Fuzzy logic is a method of conditional logic that accounts for partial truth. It allows for multi-valued variables between 0 and 1 rather than binary true/false. Fuzzy logic systems involve fuzzifying inputs, applying fuzzy rules and membership functions, then defuzzifying outputs. Fuzzy sets can be combined using operations like union and intersection that take the maximum and minimum membership values. Fuzzy control systems apply these concepts to develop control strategies based on imprecise and uncertain inputs.
