Abstract :
In this paper we provide an insight into fuzzy sets as points in the hypercube. This approach to geometry of fuzzy sets was first published by Bart Kosko in the 1980s. After a brief survey we show two applications of this theory in life sciences: fuzzy diseases and fuzzy genomes. This historical and analytical contribution to the 2nd IEEE Workshop on Soft Computing Applications is a sequel to the paper "Representing fuzzy sets in the hypercube. part I: a historical note".
