Ebook: Fuzzy Logic Applications in Computer Science and Mathematics

Covered in this book are topics such as the fundamental concepts of mathematics, fuzzy logic concepts, probability and possibility theories, and evolutionary computing to some extent. The combined fields of neural network and fuzzy domain (known as the neuro-fuzzy system) are explained and elaborated through many highly regarded research papers. Each chapter has been produced in a very lucid manner, with a grading from simple to complex in an effort to accommodate different audiences.

The application-oriented approach is the unique feature of this book. Apart from the theoretical discussion, the problems and the allied case studies concerned with the topics discussed in this book will be of great interest to a broad audience. The problems and the case studies furnished in this book are worthwhile to researchers and academicians, as well. This book comprises state-of-the-art information on a wide range of various subjects, all directly or indirectly connected to the overarching topic.

The prime objective of developing this book was to provide meticulous details about the basic and advanced concepts of fuzzy logic and its all-around applications to different fields of mathematics and engineering. The book caters to a certain level of professional knowledge, academicians, students, and researchers. The basic steps of fuzzy inference systems starting from the core foundation of the fuzzy concepts are presented in this book. The fuzzy theory is a mathematical concept and, at the same time, it is applied to many versatile engineering fields and research domains related to computer science. The fuzzy system offers some knowledge about uncertainty and also is related to the theory of probability. A fuzzy logic-based model acts as the classifier for many different types of data belonging to several classes.
