non-binary logic

Definitions

A system of logic that allows for more than two truth values, such as true, false, and indeterminate.

A formal logical framework that rejects the law of excluded middle, permitting intermediate states between absolute truth and falsehood.

Examples

Unlike classical systems that rely on true or false values, fuzzy set theory utilizes non-binary logic to represent degrees of truth.

The researcher argued that complex decision-making processes in artificial intelligence often require a shift toward non-binary logic.

By incorporating non-binary logic into the programming model, the software was able to process nuanced data points more effectively.
