Applications of Fuzzy Theory in Applied Sciences and Computer Applications

In the realm of computational intelligence, the age-old adage, “not everything is black and white,” has never been more pertinent. Through the lens of fuzzy logic and neutrosophic systems, Applications of Fuzzy Theory in Applied Sciences and Computer Applications unravels the complex tapestry of uncertainty, imprecision, and subjectivity in real-world scenarios. This book stands as a testament to the power of fuzzy systems in bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and their pragmatic applications. Chapter one introduces readers to the ever-evolving realm of biometrics, specifically focusing on face recognition. The complexities of human features demand a system that can navigate the nuances, and fuzzy pattern recognition presents a promising solution. Diving deeper into the world of health and demography in chapter two, the authors explore the potential of fuzzy inference systems in mortality studies. By incorporating a degree of uncertainty, these systems offer a more holistic view of mortality trends and predictions. From biometrics and health, we shift our focus to the mathematical underpinnings of neutrosophic logic in chapter three. Here, the application of neutrosophy over digraphs is meticulously dissected, offering readers an intricate understanding of this unique conjunction. The subsequent chapters delve into various other fields, from reliability analysis and higher education to fisheries and supply chain management, demonstrating the pervasive influence of fuzzy and neutrosophic systems in diverse domains. Chapter twelve concludes this enlightening journey with a life-altering application ― the utilization of fuzzy logic in the detection and classification of brain tumors. Through this chapter, the profound impact of fuzzy systems on healthcare and diagnostics is underscored. This promises a transformative journey, ensuring that by the end, readers will look at uncertainty not as a challenge, but as an opportunity to explore, innovate, and excel. Whether you’re a seasoned researcher, a professional seeking innovative solutions, or a curious student, this book has insights to offer to everyone. Welcome to a world where the lines are blurred, but the visions are clear.
