An Introduction to Fuzzy Control

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fuzzy controllers are a class of knowledge based controllers using artificial intelligence techniques with origins in fuzzy logic. They can be found either as stand-alone control elements or as integral parts of a wide range of industrial process controlsystems and consumer products. Applications of fuzzy controllers are an established practice for Japanese manufacturers, and are spreading in Europe and America. The main aim of this book is to show that fuzzy control is not totally ad hoc, that there exist formal techniques for the analysis of a fuzzy controller, and that fuzzy control can be implemented even when no expert knowledge is available. The book is mainly oriented to control engineers and theorists, although parts can be read without any knowledge of control theory and may interest AI people. This 2nd, revised edition incorporates suggestions from numerous reviewers and updates and reorganizes some of the material. [detailed...]

An Introduction to Fuzzy Logic Applications

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fuzzy logic provides a unique method of approximate reasoning in an imperfect world. This text is a bridge to the principles of fuzzy logic through an application-focused approach to selected topics in Engineering and Management. The many examples point to the richer solutions obtained through fuzzy logic and to the possibilities of much wider applications. There are relatively few texts available at present in fuzzy logic applications. The style and content of this text is complementary to those already available. New areas of application are presented in a graded approach in which the underlying concepts are first described. The text is broadly divided into two parts which treat Processes and Materials and also System Applications. The level enables a selection of the text to be made for the substance of a senior undergraduate level course. There is also sufficient volume and quality for the basis of a postgraduate course. A more restricted and judicious selection can provide the… [detailed...]

An Introduction to Fuzzy Sets: Analysis and Design (Complex Adaptive Systems)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: `The Pedrycz and Gomide text is superb in all respects. Its exposition of fuzzy-neural networks and fuzzy-genetic systems adds much to its value as a textbook` -- Lotfi A. Zadeh, University of California, Berkeley. The concept of fuzzy sets is one ofthe most fundamental and influential tools in computational intelligence. Fuzzy sets can provide solutions to a broad range of problems of control, pattern classification, reasoning, planning, and computer vision. This book bridges the gap that has developed between theory and practice. The authors explain what fuzzy sets are, why they work, when they should be used (and when they shouldn`t), and how to design systems using them. The authors take an unusual top-down approach to the design of detailedalgorithms. They begin with illustrative examples, explain the fundamental theory and design methodologies, and then present more advanced case studies dealing with practical tasks. While they use mathematics to introduce concepts, they… [detailed...]

Description: The need for better understanding of the role location plays in economic life was first and most famously made explicit by Bertil Ohlin in 1933. However it is only recently, with the development of computer packages able to handle complex systems, as well as advances in economic theory, that Ohlin`s vision has been met and a framework developed which explains the distribution of economic activity across space.

An Introduction to Greek Epigraphy of the Hellenistic and Roman Periods from Alexan

2002 y.
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
Description: Greek inscriptions form a valuable resource for the study of every aspect of life and death in the Greco-Roman world. They are primary witnesses to society`s laws and institutions, social structures, public cults and private associations, and, of course, language. `An Introduction to Greek Epigraphy` provides students and classicists with the tools to take advantage of the social and historical weight of these treasures. The book begins by examining letter forms, ancient names, and ancient calendars, knowledge of which is essential in reading inscriptions of all kinds. B.H.McLean discusses the classification of inscriptions into their various categories and analyzes particular types of inscriptions, including decrees, honorary inscriptions, dedications, funerary inscriptions, and manumission inscriptions. Finally, McLean includes special topics that bear upon the interpretation of specific features of inscriptions, such as Greek and Roman administrative titles and functions. … [detailed...]

Aware of this relationship in his comprehensive analysis of international institutional law, Jan Klabbers re-appraises the status of international organizations in this text for advanced law and international relations students.

An Introduction to Judaic Thought and Rabbinic Literature

2007 y.
Publisher: Praeger Publishers
Description: Many people have heard the term `Talmud` but have little or no idea what it is, what it contains, and why it was written, moreover, few have ever actually looked into one of its works, and even fewer would make any sense of it if they did. Here, Sicker provides readers with insight into the nature and history of Judaic thought and its literature through illustrative examples and clear explanations. Rabbinic literature is important, even to those who are not religiously inclined, because it alone represents the embodiment of the intellectual legacy that has contributed enormously to the survival and continuity of the Jewish people. Through two thousand years of dispersion, rabbinic literature was the primary link to the past and provided hope for the future. It was, in effect, the intellectual homeland of a people scattered throughout the world. Even if one has never read any Judaic literature, he or she will have some notion of what it is after reading this book. This book is written… [detailed...]

An Introduction to Late Modern English (Edinburgh Textbooks on the English Language)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For decades it has been commonly believed that the English language has remained fairly static since the beginning of the eighteenth century, but recent research shows that this is far from true. An Introduction to Late Modern English focuses on the tail end of the standardization process (codification and prescription), during which such important social changes as the Industrial Revolution shaped the language. Late Modern English currently generates a lot of scholarly attention, mainly due to new developments in sociohistorical linguistics and corpus linguistics. By drawing on this research, Ingrid Tieken-Boon van Ostade offers a fuller account of the language than previously possible. Her volume is designed for students and beginning scholars and is grounded in recent research in which sociolinguistic models are applied to earlier stages of the language (1700-1900). It focuses on people as speakers and writers of English, and it provides research questions aimed at acquiring… [detailed...]

The development of the management science technique or model includes applying it to the problem to generate a solution or recommendation. We have found that this approach helps to motivate the student by demonstrating not only how the procedure works, but also how it can contribute to the decision-making process.
