Presents a simple and didactic introduction to the principles of Type-2 Fuzzy Logic and extends them to state-of-the art methods in model-based control techniques

Uses application scenarios based on process control engineering domains, which are commonly used as a benchmark in the literature, providing a comparative standpoint to other control algorithm's implementations

Provides an open-source software framework where the algorithms used in the book are available, written for Matlab/Simulink and in C Language for embedded systems
