Malgré ses succès, il existe des défis associés à l'utilisation de la logique floue dans les systèmes d'IA [intelligence artificielle]. Un défi est la difficulté de concevoir et de régler des systèmes flous. Étant donné que la logique floue traite des informations imprécises, il peut être difficile de déterminer les fonctions d'appartenance et les règles floues appropriées pour un problème donné. De plus, les systèmes flous peuvent être coûteux en calcul, en particulier lorsqu'il s'agit de grands ensembles de données ou de processus complexes. 3, record 4, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20logique%20floue
