Oscar Castillo

Oscar Castillo holds the Doctor in Science degree (Doctor Habilitatus) in Computer Science from the Polish Academy of Sciences (with the Dissertation “Soft Computing and Fractal Theory for Intelligent Manufacturing”). He is a Professor of Computer Science in the Graduate Division, Tijuana Institute of Technology, Tijuana, Mexico. He belongs to the Level 3 of the National System of Researchers (SNI) of Mexico. In addition, he is serving as Research Director of Computer Science and head of the research group on fuzzy logic and genetic algorithms. Currently, he is Vice-President of HAFSA (Hispanic American Fuzzy Systems Association) and President of IFSA (International Fuzzy Systems Association). Prof. Castillo is also Chair of the Mexican Chapter of the Computational Intelligence Society (IEEE). He also belongs to the Technical Committee on Fuzzy Systems of IEEE and to the Task Force on “Extensions to Type-1 Fuzzy Systems”. He is also a member of NAFIPS, IFSA and IEEE. His research interests are in Type-2 Fuzzy Logic, Intuitionistic Fuzzy Logic, Fuzzy Control, Neuro-Fuzzy and Genetic-Fuzzy hybrid approaches. He has published over 390 papers, including 180 journal papers and 200 papers in conference proceedings, and has published 7 authored books and 25 edited books,. He is Associate Editor of several journals, like the IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, and the Journal of Information Sciences. He has been Guest Editor of several successful Special Issues in the past, like “Soft Computing for Control of Non-Linear Dynamical Systems” in the Journal of Applied Soft Computing, 2003 (Elsevier), “Hybrid Intelligent Systems” in the Journal of Non-Linear Studies, 2004 (I&S Publishers), and “Soft Computing for Modeling, Simulation, and “Control of Non-Linear Dynamical Systems” in the Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2005 (Wiley).
