Marco Elio Tabacchi is currently a professor of Computational Logic at DMI, Università degli Studi di Palermo, and a prize-winning print-maker and aquatintist. He oversees the SCo^2 (Soft Computing for Cognitive Sciences) Research Group and the SDF Project (which aims at building an AI based geo-thematical DSS), is head of local unit of a PRIN 2022 PNRR project on Quantum Models for Logic, Computation and Natural Processes, and is a coordinator of EuSFLaT Working Group on Philosophical Foundations, as well as ambassador of the FM Square foundation. Formerly, he was the scientific director at Istituto Nazionale di Ricerche Demopolis (a position he still holds ad honorem), a mentor at PDP Tanuki spin-off, and for two mandates, a board member of AISC (Italian Association for Cognitive Science). His scientific interest lies at the borders between fuzzy DSS, complexity in Art and CL4IA. Settimo Termini was a full professor of Theoretical Computer Science at the University of Palermo from 1990 until his retirement in 2015 and of Cybernetics and Information Theory at the University of Perugia from 1987 to 1990; a CNR researcher from 1969 to 1987 at the Institute of Cybernetics ＂Eduardo Caianiello＂ in Naples, which he, subsequently, directed from 2002 to 2009. Fellow of the International Fuzzy Systems Association (IFSA) and EUSFLAT 2017 Italian Fuzzy Pioneer Award, Vice President of the ＂Accademia nazionale di scienze, lettere e arti di Palermo＂ and President of the ＂Marina Diana Mercurio Association＂.
A theoretical physicist by training, he has mainly dealt with the problems posed by the treatment of incomplete and revisable information in complex systems, introducing among the first in Italy issues related to fuzzy systems and initiating the theory of fuzziness measures.
