Intelligent control techniques are increasingly assuming vital roles in contemporary unmanned systems. While Boolean logic, probability theory, and fuzzy logic stand out as widely used reasoning methods for intelligent control, they do come with their own set of limitations. To address these constraints associated with existing reasoning methods, we introduce a novel inference system called Earthling Logic (EL) into the domain of intelligent control. Within the framework of EL, all events are treated as statements with varying degrees of truth, referred to as credibility or truth value, which accommodates both vagueness and randomness as specific attributes. We can establish the existence of this credibility under broad and general conditions. Furthermore, we have developed analytically simple and computationally efficient techniques for deducing the credibility of statements based on the credibility of their premises. To illustrate the practical applicability of EL, we propose the Earthling Logic Control framework for unmanned systems.
