Fuzzy Logic is a computational paradigm capable of modelling the own uncertainness of human beings. Fuzzy reasoning is nothing else than a Fuzzy Logic-based formalism for encoding human knowledge or common sense in a numerical framework. Indeed, the mathematical concepts on which Fuzzy Logic is supported are very easy to understand. In a Fuzzy Controller, human experience is codified by means of linguistic if-then rules, which compute control actions upon given conditions. Fuzzy Logic has been applied to problems that are difficult to solve mathematically. One of its main advantages lies...

Fuzzy logic is a computational paradigm capable of modelling the own uncertainness of human beings. This wide-ranging book focuses in-depth on the VLSI CMOS implementation and application of programmable analogue Fuzzy Logic Controllers following a mixed-signal philosophy.
