Fuzzy Approach to Reasoning and Decision-Making : Selected Papers of the International Symposium Held at Bechyne from June 25-29, 1990

The papers in this text discuss the theoretical background of fuzzy logic and the applications of fuzzy reasoning to the problems of artificial intelligence, robotics and expert systems. Some papers explore fuzzy approaches to modelling of decision-making situations under uncertainty.
