Course Objective

This course aims to provide the students with an overview of the fields of applied models of fuzzy logic including methodologies and procedures. It aims to convey the key techniques of construction and using of fuzzy parameters. It also aims to provide the students computational techniques for representation and process fuzzy information in decision making problems.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Understanding both theoretical and practical knowledge and skills to represent fuzzy information in mathematical models.
2   Understanding of the basic mathematical techniques used for processing fuzzy information in modeling process.
3   Understanding of the basic decision making techniques with fuzzy information.
4   Understanding of the basic applied tools used in fuzzy systems.
5   Having ability to develop a practical fuzzy system.
