Proceedings... Debrecen: EFITAc2003  ap. 768-775.  aEFITA 2003.  aThis paper presents a model of the diagnosis and control that incorporates concepts of abductive inference, fuzzy set logic and decision theory aiming at building a new approach called Fuzzy Covering Theory - FCT. In this paper, focus on the application of this approach to the diagnosis of corn plants diseases, although it can be used in other domains.  aDecision making  aDisease diagnosis  aFuzzy logic  aTomada de decisão  aAbductive inference  aFuzzy set  aLógica difusa1 aSANDRI, S.
