There is a common perception that snowflakes are 6-sided and a common quip that "no two snowflakes are alike". The 6-fold symmetry suggests that the growth is deterministic, while the differences suggest the growth is so sensitive to conditions that remarkable variety appears. We investigate fuzzy automata that give a great diversity of growth patterns, have sensitivity to background conditions...

In order to improve the effect of remote video monitoring system, a new image mosaic technology based on fuzzy cellular automata corner detection is presented. Firstly, the edge feature points from two images are extracted by fuzzy cellular automata; secondly the corner feature points are extracted by corner detection method based on geometry feature of corner; thirdly, the corresponding featur...

This paper introduces a fuzzy cellular model of road traffic that was intended for on-line applications in traffic control. The presented model uses fuzzy sets theory to deal with uncertainty of both input data and simulation results. Vehicles are modelled individually, thus various classes of them can be taken into consideration. In the proposed approach, all parameters of vehicles are describ...

Arti cial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Fuzzy Systems (FS) are high parallel structures that consist of a large number of elementary nonlinear units (called neurons) fully interconnected. In this article we present a hardware implementation of ANNs combined with a DSP resulting in a powerful system used in control applications. The NN processes most of the control tasks, while the DSP performs sig...

One of the common problems for fuzzy system implementation arises from the complications of the fuzzy inference process. Extra computations are required to deduce a consequence due to nature of fuzzy sets. Furthermore, considerable simulations need to be performed to verify system functions. In order to reduce the prototyping time, the fuzzy system is partitioned into hardware and software port...
