cloud model theory

Cloud model theory is a framework used to understand and represent knowledge in a way that reflects how people think. It connects fuzzy logic (handling uncertainty and vagueness) with probability theory to create a model that captures the gradation of concepts. Instead of defining ideas in strict terms, cloud models symbolize them as "clouds" with varying density, representing different degrees of truth or relevance. This approach helps in areas like artificial intelligence, decision-making, and data analysis, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of complex information.
