- If sci.engr.fuzzy excludes classical information theory side of fuzzy
- logic, then sci.math.fuzzy excludes the applied control side of fuzzy
- control.
-
- I definitely *don't* like sci.math.fuzzy. As you pointed out fuzzy
- logic/control encompasses many areas: math, information sciences,
- control, engineering, computer applications, and possibly even
- artificial intelligence.
-
- With all this said, I now am beginning to favor sci.fuzzy. I still like
- sci.logic.fuzzy better thatn sci.math.fuzzy.
