Fuzzy logic looks beyond traditional logic and the binary duality of true and false, or one and zero. Within fuzzy logic, something can be partially true; it recognizes a spectrum and gradient of ...

Identifying cancer cells in a medical image and altering the trajectory of airplanes at take-off and landing to reduce noise pollution are just two of the goals of new research projects based on the ...

My degree is in control engineering. When I was at university (way back in the mists of time), the most sophisticated control techniques we had were bang-bang control, sequence control, and ...

Amid all the dire warnings that machines run by artificial intelligence (AI) will one day take over from humans we need to think more about how we program them in the first place. The technology may ...

A Pakistani-Chinese research group has demonstrated a new maximum power point tracking method, based on a fuzzy logic algorithm to provide faster results. The converter tech is claimed to have an ...

Innovative design continues to exploit the power of neural and related techniques. Always more popular with Japanese and Pacific Rim consumer-product designers, fuzzy logic did not catch on to the ...

For most of the twentieth century, geopolitical analysis rested on a comforting fiction: that the world could be divided cleanly into categories. States were allies or adversaries, wars were declared ...
