1975 · Best.-Nr. 2682 — Applications à la linguistique à la logique et à la sémantique Arnold Kaufmann & Lotfi A. Zadeh Paris: Masson 1975 Softcover Description This volume presents one of the earliest systematic explorations of fuzzy set theory applied beyond engineering extending into linguistics logic and semantic modeling. Co‑authored by Arnold Kaufmann and Lotfi A. Zadeh—the founder of fuzzy set theory—the book captures a pivotal moment when fuzzy logic was beginning to influence the study of natural language reasoning and meaning. The authors develop: foundational concepts of fuzzy sets and graded membership linguistic variables and their role in modeling imprecise or qualitative information applications to logic including approximate reasoning and non‑binary truth structures semantic interpretation using fuzzy relations and graded categories early frameworks for bridging human language and computational representation This work is historically significant for its contribution to the expansion of fuzzy theory into the humanities and cognitive sciences. Its presence in the Hassan Aït‑Kaci research library is especially fitting given his interest in semantics logic and the formal representation of meaning. Masson paperback
