Abstract

This chapter explores fuzzy logic controllers from the point of view of its applications. The chapter covers the fuzzy logic controllers of Mamdani and Takagi-Sugeno-Kang. These are illustrated with applications in biology, ecology, HIV dynamics, and pharmacological decay.

There are and there will be many tasks that men can do easily, which that is beyond any machine and any logical system that we can conceive of today.
