It is based on the theory of fuzzy set. A fuzzy set is different from a classical set because it breaks the Law of the Excluded Middle. In fact, an item may belong to a fuzzy set and its complement at the same time and with the same or different degree of membership. The degree of membership of an item in a fuzzy set can be any real number included between 0 and 1. This property enables us to deal with all those statements of which truths are a matter of degree. Fuzzy logic plays a relevant role in the field of Artificial Intelligence because it enables decision-making in complex situations, where there are many intertwined variables involved. Traditionally, fuzzy logic is implemented through software on a computer or, even better, through analog electronic circuits. Recently, the idea of using molecules and chemical reactions to process fuzzy logic has been promoted. In fact, the molecular word is fuzzy in its essence. The overlapping of quantum states, on the one hand, and the conformational heterogeneity of large molecules, on the other, enable context-specific functions to emerge in response to changing environmental conditions. Moreover, analog input–output relationships, involving not only electrical but also other physical and chemical variables can be exploited to build fuzzy logic systems. The development of “fuzzy chemical systems” is tracing a new path in the field of artificial intelligence. This new path shows that artificially intelligent systems can be implemented not only through software and electronic circuits but also through solutions of properly chosen chemical compounds. The design of chemical artificial intelligent systems and chemical robots promises to have a significant impact on science, medicine, economy, security, and wellbeing. Therefore, it is my great pleasure to announce a Special Issue of Molecules entitled “The Fuzziness in Molecular, Supramolecular, and Systems Chemistry.” All researchers who experience the Fuzziness of the molecular world or use Fuzzy logic to understand Chemical Complex Systems will be interested in this book.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscfuzzy logiccomplexitychemical artificial intelligencehuman nervous systemfuzzy proteinsconformationsphotochromic compoundsqubitprotein dynamicsconformational heterogeneitypromiscuityfuzzy complexeshigher-order structuresprotein evolutionfuzzy set theoryartificial intelligenceGCN4 mimeticpeptides-DNAE:Z photoisomerizationconformational fuzzinessphotoelectrochemistrywide bandgap semiconductorartificial neuronin materio computingneuromorphic computingintrinsically disordered proteinintrinsically disordered protein regionliquid-liquid phase transitionprotein-protein interactionprotein-nucleic acid interactionproteinaceous membrane-less organellefuzzy complex.d-TSTactivation energyTransitivity plotsolution kineticMaxwell-Boltzmann pathEuler's formula for the exponentialactivationtransitivitytransport phenomenamoonlighting proteinsintrinsically disordered proteinsmetamorphic proteinsmorpheeinsResearch & information: generalBiology, life sciencesGentili Pieredt1291793Gentili PierothBOOK9910557495003321The Fuzziness in Molecular, Supramolecular, and Systems Chemistry3021928UNINA
