TL;DR. A set where elements can have a degree of membership between 0 and 1, unlike traditional binary sets.
Technical Definition
A set where elements can have a degree of membership between 0 and 1, unlike traditional binary sets.
How it works
Fuzzy sets generalize traditional sets by allowing elements to have a partial membership, represented by a value between 0 and 1. This enables the representation of vagueness and uncertainty, forming a core component of fuzzy logic systems.
