What is the meaning of Fuzzy Logic?
Fuzzy logic is a superset of conventional (Boolean)
logic that has been extended to multi-valued sets, to handle
the concept of partial truth, that is, truth values between
completely true and completely false. Fuzzy logic was
introduced in 1965 by Dr Lotfi Zahdek, then Chair of
UC Berkley’s Electrical Engineering Department, as a way of modelling
the uncertainties of natural language. See Kosko (1993). In psychological
terms, Pinker (1997: 101) explains that ... " In many
domains people do not have all-or-none convictions about whether something
is true."
