Fuzzy Logic and Lotfi Zadeh

LOTFI ZADEH
Fuzzy logic – Fuzzy logic is an extension of Boolean logic by Lotfi Zadeh in 1965 based on the mathematical theory of fuzzy sets, which is a generalization of the classical set theory.By introducing the notion of degree in the verification of a condition, thus enabling a condition to be in a state other than true or false, fuzzy logic provides a very valuable flexibility for reasoning, which makes it possible to take into account inaccuracies and uncertainties.

Lotfi Zadeh
==========
Lotfi Aliasker Zadeh is a mathematician, computer scientist, electrical engineer, artificial intelligence researcher and professor emeritus of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. Lotfi Aliasker Zadeh born on February 4, 1921.He is best known for proposing the fuzzy mathematics consisting of those fuzzy related concepts: fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic, fuzzy algorithms, fuzzy semantics, fuzzy languages,fuzzy control, fuzzy systems, fuzzy probabilities,fuzzy events and fuzzy information.He is a founding member of Eurasian Academy.
According to Google Scholar, as of September 2015 Zadeh’s work had been cited 150,852 times with the 1965 “Fuzzy Sets” paper receiving 58,251.

Zadeh, in his theory of fuzzy sets, proposed using a membership function (with a range covering the interval [0,1]) operating on the domain of all possible values. He proposed new operations for the calculus of logic and showed that fuzzy logic was a generalisation of classical and Boolean logic. He also proposed fuzzy numbers as a special case of fuzzy sets, as well as the corresponding rules for consistent mathematical operations (fuzzy arithmetic).

Lotfi Zadeh is also credited, along with John R. Ragazzini, in 1952, with having pioneered the development of the z-transform method in discrete time signal processing and analysis. These methods are now standard in digital signal processing, digital control, and other discrete-time systems used in industry and research. He is an editor of
International Journal of Computational Cognition.
