Fuzzy Logic in Image Processing and Pattern Recognition
Madhurima Sen, Saswati Barman · Apple Academic Press eBooks · 2025
Fuzzy logic is a problem-solving tool and a mathematical framework that deals with the logical reasoning of approximation rather than precision. In the last few years, classical image processing has faced difficulty dealing with real-world images containing noise and distortions due to their vagueness and uncertainty. So, this chapter explores the recent developments in image processing and pattern recognition by applying fuzzy logic. Furthermore, the integration of fuzzy logic along with machine learning algorithms and deep learning algorithms is explored and reported as a significant development in the field of image classification for target identification and classification in defense, object detection, medical image analysis, scenario recognition in video surveillance, and many other fields of applications. Finally, it concludes with areas for further advancement and the future scope of interest for research and development.
