Fuzzy logic [26] is an alternative approach to control system design. Fuzzy logic works within the framework of set theory and is better at dealing with ambiguities. For example, three sets may be defined for a sensor: hard failure, soft failure, and no failure. The three sets may overlap and at any given time the sensor may have a degree of membership in each set. The degree of membership in each set can be used to determine what action to take. An algorithmic approach would have to assign a number to the state of ...
