In this paper, the problem of determining the quality level, lead time for order delivery and price of a product produced by a manufacturer is considered. In this problem the demand for the product is influenced by all three decision variables: price, lead time and quality level. To formulate the demand function, a fuzzy rule base that estimates the demand value based on the three decision vari...

Over the last years fuzzy control has become a very popular and successful control paradigm. The basic idea of fuzzy control is to incorporate human expert knowledge. This expert knowledge is speciied in a rule based manner on a high and granular level of abstraction. By using vague predicates a fuzzy rule base neglects useless details and concentrates on important relations. Following L.A. Zad...

This paper presents a new boosting algorithm for genetic learning of fuzzy classification rules. The method is based on the iterative rule learning approach to fuzzy rule base system design. The fuzzy rule base is built in an incremental fashion, in that the evolutionary algorithm extracts one fuzzy classifier rule at a time. The boosting mechanism reduces the weight of those training instances...

Some difficulties emerging during the construction of fuzzy behaviour-based control structures are inherited from the type of the applied fuzzy reasoning. Classical fuzzy reasoning methods need a complete fuzzy rule base. In case of fetching fuzzy rules directly from expert knowledge e.g. for the behaviour coordination module, the way of building a complete rule base is not always straightforwa...

This paper addresses a robust fuzzy controller to damp low frequency oscillation following disturbances in power systems. In this research the fuzzy controller is used as a Power System Stabilizer (PSS) to improve the stability in power system. The rule base of the proposed PSS is optimized offline automatically by the improved Genetic Algorithm (GA). Usually in a rule base fuzzy control system...

In multi-objective evolutionary fuzzy systems, the process of tuning the membership functions plays an important role towards optimizing the systems accuracy. Although, the shape and position of the membership functions in the partition should not change too much with relation to the original partition, so that it does not lose its integrity. This paper presents and discusses multi-objective ev...

Abstract. This paper presents the synthesis and analysis of the enhanced predictive fuzzy Hammerstein model of the water tank system. Fuzzy Hammerstein model was compared with three other fuzzy models: the first was synthesized using Mamdani type rule base, the second – Takagi-Sugeno type rule base and the third – composed of Mamdani and Takagi-Sugeno rule bases. The synthesized model is invert...

Neuro-fuzzy classi cation systems make it possible to obtain a suitable fuzzy classi er by learning from data. Nevertheless, in some cases the derived rule base is hard to interpret. In this paper we discuss some approaches to improve the interpretability of neuro-fuzzy classi cation systems. We present modi ed learning strategies to derive fuzzy classi cation rules from data, and some methods ...

Some difficulties emerging during the construction of fuzzy rule bases are inherited from the type of the applied fuzzy reasoning. In fuzzy systems, when classical methods (e.g. the Compositional Rule of Inference) are applied, the completeness of the fuzzy rule base is required to generate meaningful output. This means, that the fuzzy rule base has to cover all possible inputs. The way of buil...
