Misleading Title
Review written by: Greg Roberts From San Diego CA, USA
"A First Look at Fuzzy Logic and Neural Networks..." might be a lot more accurate. It does a good job of covering the concepts. What it doesn't do is address any of the issues of implementing a fuzzy system in an embedded environment. If you don't know what a fuzzy set is then you should consider this book. If you want some tips or ideas for creating an inference engine for an 8 or 16 bit processor I suggest you look elsewhere.
Fuzzy Logic for Embedded Systems Applications
Review written by: Anastasios Kessaris From Canada
The book is written in a language that makes it accessible to beginners in the field of fuzzy logic as well as experts, since it contains top notch research on the state of the art of the topic.
Embedded system design using fuzzy logic algorithms is made easy through practical examples.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book. If you want a concise, well written book that is not overbearing and is actually very user friendly and you are interested in fuzzy logic application algorithms this is your book.
Too much padding, too many typos
Review written by: Cdh Manning From NZ
While this book does provide a reasonable overview, I found it rather disappointing.
It has too many errors. With highly technical material, it is imperative that the information is correct or else you can't trust it. For example a minus instead of a plus does not help when explaining terminology.
Only half the book is really about fuzzy logic. There is far too much padding eg. 1.large diagrams showing Moore's Law and the layers in an IC gate. These are not subjects that should be covered in a book on fuzzy logic and one is forced to conclude that the author had a page quota to be reached and did it by adding these secions and large verbose reference sections.
A worked example or an appendix showing an algorithm in C would have been far more useful.
Embedded Applications with "Fuzzy Logic"
Review written by: Professor Rashdee From Mississauga, ON. Canada
For someone looking for fuzzy modeling and control into embedded systems this book is excellent. The author provides a firm fuzzy concepts necessary to design intelligent systems and gives the reader a solid background for further studies and real world applications. Embedded systems design case studies overview is something that all embedded system developers should understand but many don't take the time. It is thorough, without being arcane or pedantic.
In summary the book contains the right material, it is presented in an easy to absorb manor and is practically oriented. I highly recommended it to embedded engineering students, or engineers and managers facing the challenges of fuzzy logic based project. I'll consider five stars for this book.
Good but many errors
Review written by: Montri Tangjarukij From Samutprakarn Thailand
Good introduction about fuzzy logic plus a ton of web resources. I gave it 3 stars because so many wording errors in this book.
