Carol Walker Selected as the 2001 Distinguished Alumna
The College of Arts and Sciences of the New Mexico State University
has selected Carol
Walker as the 2001 Distinguished Alumna. She has co-authored
several textbooks and published many professional articles in
different areas of algebra. In particular, since mid-1990s, one of her
main areas of research is algebraic foundations of the theory and
applications of interval-valued fuzzy sets. This is a research
area closely related to interval computations, when a degree of
confidence in an expert statement is represented by a subinterval of
the interval [0,1], and logical operations transform intervals into
intervals.
Carol is one of the world leading specialists in this area.
Her main related publications are:
