Interpretability of linguistic variables: a formal account

Ulrich Bodenhofer, Peter Bauer (2005)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This contribution is concerned with the interpretability of fuzzy rule-based systems. While this property is widely considered to be a crucial one in fuzzy rule-based modeling, a more detailed formal investigation of what “interpretability” actually means is not available. So far, interpretability has most often been associated with rather heuristic assumptions about shape and mutual overlapping of fuzzy membership functions. In this paper, we attempt to approach this problem from a...

On granular derivatives and the solution of a granular initial value problem

Ildar Batyrshin (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Perceptions about function changes are represented by rules like “If X is SMALL then Y is QUICKLY INCREASING.” The consequent part of a rule describes a granule of directions of the function change when X is increasing on the fuzzy interval given in the antecedent part of the rule. Each rule defines a granular differential and a rule base defines a granular derivative. A reconstruction of a fuzzy function given by the granular derivative and the initial value given by the rule is similar...

Decomposition of the fuzzy inference system for implementation in the FPGA structure

Bernard Wyrwoł, Edward Hrynkiewicz (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The paper presents the design and implementation of a digital rule-relational fuzzy logic controller. Classical and decomposed logical structures of fuzzy systems are discussed. The second allows a decrease in the hardware cost of the fuzzy system and in the computing time of the final result (fuzzy or crisp), especially when referring to relational systems. The physical architecture consists of IP modules implemented in an FPGA structure. The modules can be inserted into or removed...

Fuzzy max-min classifiers decide locally on the basis of two attributes.

Birka von Schmidt, Frank Klawonn (1999)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Fuzzy classification systems differ from fuzzy controllers in the form of their outputs. For classification problems a decision between a finite number of discrete classes has to be made, whereas in fuzzy control the output domain is usually continuous, i.e. a real interval. In this paper we consider fuzzy classification systems using the max-min inference scheme and classifying an unknown datum on the basis of maximum matching, i.e. assigning it to the class appearing in the consequent...

Systolic architectures for fuzzy processing and their simulation.

Luis de Salvador, Marcos García, Julio Gutiérrez (1994)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

This paper details the study of systolic architectures for fuzzy rules processing made at the Hardware and Advanced Control Laboratory - INTA. The theoretical basis of these architectures is described and analysed. Likewise, the resultant schematics are simulated using a hardware description language (VHDL) with standard cells from ES2. This gives us a very accurate assessment of their real performance. In this way we can detect the inherent shortcomings in this class of systems and...

A context-based approach to linguistic hedges

Martine De Cock, Etienne Kerre (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We present a framework of L-fuzzy modifiers for L being a complete lattice. They are used to model linguistic hedges that act on linguistic terms represented by L-fuzzy sets. In the modelling process the context is taken into account by means of L-fuzzy relations, endowing the L-fuzzy modifiers with a clear inherent semantics. To our knowledge, these L-fuzzy modifiers are the first ones proposed that are suitable to perform this representation task for a lattice L different from the...
