- Abstract
The term Soft Computing was coined by L.A. Zadeh in the early 90's. Since that time many researchers have tried to define it considering different approaches: main constituents, properties, abilities, etc. In addition, the term Computational Intelligence has also gained popularity having a somehow quite close meaning to that of Soft Computing. The central idea of this paper is to present, analyze, compare and discuss a few of the definitions that can be found on literature; not trying to find the best but to offer the reader arguments to make his/her own decision.
