Enric Trillas: A Passion for Fuzzy Sets: A Collection of Recent Works on Fuzzy Logic (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing Book 322)

(Preliminary) The book is a comprehensive collection of the most recent and significant research and applications in the field of fuzzy logic. It covers fuzzy structures, systems, rules, operations as well as important applications, e.g in decision making, environmental prediction and prevention, and communication. It is dedicated to Enric Trillas as an acknowledgement for his pioneering research in the field. The book include a foreword by Lotfi A. Zadeh.
