Features: This book systematically introduces the fundamental principles and basic methods of fuzzy set theory and its applications. The book is divided into fourteen chapters, covering the three basic concepts of fuzzy set theory—fuzzy sets, fuzzy relations, and fuzzy membership functions; the three fundamental principles of fuzzy set theory—decomposition theorem, representation theorem, and extension principle; the three basic applications of fuzzy set theory—fuzzy clustering analysis, fuzzy pattern recognition, and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation; and the three hot topics of fuzzy set theory—fuzzy decision theory, fuzzy logic systems, and fuzzy measure theory. Important concepts in the book are accompanied by English translations for easy retrieval of relevant English literature. Each chapter includes a summary section for tracking the latest research findings. At the end of the book, there is a symbol glossary and a name index for the convenience of readers. This book can serve as a reference for engineering technicians and educators engaged in the research of fuzzy set theory and its applications, as well as a textbook or teaching reference for senior undergraduate and graduate students in colleges and universities.
