Need for Data Processing Naturally Leads to Fuzzy Logic (and Neural Networks): Fuzzy beyond Experts and beyond Probabilities
© 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Fuzzy techniques have been originally designed to describe imprecise ("fuzzy") expert knowledge. Somewhat surprisingly, fuzzy techniques have also been successfully used in situations without expert knowledge, when all we have is data. In this paper, we expla...
