摘要

The first officially published paper on fuzzy set theory appeared in 1965. Since then, an enormous amount of literature spread out from this seminal paper of Lotfi Zadeh, as witnessed by the foundation of the journal Fuzzy Sets and Systems in 1978, and the growth in size of this journal from a small format set of rather thin four yearly issues, to the present 24 issues a year having between 150 and 200 pages each. The launching, in the 90s, of specific IEEE transactions specifically devoted to fuzzy systems, is also a major sign of the maturity of a novel area devoted to the representation and the processing of concepts that are intrinsically gradual. Since then most major publishers do propose a journal devoted to fuzzy sets and related notions. As a consequence it was felt important to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the paper "Fuzzy Sets", to ask members of the board to write position papers discussing the role and future prospects of fuzzy sets in their area. Finally we could gather 14 contributions of various length, which is a small number compared to the actual list of topics where fuzzy set research is active. But it is also representative of the most recent trends. Trillas and Guadarrama pose an interesting question when considering the evolution of the field in the last 40 years. Indeed, Zadeh had very early the conviction that fuzzy sets should play a basic role in formal, computable representations of human knowledge expressed in natural language. This thesis is still alive, under the Computing with Words paradigm. However, retrospectively, the impact of fuzzy sets on formal linguistics has been very small, compared to the impact on engineering, and some specialized mathematical areas. Trillas and Guadarrama suggest some ways of reviving the potential of fuzzy sets in computational linguistics. In connection to this issue, Novak tries to isolate the phenomenon of vaguenes as being the focus of fuzzy set-based modelling, as opposed to uncertainty. He claims that fuzziness stems from indiscernibility, via the notion of fuzzy equality. And indeed, the nature of fuzziness is still a matter of controversy, namely the question of whether the membership function and fuzzy equality are independent notions or not. Resolving this issue is crucial for a proper understanding of the significance of fuzzy sets in knowledge representation and reasoning.
