A Well-Founded Semantics for Logic Programs with Abstract
... model semantics was first proposed for normal logic programs by Gelfond and Lifschitz in 1988, various extensions have been put forward for theoretical and/or practical reasons. These include disjunctive logic programs (Gelfond and Lifschitz 1991), nested logic programs (Lifschitz, Tang, and Turner ...

Fuzzy logic
Fuzzy logic is a form of many-valued logic in which the truth values of variables may be any real number between 0 and 1. By contrast, in Boolean logic, the truth values of variables may only be 0 or 1. Fuzzy logic has been extended to handle the concept of partial truth, where the truth value may range between completely true and completely false. Furthermore, when linguistic variables are used, these degrees may be managed by specific functions.The term fuzzy logic was introduced with the 1965 proposal of fuzzy set theory by Lotfi A. Zadeh. Fuzzy logic has been applied to many fields, from control theory to artificial intelligence. Fuzzy logic had however been studied since the 1920s, as infinite-valued logic—notably by Łukasiewicz and Tarski.
