Today, noise is considered the curse of the information age, but Kosko claims that not all noise is bad. Debunking this and many other commonly held beliefs about noise, the author gives readers a vivid sense of how deeply noise permeates both the world around us and within us.
The leading proponent of fuzzy logic--the most explosive new concept in science since chaos theory--shows how it will shape every aspect of life in the digital age, from politics and genetics to warfare, technology, and mortality.
A washing machine that gauges each load to determine how much soap to use? An air conditioner that constantly adjusts cooling strength based on room temperature? These "smart" products are possible with the advent of "fuzzy logic", the principle that's revolutionizing science. Now, its chief proponent presents a brilliant, popular account of the ...
Combining neural networks and fuzzy systems, this presents neural networks as trainable dynamical systems and develops mechanisms and principles of adaption, self-organization, covergence and global stability. It also includes the new geometric theory of fuzzy sets, systems and associative memories. Kosko shows how to apply fuzzy theory to ...
In the near future, a scientist named John Grant has invented a way to turn water into inexpensive and versatile fuel. Naturally, the oil-producing countries of the world want to destroy Grant's invention, even if it means destroying Grant.
"IEEE Press is proud to present the first selected reprint volume devoted to the new field of intelligent signal processing (ISP). ISP differs fundamentally from the classical approach to statistical signal processing in that the input-output behavior of a complex system is modeled by using "intelligent" or "model-free" techniques, rather than ...
This text recasts and extends fuzzy systems in the language of function approximation. It applies these "smart" systems to a wide range of novel applications in engineering and knowledge processing. Each chapter contains a nontechnical overview and applications cover fields of controls, signal processing, communications, pattern recognition, ...
"The Fuzzy Future" will do for "fuzzy logic" what "Chaos" did for the innovative scientific perspective. This is the book to read today in order to comprehend tomorrow's scientific headlines. 9 illustrations.
Fuzzy logic is the next wave in technology. Japanese electronics giants have, in the last ten years, already staked their commercial future on the benefits of fuzzy production; only recently have European and US companies begun to catch up. Fuzzy logic sanctifies vagueness. It prescribes a new way of thinking about machines, about science, ...

This collection of essays explores neural networks applications in signal and image processing, function and estimation, robotics and control, associative memories, and electrical and optical networks. Intended as a companion to "Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems", this reference is designed to be of use to scientists, engineers and other working ...
El exito obtenido por la Historia del tiempo, de Stephen Hawking, propicio la creacion, en 1991, de esta coleccion de divulgacion cientifica que fue dirigida durante largo tiempo por dos personas de formacion humanistica: de ahi ciertas contaminaciones al inicio de la coleccion. Sin embargo, cuando Jose Manuel Sanchez Ron se hizo cargo de ella, ...
This work combines neural networks and fuzzy systems, presenting neural networks as trainable dynamical systems and developing mechanisms and principles of adaption, self-organization, convergence and global stability. It includes the new geometric theory of fuzzy sets, systems and associated memories, and shows how to apply fuzzy set theory to ...
