Synopsis

This is volume 1 of the two-volume set Soft Computing and Its Applications. This volume explains the primary tools of soft computing as well as provides an abundance of working examples and detailed design studies. The book starts with coverage of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic and their various approaches to fuzzy reasoning. Precisely speaking, this book provides a platform for handling different kinds of uncertainties of real-life problems. It introduces the reader to the topic of rough sets. This book’s companion volume, Volume 2: Fuzzy Reasoning and Fuzzy Control, will move forward from here to discuss several advanced features of soft computing and application methodologies.

This new book:

• Discusses the present state of art of soft computing

•Includes the existing application areas of soft computing

• Presents original research contributions

• Discusses the future scope of work in soft computing

The book is unique in that it bridges the gap between theory and practice, and it presents several experimental results on synthetic data and real-life data. The book provides a unified platform for applied scientists and engineers in different fields and industries for the application of soft computing tools in many diverse domains of engineering.
