Abstract

I had the pleasure of meeting Prof. Trillas in an informative talk at Santiago de Compostela, organized by Prof. Alejandro Sobrino in the late eighties. We started an academic and scientific relationship, and he was my Ph. D. advisor, finishing in the year 2000 [2]. He guided me for introducing the Fuzzy Deformable Prototypes (from now on FDPs), which can provide an adequate formal framework for working with prediction systems and, in general, representing and dealing with prototypical knowledge in every application.
