Summary

This volume includes most of the recent results obtained by Italian researchers in fuzzy logic. It collects selected papers from the 1997 Italian Workshop on Fuzzy Logic -- WILF '97. It covers the mathematical foundations of fuzzy logic, neuro-fuzzy systems, hardware implementation of fuzzy logic controllers, and gives an update on applications to control, physics, decision support systems and pattern analysis.
