Fuzzy Logic

Fuzzy Logic

1. an approach to uncertainty arising from complexity

2. proposed by Zadeh in 1965

3. uncertainty due to incomplete and imprecise knowledge

4. it controls wide range of applications

5. Classical Logic

   • quantities are certain
   • all propositions are either true or false (Boolean Logic)
   • semi decidable
   • characteristic function

6. Applications:

   • Control Systems
   • Games
   • Networking
   • Artificial Intelligence
   • Robots

7. Fuzzy Logic Algorithm

   • appoint linguistic variables and terms (initialization)
   • create membership functions (initialization)
   • create rule base (initialization)
   • convert crisp input data to fuzzy values based on the membership functions (Fuzzification)
   • evaluate the rules in the rule base (inference)
   • combine the results of rules (aggregation)
   • convert output data to non-fuzzy value (Defuzzification)

8. Fuzzy Compatibility Function

   • generalization of classical characteristic function to compatibility function
   • denotes how well an object has an attribute

9. Defuzzification
