image segmentation is an essential issue in image description and classification. currently, in many real applications, segmentation is still mainly manual or strongly supervised by a human expert, which makes it irreproducible and deteriorating. moreover, there are many uncertainties and vagueness in images, which crisp clustering and even type-1 fuzzy clustering could not handle. hence, type-...

In this paper, we examine and compare De Morgan-, Kleene-, and Booleandisjunctive and conjunctive normal forms and consider their role in fuzzy settings. In particular, we describe normal forms and truth tables for classical fuzzy propositional logic and interval-valued fuzzy propositional logic that are completely analogous to those for Boolean propositional logic. Thus, determining logical eq...

Uncertainty is an inherent part in controllers for real world applications. In this paper we compare the performance differences between type-1 and interval type-2 fuzzy logic (IT2FLC) controllers, with five and three term membership functions. The controllers are used to control a PM DC motor in a closed loop real time system. The performance of system with each controller to a step is recorde...

the idea of this paper is designing an automatic fault detection system based on fuzzy logic, therefore two signals of pmsm in fault condition are analyzed for inter turn fault detection: current and torque. in this fault type there is some distortion in these signals, but it is not good enough to detecting with fuzzy logic solely, so with combination of wavelet transform and fcm a new method f...

Intelligent congestion control is vital in encoded video streaming of a clip or film, as network traffic volatility requires constant adjustment of the bit-rate. Equation-based solutions to congestion control are prone to fluctuations in the delivery rate and may respond only when packet loss has already occurred, while both fluctuations and packet loss affect the end-user’s perception of the d...

This study analyzes the absolute stability in P and PD type fuzzy logic control systems with both certain and uncertain linear plants. Stability analysis includes the reference input, actuator gain and interval plant parameters. For certain linear plants, the stability (i.e. the stable equilibriums of error) in P and PD types is analyzed with the Popov or linearization methods under various ref...

PRUF--an acronym for Possibilistie Relational Universal Fuzzy--is a meaning representation language for natural languages which departs from the conventional approaches to the theory of meaning in several important respects. First, a basic assumption underlying PRUF is that the imprecision that is intrinsic in natural languages is, for the most part, possibilistic rather than probabilistic in n...
