f Integration of mineral exploration data using fuzzy set theory

The traditional geophysical information processing theory is founded on Boolean logic and in Euclidean space. However, accurate assessment of given sets of multiple layer exploration data requires that one must define preciseness of one's knowledge as precisely as possible. Fuzzy logic provides a theoretical means of quantifying imprecise information, which was first utilized as early as 1965 and has been extensively applied since in engineering and related sciences. Fuzzy set theory is tested and applied to integrate geophysical, geological and remote sensing data sets in this research.
