Course Objectives Fuzzy Set Theory is a tool that can be applied to ambiguous, complicated, complex, or nonlinear systems or problems, which cannot easily solved by classical set theory or probability theory. In this course the fundamental of fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic will be introduce. In addition, this course also introduces applications of fuzzy logic in several areas such as fuzzy control and fuzzy decision making
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • will be able to interpret systems using fundamentals of fuzzy set theory.
  • will be able to solve decision problems using Fuzzy logic.
  • will be able to analyze Fuzzy control systems.
  • will be able to introduce new fuzzy systems.
  • will be able to express the relationship between Fuzzy set theory and probability theory.
Course Description This course aims to cover the fundemental fuzzy theory and its applications of fuzzy logic.
