one-third of the people with an age over twenty have some signs of degenerated discs. however, in most of the patients the mere presence of degenerative discs is not a problem leading to pain, neurological compression, or other symptoms. this paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid rule-based system to diagnose the abnormal degenerated discs where pain variables are represented by interv...

a novel technique is investigated for pid controller adaptation in order to control thetemperature of a liquid-phase reactor tank by using a heat exchanger system. as for nonlinearity,time delay problems and model uncertainties introduced by the heat exchanger, an interval type-2fuzzy system (it2fs) is implemented to enhance and improve the total control performance.moreover, the fuzzy inferenc...

Electro-hydraulic systems with regards to the their specific features and applications among other industrial systems including mechanical, electrical and pneumatic systems, have been widely taken into consideration by the scientists and researchers. Due to the fact that the electro-hydraulic system is inherently a nonlinear system, has some problems such as signals saturation, nonlinear effici...

in this paper we present a method for solving fuzzy linear systemsby two crisp linear systems. also necessary and sufficient conditions for existenceof solution are given. some numerical examples illustrate the efficiencyof the method.

In this paper an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part is presented. The capability of the proposed method (we named ANFIS2) to function approximation and dynamical system identification is shown. The ANFIS2 structure ...

anti-lock braking system (abs) is a nonlinear and time varying system including uncertainty, so it cannot be controlled by classic methods. intelligent methods such as fuzzy controller are used in this area extensively; however traditional fuzzy controller using simple type-1 fuzzy sets may not be robust enough to overcome uncertainties. for this reason an interval type-2 fuzzy controller is de...
