Study Notes
Difference Between Hard and Soft Computing
-
Hard Computing:
- Based on mathematical models
- Approximations are not accepted
- Exact solutions are preferred
- Computation is rigid
- Learning is not present
- Examples: Traditional Computing
-
Soft Computing:
- Based on probabilistic models
- Approximations are acceptable
- Errors may be allowed
- Computation is flexible
- Learning is present
- Examples: Neural Networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms.
- Includes Parallel and Sequential computations
Approaches
-
Hard Computing:
- Exact solutions (Approximations are not acceptable)
- Uses mathematical models for solutions
- Computation is rigid, requiring precise inputs/outputs
-
Soft Computing:
- More flexible, accepts approximations
- Allows for errors in computation
- Computation is probabilistic/ approximate
