Question
hello sir,can u tell me,is there any difference between fuzzy logic and neural networks?if yes what? and if no,then how would u like to relate them?thank u.

Answer
Hi, Kalyani,

Fuzzy logic has emerged as a mathematical tool to deal with the uncertainties in human perception and reasoning. It also provides a framework for an inference mechanism that allows for approximate human reasoning capabilities to be applied to knowledge-based systems. On the other hand, artificial neural networks have emerged as fast computation tools with learning and adaptivity capabilities. Recently, these two fields have been integrated into a new emerging technology called fuzzy neural networks which combines the benefits of each field.

Best wishes,
Saurabh
