Bernadette Bouchon-Meunier

Bernadette Bouchon-Meunier is a retired French computer scientist specializing in fuzzy logic. She is a director of research, emeritus, for the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), the former head of the Department of Databases and Machine Learning (DAPA) in LIP6, a computer science laboratory operated jointly by CNRS and Pierre and Marie Curie University, editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Uncertainty, Fuzziness and Knowledge-Based Systems, and a past president of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society.[1]

Education and career

Bouchon-Meunier studied at the École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay and has bachelor's and doctoral degrees from Pierre and Marie Curie University.[1] Her work in fuzzy logic began in 1973, through the analysis of natural-language responses to survey questionnaires in sociology.[2]

She is editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Uncertainty, Fuzziness and Knowledge-Based Systems,[3] and was president of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society for 2020 and 2021.[4]

Recognition

Bouchon-Meunier was the 2012 recipient of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society Meritorious Service Award, the 2018 recipient of the society's Fuzzy Systems Pioneer Award,[5] and the 2024 recipient of the IEEE Frank Rosenblatt Award.[6]

She was named as an IEEE Fellow in 2011, "for contributions to theoretical foundations for reasoning and applications to practical devices".[7] She is also a Fellow of the International Fuzzy Systems Association.[8]
