Computational Intelligence and Fuzzy Modeling for Sustainable Decision-Making in Engineering Processes 2022
Description
Decision-making (DM) problems under uncertain and vague information are a big challenge for researchers. Computational intelligent techniques (e.g., neural networks, fuzzy systems, neuro-fuzzy systems, and evolutionary algorithms) have been successfully applied for many engineering problems. Computational intelligence has been applied in terms of theory, design. Within this field, there are emerging trends such as granular computing, complex systems, information fusion, mechatronics, and bioinformatics.
Computational intelligence shows its usefulness and has been often emphasized by Professor Lotfi Zadeh, the inventor of fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is a fundamental and well-studied approach for dealing with vague, uncertain, ambiguous, and imprecise information. This is due to the fuzzy logic's suitability for explaining uncertainties and coping with various DM problems. As a result, fuzzy logic has been commonly implemented to deal with a significant fraction of incomplete knowledge in various situations and contexts. There have been many popular applications and implementations of fuzzy logic in the DM over the years. The DM has been one of the branches in which fuzzy logic has found widespread use.
