already so specialized and assume such a back-ground in fuzzy set theory that they are hard to understand. The more than 4,000 publications that exist in the field are widely scattered over many areas and in many journals. Existing books are edited volumes containing specialized contri-butions or monographs that focus only on specific areas of fuzzy sets, such as pattern recognition [Bezdek 1981], switching functions [Kandel and Lee 1979],or decision making [Kickert 1978]. Even the excellent survey book by Dubois and Prade [1980a] is primarly intended as a research compendium for insiders rather than an introduction to fuzzy set theory or a textbook. This lack of a com-prehensive and modern text is particularly recognized by newcomers to the field and bv those who want to teach fuzzy set theory and its applications.
