Abstract
My approach to fuzzy sets and possibility theory goes back many years ago when, at the beginning of Eighties’ with Vito Di Gesú we started our studies on pattern recognition, features selection, image analysis and mathematical morphology.
Nowadays my scientific activity is a bit different and my memory may be blurred; nevertheless I’ll try to remember the intriguing “atmosphere” we lived at that time.
