What is Fuzzy Inference System (FIS)

Advanced Methodologies and Technologies in Business Operations and Management
The system which is a way of mapping an input space to an output space by using fuzzy set theory. FIS uses a collection of fuzzy membership functions and rules to generate an output.

Abstract
Risk is the likelihood of occurrence of any event that may obstruct the ability of organizations to achieve their strategic, financial, and operational goals. It is of profound importance for the business management to detect risks and determine appropriate actions in time. Risk assessment is a continuous and recursive process aimed at maximization of the use of opportunities while minimizing threats. There is a tendency in the field of risk assessment to prefer more quantitative methods to reduce unclarity. One such method is fuzzy logic. This chapter investigates fuzzy logic as an alternative to the classical methods that have been used for the purposes of risk assessment, which plays a crucial role in business action plans. Due to its similarity to the process of human reasoning and its success in cases of unclarity, fuzzy logic offers a number of advantages in this regard.
