    Abstract

    We present fuzzy sets as a tool of interest for marketing. Fuzzy sets are an extension of conventional sets, allowing partial membership of an element in the set Using these sets, we create a model for consumer choice which may combine vector and point models, including models with more than one ideal point We also review the normative power of fuzzy sets models, which are currently used for control, since they can be used for problems otherwise not tractable.
