C++ Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic: Preface

Examples of Fuzzy Logic

Let us say five tasks have to be performed in a given period of time, and each task requires one person

dedicated to it. Suppose there are six people capable of doing these tasks. As you have more than enough

people, there is no problem in scheduling this work and getting it done. Of course who gets assigned to which

task depends on some criterion, such as total time for completion, on which some optimization can be done.

But suppose these six people are not necessarily available during the particular period of time in question.

Suddenly, the equation is seen in less than crisp terms. The availability of the people is fuzzy−valued. Here is

an example of an assignment problem where fuzzy sets can be used.
