A fuzzy logic approach for reasoning under uncertainty and vagueness - a matchmaking case study

Abstract

Matchmaking problems have been studied extensively in literature. Today's World Wide Web provides us with the ability to have access to a vast amount of data. The manual matchmaking cannot be considered a feasible solution and automatic methods by machines have been evolved. The matchmaking task is always based on a set of criteria, but these criteria may not have a well-defined meaning. In this paper, a matchmaking method of web data based on fuzzy criteria is outlined.
