Quadratic stability has enabled, mainly via the linear matrix inequality framework, the analysis and design of a nonlinear control system from the local matrices of the system’s Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model. It is well known, however, that there exist stable differential inclusions, hence T–S fuzzy models whose stability is unprovable by a globally quadratic Lyapunov function. At present, li...

Toric differential inclusions play a pivotal role in providing rigorous interpretation of the connection between weak reversibility and persistence mass-action systems polynomial dynamical systems. We introduce notion quasi-toric inclusions, which are strongly related to toric inclusions, but have much simpler geometric structure. show that every inclu...

in previous studies we first concentrated on utilizing crisp simulationto produce discrete event fuzzy systems simulations. then we extendedthis research to the simulation of continuous fuzzy systems models. in this paperwe continue our study of continuous fuzzy systems using crisp continuoussimulation. consider a crisp continuous system whose evolution depends ondifferential equations. such a ...

where [f̂(x,K)]α e [X0] α are the α−levels of the fuzzy subsets f̂(x,K) and X̃0, respectively. As in [1] we saw that for each t > 0, the attainable set obtained under the Hüllermeier’s interpretation for (2), or rather, through a family of differential inclusions of the type gives in (3) coincides with the solution obtained applying the principle extension of Zadeh in deterministic solution We wil...

A certain converse statement of the Filippov-Wažewski theorem is proved. This result extends to the case of time dependent differential inclusions a previous result of Joó and Tallos in [5] obtained for autonomous differential inclusions.

An ordinary differential equation x = f (t, x(t)) (ODE) uniquely assigns the time derivative x (t) = d dt x(t) as a function of t and x. A differential inclusion x ∈ F (t, x(t)), (DI) on the other hand, only requires that the derivative x be inside a given set F (t, x) ⊂ R n. Therefore, given an initial condition x(0) = ¯ x, one can usually find several solutions of (DI). f(x) x _ x _ x x F(x) ...

The notion of geometric homogeneity is extended for differential inclusions. This kind of homogeneity provides the most advanced coordinate-free framework for analysis and synthesis of nonlinear discontinuous systems. The main qualitative properties of continuous homogeneous systems are extended to the discontinuous setting: the equivalence of the global asymptotic stability and the existence o...

Fuzzy Description Logics (fuzzy DLs) have been proposed as a language to describe structured knowledge with vague concepts. A major theoretical and computational limitation so far is the inability to deal with General Concept Inclusions (GCIs), which is an important feature of classical DLs. In this paper, we address this issue and develop a calculus for fuzzy DLs with GCIs.
