Accuracy

A measure of a predictive model that reflects the proportionate number of times that the model is correct when applied to data.

Back Propagation

One of the most common learning algorithms for training neural networks.

Decision Trees

Fuzzy Logic

A system of logic based on the fuzzy set theory.

Fuzzy Set

A set of items whose degree of membership in the set may range from 0 to 1

Fuzzy system

A set of rules using fuzzy linguistic variables described by fuzzy sets and processed using fuzzy logic operations.

Nearest Neighbor
