Adaptive fuzzy systems are usefull universal function approximators. But they suffer from the curse of dimensionality. I.e. the number of parameters, which have to be tuned, increases drastically if the number of input variables increases. This has the effect that memory and computational demands increase also drastically, and more stringently fitting problems may occur if the number of trainin...

Study about fuzzy entropy and similarity measure on intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) were proposed, and analyzed. Unlike fuzzy set, IFSs contains uncertainty named hesistancy, which is contained in fuzzy membership function itself. Hence, designing fuzzy entropy is not easy because of ununified entropy definition. By considering different fuzzy entropy definitions, fuzzy entropy is designed and...

Logicians have, by and large, engaged in the convenient fiction that sentences of natural languages (at least declarative sentences) are either true or false or, at worst, lack a truth value, or have a third value often interpreted as 'nonsense'. And most contemporary linguists who have thought seriously about semantics, especially formal semantics, have largely shared this fiction, primarily f...

The paper describes a variable speed wind generation system where fuzzy logic principles are used for efficiency optimization and performance enhancement control. A squirrel cage induction generator feeds the power to a double-sided pulse width modulated converter system which pumps power to a utility grid or can supply to an autonomous system. The generation system has fuzzy logic control with...

Neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set is the generalization of neutrosophic set and the hesitant fuzzy set, which can easily express the uncertain, incomplete and inconsistent information in cognitive activity, and the VIKOR (from Serbian:VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) method is an effective decision making tool which can select the optimal alternative by the maximum ‘‘group ut...

Common uses of fuzzy logic control today are found in relatively simple applications in products. These applications only scratch the surface of the potential of fuzzy logic control in complex mechatronic systems. In order to demonstrate the utility of fuzzy logic in complex device control, a fuzzy logic fly-by-wire system has been developed for a model airplane. The model airplane is a complex...

Cloud computing provides a robust infrastructure that can facilitate computing power as a utility service. All the virtualized services are made available to end users in a pay-as-you-go basis. Serving user requests using distributed network of Virtualized Data Centers is a challenging task as response time increases significantly without a proper load balancing strategy. As the parameters invo...

The control and operation of electronic systems relies and depends on the availability of the power supply. Rechargeable batteries have been more pervasively used as the energy storage and power source for various electrical and electronic systems and devices, such as communication systems, electronic devices, renewable power systems, electric vehicles, etc. However, the rechargeable batteries ...

This chapter tries to answer the fundamental question of what main contributions of fuzzy clustering to the theory of cluster analysis from theoretical viewpoints. While fuzzy clustering is thought to be clearly useful by users of this technique, others think that the concept of fuzziness is not needed in clustering. Thus the usefulness of fuzzy clustering is not trivial. The discussion here is...

This paper introduces fuzzy clustering algorithms that can partition objects taking into account simultaneously their relational descriptions given by multiple dissimilarity matrices. The aim is to obtain a collaborative role of the different dissimilarity matrices to get a final consensus partition. These matrices can be obtained using different sets of variables and dissimilarity functions. T...
