Dadios E.P. (ed.) Fuzzy Logic - Algorithms. Techniques and Implementations

InTech, 2012. — 294 p.Algorithm is used to define the notion of decidability. It is a set of rules that precisely defines a sequence of operations. This is essential for computers to process information. Computer programs contain algorithms that detail specific instructions a computer should perform to carry out a specified task. The traditional computer program performs specific instructions sequentially, and uses crisp values of information which do not support uncertainties. Thus, when a problem is getting harder and becoming more complex, alternative algorithms are required in order to obtain accurate solutions. To this date, the quest of discovering new algorithms is in a race. The fuzzy logic algorithm is one of very strong contender s in this race because fuzzy logic exhibits reasoning power similar to how humans reason out. Fuzzy logic is able to process incomplete data and provide approximate solutions to problems other methods find difficult to solve. Fuzzy logic was first proposed by Lotfi A. Zadeh of the University of California at Berkeley in 1965. This is based on the idea that humans do not think in terms of crisp numbers, but rather in terms of concepts. The degree of membership of an object in a concept may be partial, with an object being partially related with many concepts. By characterizing the idea of partial membership in concepts, fuzzy logic is better able to convert natural language control strategies in a form usable by machines. This book presents Algorithms, Techniques, and Implementations of fuzzy logic.Hybrid Fuzzy Logic Algorithms.
