2. 3. Course description:
Background, Uncertainty and imprecision, Statistics and random processes,
Uncertainty in information, Fuzzy sets and membership, Chance versus ambiguity, Classical sets
operations on classical sets to functions, Fuzzy sets-fuzzy set operations, Properties of fuzzy sets.
Sets as points in hypercubes.
Optimization is the process of obtaining the best result under given circumstances. In
design, construction and maintenance of any engineering system, engineers have to take many
technological and managerial decisions at several stages. The ultimate goal of all such
decisions is either to minimize the effort required or to maximize the desired benefit. A
number of optimization methods have been developed for solving different types of optimization
problem
