20 Mar fuzzy

Reasoning techniques that apply to constraints, multiple values of truth, or confidence to solve problems. Fuzzy techniques can be used in computer algorithms that mimic human cognition to overcome the brittleness of programs that can only address two possible values (true or false) in judging issues. Recognizing shades of truth or confidence enables AI programs to suggest possible answers when none is certain.
