Fuzzy reasoning and fuzzy decision-making processes are carried out with multiple input, multiple rules and multiple decisions as the fuzzy processor. Known fuzzy reasoning algorithms such as Mamdani fuzzy reasoning, Sugeno fuzzy reasoning and Tsukamoto fuzzy reasoning are discussed and steps toward fuzzy logic controllers are given.
