Summary

As of today, Evolutionary Computing and Fuzzy Set Computing are two mature, wen -developed, and higbly advanced technologies of information processing. Once quantified via fuzzy sets or fuzzy relations, the domain knowledge could be used efficiently very often reducing a heavy computation burden when analyzing and optimizing complex systems.

Fuzzy Evolutionary Computation by Witold Pedrycz

The main theme of this text is to highlight a synergistic effect that is emerging between fuzzy sets and evolutionary computation. This quantifies the main advantage arising from the symbiosis. The scope of the book is broad, ranging from coverage of fundamental ideas in fuzzy sets and evolutionary computation, through inclusion of cutting-edge research, to case studies. The focus is on the applied side of fuzzy evolutionary calculations. Each contribution is systematic and thorough in its presentations, and emphasizes design of evolutionary schemes that embraces various sources of domain knowledge. The authors have also included problem sets at the end of each chapter which explore specific conceptual and algorithmic points covered in the text.

Witold Pedrycz, Ph.D., is Professor and Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Computational Intelligence in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.
