A Fuzzy Logic Approach to Measure Underweight Among Kindergarten’s Kids

Nowadays, being underweight during childhood is equally risky as being overweight. Underweight children lead to decrement in their academic performance, a social problem as well as challenging attitudes. Underweight people are likely to be less fit and active, which would also increase their cardio...
