Soft Computing is an emerging approach which parallels the remarkable ability of the human brain to reason and learn in an environment of uncertainty and imprecision. It is one of the most emerging consortiums of methodologies including artificial neural networks (ANNs), fuzzy logic (FL) etc. They provide tractable, robust and lower cost solutions to the complex and gigantic real world-problems with the help of functional approximations and learning paradigms. It can also handle linguistic uncertainties, vagueness and imprecision involved in real life problems with reduced mathematical...
