Klappentext In recent years fuzzy logic has gained widespread acceptance in many areas of science and technology as a powerful approach to the treatment of uncertainty in complex systems. This book, which begins with a foreword by the founder of fuzzy logic, Professor Lotfi A. Zadeh of the University of California at Berkeley, is the first to explore the role fuzzy logic in chemistry. Nine distinguished authors not only provide the necessary theoretical background but also describe the practical aspects of fuzzy theory in all of the significant areas of chemical application. "...the book provides a useful introduction to potential chemical applications,..." --Gerald Maggiora, Pharmacia & Upjohn, CHEMISTRY & INDUSTRY. "...the book is a good summary of current applications of fuzzy logic in chemistry. It provides a thought-provoking examination of the way chemists think about struture. In addition, the application oriented chapters illustrate the utility of fuzzy logic for understanding spectra and structures." --Matthew Clark, Institute for Scientific Information, JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL INFORMATION AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Zusammenfassung Addresses practical applications of fuzzy logic to chemical systems. This book discusses the role of fuzzy logic in the characterization of a variety of chemical concepts! including chirality! quantum systems! molecular engineering and design! and hierarchical classification methods.
