Patents
- United States
Patent Office
- The specification of a United States patent features such useful information as the title, full name(s) of inventor(s), place(s) of residence, assignee, date filed, references cited (including other patents that have cited the patent), abstract and a drawing.
- A simple Boolean search on fuzzy sets AND
applications retrieves 204 patents. Many of
patents are very extensive and appear to be potentially
useful for this class. For example, the following
patents were located and all of them feature a
reference section of articles:
- "Fuzzy Thesaurus Generator."
- "Fuzzy logic method for an indirect measure of a physical signal to be monitored and corresponding measuring device."
- "Automatic Aircraft Landing."
- "State Estimating Apparatus"
- The IBM Patent Server
- European Patent Office
- United Kingdom Patent Office
- Japanese Patent Office

Call Number: KF3114.8 .E54 W48
Government Documents and Research
- One of the best places to start research for government publications
is FirstGov
- A search on fuzzy sets applications retrieves 1,229 matches. Many matches are excerpts from articles, but some potentially useful sources turn up. There is a pointer, for example, to a nice web site devoted to fuzzy logic: Fuzzy Logic at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
