Sarah Greenfield is a Senior Lecturer in the
Institute of Artificial Intelligence, Faculty of Computing, Engineering and
Media at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK. She is a member of the European
Society for Fuzzy Logic and Technology (EUSFLAT) and a Senior Member of the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). She received her BA
in Mathematics and Philosophy from London University in 1978. In 2005, she was awarded a distinction in the
MSc IT degree from De Montfort University, and in 2012 she was awarded a Ph.D.
at De Montfort’s Centre for Computational Intelligence, working under the
supervision of Prof Chiclana. Her enduring interest in logic and the philosophy
of mathematics was reflected in her original choice of degree subject. Her MSc
project was in the field of type-2 fuzzy logic, and her Ph.D. studies continued
this theme in her exploration of mathematical and philosophical aspects of type-2
fuzzy logic in relation to such topics as uncertainty modelling and
defuzzification. Since completing her studies she has widened her research
interests to include computational intelligence and data analysis applied to
areas such as health and transport.
