Fuzzy logic is an important concept in medical decision making. Since medical and healthcare data can be subjective or fuzzy, applications in this domain have a great potential to benefit a lot by using fuzzy-logic-based approaches. Fuzzy logic can be used in many different aspects within the medical decision making framework.
A fuzzy control system is a control system based on fuzzy logic—a mathematical system that analyzes analog input values in terms of logical variables that take on continuous values between 0 and 1, in contrast to classical or digital logic, which operates on discrete values of either 1 or 0 (true or false, respectively).
Fuzzy rules are used within fuzzy logic systems to infer an output based on input variables. Modus ponens and modus tollens are the most important rules of inference. [1] A modus ponens rule is in the form Premise: x is A Implication: IF x is A THEN y is B Consequent: y is B. In crisp logic, the premise x is A can only be true or false
Let (G, *) be a group and A a fuzzy subset of G. Then A is a fuzzy subgroup of G if for all x, y in G, A(x*y −1) ≥ min(A(x), A(y −1)). A similar generalization principle is used, for example, for fuzzification of the transitivity property. Let R be a fuzzy relation on X, i.e. R is a fuzzy subset of X × X.
A systematic study of particular t-norm fuzzy logics and their classes began with Hájek's (1998) monograph Metamathematics of Fuzzy Logic, which presented the notion of the logic of a continuous t-norm, the logics of the three basic continuous t-norms (Łukasiewicz, Gödel, and product), and the 'basic' fuzzy logic BL of all continuous t-norms ...
Nowadays engineers, statisticians and programmers often represent fuzzy concepts mathematically, using fuzzy logic, fuzzy values, fuzzy variables and fuzzy sets. [13] Fuzzy logic can play a significant role in artificial intelligence programming, for example because it can model human cognitive processes more easily.
Fuzzy set operations are a generalization of crisp set operations for fuzzy sets. There is in fact more than one possible generalization. There is in fact more than one possible generalization. The most widely used operations are called standard fuzzy set operations ; they comprise: fuzzy complements , fuzzy intersections , and fuzzy unions .
Type-2 fuzzy sets and systems generalize standard Type-1 fuzzy sets and systems so that more uncertainty can be handled. From the beginning of fuzzy sets, criticism was made about the fact that the membership function of a type-1 fuzzy set has no uncertainty associated with it, something that seems to contradict the word fuzzy, since that word has the connotation of much uncertainty.
