   but since there are numerous ways of combining truth values, one should   
   know how to choose a proper one. As stated by many people (also see   
   Dmitry Kazakov's post in the same thread), the choice depends on   
   application domains. But till now I still have not seen any concrete   
   examples of in which case min-norm should be prefered than product-norm,   
   and vice versa. For me dependency seems to be the only imaginable way   
   for choosing...
