About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"The present book is a monograph devoted to exploring the fuzzy approach to modeling the similarity phenomenon. … I think the attempt to provide a link between the earlier approaches to modeling of similarity … and the current approaches being developed in the framework of fuzzy set theory is a very fortunate one. … the book collects important material which was needed. I believe it will become a useful source for researchers and practitioners involved in fuzzy modeling and modeling of similarity." (Radim Belohlavek, International Journal of General Systems; Methodology, Applications, Education, Vol. 32 (6), 2003)
"This book presents various types of techniques for compatibility assessment in applications of fuzzy set theory and approximate reasoning. … The book will be useful for researchers in the fields of pattern recognition, classification and intelligent systems." (Robert Fullér, Mathematical Reviews, 2003 b)
"This book provides a pioneering review of compatibility measures in fuzzy set theory and related areas. As a result, this book is likely to be valuable for all researchers working in this area. ... By any criterion, this book can be regarded as being successful in providing a comprehensive understanding of compatibility measures that will be worthwhile for any researcher." (Christian Setzkorn, Expert Update, Vol. 5 (3), 2002)
