چکیده

This paper presents the first results from a research project devoted to the application of the fuzzy control based technology to the drying process of tobacco leaves, which the authors are carrying out in the province of Pinar del Rio (Cuba). The fuzzy controller here reported has been designed and implemented by means of a fuzzy rule base constructed from the knowledge of the expert curers taking part in the natural drying process. The preliminary results obtained are very promising. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Intelligent Tobacco Curing Control Based on Color Recognition

To reduce the labor cost and the workload required in the tobacco curing process, an intelligent tobacco curing control technique adopting color identification of the tobacco leaves is proposed. The HSI color space is used in color segmentation and the color recognition with fuzzy decision is used in the curing process. The curing controller can identify the curing stage by the color features o...

Visual Torch Position Control Using Fuzzy-Servoing Controller for Arc Welding Process

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy-servoing controller method for automatic welding. The proposed method uses a vision based arc tracking to find the initial points of the weld seam and to track them without a prior knowledge. Due to a serious melt down in the weld pool during the welding process, the method requires to control the welding torch in two directions, up-down and left-right directio...
