Is fuzzy logic relevant to modern Artificial Intelligent
« on: April 22, 2016, 07:47:06 am »
Hi all,

I am considering studying a master in AI by Monfort University (UK)
http://www.dmu.ac.uk/study/courses/postgraduate-courses/intelligent-systems/intelligent-systems-msc-degree.aspx

One of the 8 modules is Fuzzy Logic.

In the months I have been reading about Artificial Intelligence (and I have read a lot) I haven't found a single time anything about fuzzy logic.

Is fuzzy logic relevant today or maybe this master programme is outdated?

Thanks.

Hi Educob :)

Fuzzy logic is a nice thing to know about. It is a nice extrapolation of two-valued logic. Who knows, maybe it can be useful somehow. Try googling it if you are interested, there are even articles in Wikipedia.

Hi Educob… and Welcome.

I haven’t heard the term ‘Fuzzy Logic’ in a while either lol.

The term was introduced back in the early days of AI research. It’s a general ‘cover all’ description of how a system handles/ filters and matches data.

In simplistic terms…

IF a=1 Then … NOT Fuzzy

IF a>1 and a<5 Then … Fuzzy

All current machine learning systems have an element of Fuzzy Logic.

So… Yeah! Fuzzy is very relevant to AI and is required learning.

It thunk... therefore it is!...    /    Project Page    /    KorrTecx Website

Fuzzy logic is a disease. Giving numerical values to the closeness of meaning of 2 words is a funny exercise, but not a basis you want to build your AI on. Study fundamental mathematics, that helps you more undestand intelligence.
