	- found problem with stringifycation in Set.pm
	- fixed warning messages due to not checking "exists" for hash 
	  values in Set.pm (union,intersection).  Thanks to Richard Jelinek
	  for pointing this out, and a problem in the code in the docs.

        - replaced current AI::Fuzzy::Label with a new AI::Fuzzy::Axis (a container for label objects)
          and changed AI::Fuzzy::Label to be concerned only about label data.  This
          will allow us to add new AI::Fuzzy::Label{Spline, Trapezoid, etc.} subclasses
          of labels to the now independent Axis class.  Axis will defer to the Label
          itself to decide applicability, >,<,>=,<=, and the like.
        - changed test.pl to work with the new setup
        - added functions: greaterthan, greaterequal, lessthan, lessequal, and between
          to AI::Fuzzy::Label
        - added overriding of >,>=,<,<=, and <=> in AI::Fuzzy::Label.

	- added functions: support, core, height, is_normal, is_subnormal
	  to AI::Fuzzy::Set

Fuzzy.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

AI::Fuzzy really consists of three modules - AI::Fuzzy::Axis, AI::Fuzzy::Label, and
AI::Fuzzy::Set.  

A fuzzy set is simply a mathematical set to which members can
I<partially> belong. For example, a particular shade of gray may
partially belong to the set of dark colors, whereas black would have
full membership, and lemon yellow would have almost no membership.

A fuzzy axis holds fuzzy labels and can be used to classify values
by examining the degree to which they belong to several labels, and 
selecting the most appropriate.  For example, it can decide whether 
to call water at 60 degrees Farenheight "cold", "cool", or "warm". 

A fuzzy label classifies a particular range of the Axis. In the above example 
the label is one of "cold", "cool", or "warm". A fuzzy label defines how
much a crisp value belongs to the classifier such as "cold", "warm", or "cool".

    AI::Fuzzy really consists of two modules - AI::Fuzzy::Label and
    AI::Fuzzy::Set.

    A fuzzy set is simply a mathematical set to which members can
    *partially* belong. For example, a particular shade of gray may
    partially belong to the set of dark colors, whereas black would have
    full membership, and lemon yellow would have almost no membership.

    A fuzzy labeler classifies a particular crisp value by examining the
    degree to which it belongs to several sets, and selecting the most
    appropriate. For example, it can decide whether to call water at 60
    degrees Farenheight "cold", "cool", or "warm". A fuzzy label might be
    one of these labels, or a fuzzy set describing to what degree each of
    the labels describes the particular value in question.

  Fuzzy Sets

    AI::Fuzzy:Set has these methods:

        $fs = B<new> AI::Fuzzy::Set;
