Fuzzy Logic in R By Jeff Heaton
R
is a programming language designed for statistical computing. R is widely used in scientific, actuarial and data science computing. The greatest strength of the R programming language is the many third party packages contributed by R’s user community. In this article, I will introduce you to fuzzy logic programming in R. This article assumes that the reader already has knowledge of fuzzy logic. If you need a review of fuzzy logic please read “Warm and Fuzzy … And Real!” by Dave Snell. It is also in this issue.
your plots. I used the following range and granularity for this example.
There are several different R packages available for fuzzy logic programming. This article assumes that you are using the “sets” package. If “sets” is not already installed, it can be installed with the following command.
Linguistic variables allow the use of descriptive words such as “underweight” or “obese” to describe normally numeric variables. Underwriters use many different variables to assign a rating to a potential insured. For this example we will only consider the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) blood test, a hypertension class and body mass index (BMI). We will place this set of linguistic variables into a set named “variables.”
install.packages(“sets”) You only need to install the “sets” package once. After installation, R programs can make use of “sets” by invoking the following command. library(sets) If you get an error from the above command, then “sets” is not properly installed on your system. I will now show you how to set up a basic fuzzy system. This system will implement a very simplistic underwriting rating system. This will allow you to define linguistic variables about a potential insured. Fuzzy rules will be defined based on those linguistic variables. You will also be able to perform fuzzy inference and ultimately defuzzify to an underwriting rating. You must first define the range and granularity of your universe. The universe used for this example will be between 0 and 40, with a granularity of 0.1. The inputs for all of your variables must fit within this range. Additionally, the granularity will specify the accuracy of the fuzzy inferences. At a more superficial level, the range also defines the x-axis of
sets_options(“universe”, seq(from = 0, to = 40, by = 0.1)) If your individual variables use vastly different ranges, it may be useful to normalize the variables to more consistent ranges.
