September 6, 2017 in Berkeley (USA, California) at the 97-th year, the Great scientist of modernity Lotfi Askar Zadeh passed away. In the person of L.Zade, who is the founder of a number of major scientific directions in applied mathematics and the theory of artificial intelligence, world science has suffered an irreparable loss. Professor L.Zadeh was one of those few scientists whose original ideas are capable of generating new fundamental scientific paradigms that are rapidly changing notions about the environment. The world-famous scientist was brought by his scientific research, which laid the foundations of the theory of fuzzy sets and linguistic variables. L.Zadeh is the personal founder of fuzzy logic and the theory of approximate reasoning, the author of the theory of possibility and the general theory of uncertainty, the developer of the theory of Z-numbers and generalized constraints, the founder of granular and soft computing.
