Fuzzy Logic-Based Software Systems

Fuzzy logic was introduced by Lotfi A. Zadeh in 1965 as a methodology for computing with words and since then it is used extensively. It is an artificial intelligent technique that is ideal for successfully addressing, , the uncertainty, imprecision and vagueness that exist in many diverse scientific and technological areas. It is used in software systems to automatically predict, model, decide, diagnose, recommend etc.. In this chapter, several Fuzzy Logic-based software systems in the discipline of medicine, education, decision making and recommendation, natural language processing, automotive engineering and industry, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, navigation, scheduling, network traffic and security are presented. This chapter aims to provide deep insights and valuable information about significant advances of Fuzzy Logic in software systems to researchers, scientists, educators, students, software engineers and developers.
