3. Soft computing is a field of computer
science which makes use of inexact
solutions for problems which has no
known method to compute an exact
solution
It uses imprecision, uncertainty, partial
truth, and approximation as input
4. Hard computing
Deals with precise values
Accurate output is needed
Useful in critical systems
Soft computing
Deals with assumptions
Accuracy is not necessary
Useful for routine,control, decison making tasks
6. • Founded in 1940
• Artificial neural network mimics the
biological neuron network in function
Warren S Mullcock
7. • Based on fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic
• Uses numeric ranges of sets (fuzzy sets )
to measure and represent the logical
evaluations of partially accurate findings
• Most applications in control and decision
making
• Founded by Lofti A Zadeh
8. Pattern recognition
based on training
data,Classification
supervised by
instructor.
Unsupervised machine
learning is also used
where the machine
learns from the given
data by detecting
patterns.

9. Models based on human reasoning.
Closer to human thinking and biologically
inspired
Models can be
Linguistic
Comprehensible
Fast when computing
Effective in practice.
