A very brief history of soft computing: Fuzzy Sets, artificial Neural Networks and Evolutionary Computation
Rudolf Seising, Marco Elio Tabacchi · 2013
This paper gives a brief presentation of history of Soft Computing considered as a mix of three scientific disciplines that arose in the mid of the 20thcentury: Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Neural Networks, and Evolutionary Computation. The paper shows the genesis and the historical development of the three disciplines and also their meeting in a coalition in the 1990s.
