Fuzzy logic is a computational method that allows computers to make decisions based on imprecise or incomplete data. It works by assigning degrees of truth or probability scores to different kinds of input so that it can decide which action will have the most favorable outcome.

Fuzzy inferencing uses fuzzy sets and fuzzy rules to represent knowledge and infer conclusions from them. The knowledge is represented by mathematical structures called “fuzzy sets” which contain all possible values and corresponding membership gradations, while the inference engine applies pre-defined fuzzy operators on these sets to process them in order to finally obtain accurate results.

Some common applications include industrial automation, robotics, control systems, computer network security, medical diagnosis and decision support systems. In addition, fuzzy inferences can be applied to tasks such as speech recognition and natural language processing.

The accuracy of a system depends largely on its ability to effectively take into account uncertainties or vagueness in the input data. Generally speaking, however, modern advanced technologies are able to provide better results than traditional methods due to their high flexibility and robustness when dealing with noisy data.

Commonly used software includes MatLab/Simulink, SciLab/Xcos and Scilab/Fuzzylab etc., all of which have an integrated set of tools specifically designed for implementing fuzzy inference algorithms. These programs provide graphical user interfaces (GUIs) so that users can easily design their own complex control system structures interactively without having in-depth programming knowledge.
