In the 1960s, Zadeh designed special "fuzzy" techniques for such use. In the 1980s, fuzzy techniques started controlling trains, elevators, video cameras, rice cookers, car transmissions, etc. Now, combining fuzzy with neural, genetic, and other intelligent methods leads to new state-of-the-art results: in aerospace industry (from drones to space flights), in mobile robotics, in finances (predicting the value of crypto-currencies), and even in law enforcement (detecting counterfeit banknotes, detecting online child predators and in creating explainable AI systems). The book describes these (and other) applicationsas well as foundations and logistics of fuzzy techniques. This book can be recommended to specialistsboth in fuzzy and in various application areaswho will learn latest techniques and their applications, and to students interested in innovative ideas}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-81561-5}, recid = {1443160}, pages = {1 online resource :}, }
