Life

Abe Mamdani was born in Tanzania in June 1942. He was educated in India and in 1966 he went to UK.[2]

He obtained his PhD at Queen Mary College, University of London. After that he joined its Electrical Engineering Department[2]

In 1975 he introduced a new method of fuzzy inference systems, which was called Mamdani-Type Fuzzy Inference.[3] Mamdani-Type Fuzzy Inference have characters like human instincts, working under the rules of linguistics and has a fuzzy algorithm that provides an approximation to enter mathematical analysis.[4]

In July 1995, he moved from Queen Mary College to Imperial College London.

Awards and honors

Abe Mamdani was an Emeritus Professor at Imperial College London. He received the "European Fuzzy Pioneer Award" from the European Society for Fuzzy Logic and Technology (EUSFLAT) in 1999, and the "Fuzzy Systems Pioneer Award" from Computational Intelligence Society of the IEEE in 2003. He was also a Fellow of IEEE, IFSA, and of the Royal Academy of Engineering and the IEE in the UK.[2]

gollark: I guess one might be network connectivity, since your moonbrain being several light-years from a stargate would make it not very useful for real-time stuff.
gollark: It seems like - since there's not any mention of the eldraeverse having moonbrains everywhere - there's some reason you can't just cheaply stick some self-replicating machinery on a planet and come back in a hundred years and... do moonbrain things.
gollark: Giant fractal things are a nice decoration for *any* planet, really.
gollark: Especially since the magic phased array thing will probably dump lots of heat for all the computing and... phased-arraying, I have no idea how an optical one would actually work internally.
gollark: I think a big problem for this whole moonbrain thing might be heat.
