Abstract
Event detection is a central component in numerous wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. In spite of this, the area of event description has not received enough attention. The majority of current event description approaches rely on using precise values to specify event thresholds. However, we believe that crisp values cannot adequately handle the often imprecise sensor readings. In this paper we demonstrate that using fuzzy values instead of crisp ones significantly improves the accuracy of event detection. We also show that our fuzzy logic approach provides higher detection precision than a couple of well established classification algorithms.
