چکیده

The purpose of this paper is to present a general view of the current applications of fuzzy logic in medicine and bioinformatics. We particularly review the medical literature using fuzzy logic. We then recall the geometrical interpretation of fuzzy sets as points in a fuzzy hypercube and present two concrete illustrations in medicine (drug addictions) and in bioinformatics (comparison of genomes).

Small, fuzzy and interpretable gene expression based classifiers

MOTIVATION Interpretation of classification models derived from gene-expression data is usually not simple, yet it is an important aspect in the analytical process. We investigate the performance of small rule-based classifiers based on fuzzy logic in five datasets that are different in size, laboratory origin and biomedical domain. RESULTS The classifiers resulted in rules that can be readil...

Biological Sequence Matching using Boolean algebra vs. Fuzzy Logic

Biological sequence alignment is one of the crucial tasks of computational bioinformatics, and provides base for other tasks of bioinformatics. In this paper, we discuss two different approaches to sequence matching – Boolean algebra and fuzzy logic. First method is a two-valued logic whereas the second is a multi-valued logic. Both the methods perform sequence matching by direct comparison met...
