HEURISTIC APPROACH TO FUZZY TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS

Category: Engineering, Science and Mathematics

Abstract:

Fuzzy logic is shown to be a very promising mathematical approach to modelling the transportation processes characterized by subjectivity, ambiguity, and uncertainty and imprecision. The basic premises of fuzzy logic systems are also presented as a detailed analysis of fuzzy logic systems developed to solve various transportation problems. Fuzzy logic systems are found to be important as universal approximates in solving transportation problems. Studies regarding further applications of fuzzy logic have been done. Zadeh was the first to introduce the concept of fuzzy set theory.
