Crisp and Soft Computing with Hypercubical Calculus, 1999 New Approaches to Modeling in Cognitive Science and Technology with Parity Logic, Fuzzy Logic, and Evolutionary Computing Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing Series, Vol. 27

In Part I, the impact of an integro-differential operator on parity logic engines (PLEs) as a tool for scientific modeling from scratch is presented. Part II outlines the fuzzy structural modeling approach for building new linear and nonlinear dynamical causal forecasting systems in terms of fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs). Part III introduces the new type of autogenetic algorithms (AGAs) to the field of evolutionary computing. Altogether, these PLEs, FCMs, and AGAs may serve as conceptual and computational power tools.
