چکیده

This paper aims in the design of an intelligent Fuzzy Inference System that evaluates risk due to natural disasters. Though its basic framework can be easily adjusted to perform in any type of natural hazard, it has been specifically designed to be applied in the case of forest fire risk in the area of the Greek terrain. Its purpose is to create a descending list of the areas under study, according to their degree of risk. This will provide important aid towards the task of distributing properly fire fighting resources. It is designed and implemented in Matlab’s integrated Fuzzy Logic Toolbox. It estimates two basic kinds of risk indices, namely the man caused risk and the natural one. The fuzzy membership functions used in this project are the Triangular and the Semi-Triangular.

A Fuzzy Inference System Using Gaussian Distribution Curves for Forest Fire Risk Estimation

This paper describes the development of a fuzzy inference system under the MATLAB platform. The system uses three distinct Gaussian distribution fuzzy membership functions in order to estimate the partial and the overall risk indices due to wild fires in the southern part of Greece. The behavior of each curve has been investigated in order to determine which one fits better for the specific pro...

Fuzzy Inference System Approach in Deterministic Seismic Hazard, Case Study: Qom Area, Iran

Seismic hazard assessment like many other issues in seismology is a complicated problem, which is due to a variety of parameters affecting the occurrence of an earthquake. Uncertainty, which is a result of vagueness and incompleteness of the data, should be considered in a rational way. Using fuzzy method makes it possible to allow for uncertainties to be considered. Fuzzy inference system,...
