Abstract
In recent times, investigating data with Turiyam attributes and its analysis has been considered one of the crucial tasks. It provides a way to characterize fuzziness in attributes in four independent ways: the true region (t), false region ( f ), indeterminate region (i), and liberal region (l). Numerous algorithms have been suggested for applications of the Turiyam set as a graph, a Turiyam matrix and algebraic properties of a Turiyam matrix. It tries to use words to calculate whenever there’s a human consciousness. One suitable example is the voting system in a democratic country like India where people vote according to their conduit metaphor or they select NOTA. There are, however, several older four valued methods, such as those of Nagarjuna (Catuskoti) and Aristotle’s logic and Belnap’s logic. The author gives an example to compare the Turiyam logic with each of these approaches in this paper.
