The fuzzy self-tuning PID controller is a PID controller with a fuzzy logic mechanism for tuning its gains on-line. In this structure, the proportional, integral and derivative gains are tuned on-line with respect to the change of the output of system under control. This paper deals with two types of fuzzy self-tuning PID controllers, rule-based fuzzy PID controller and learning fuzzy PID controller. As a medical application of fuzzy PID controller, the proposed controllers were implemented and evaluated in a laparoscopic surgery robot system. The proposed fuzzy PID structures maintain similar performance as conventional PID controller, and enhance the position tracking performance over wide range of varying input. For precise approximation, the fuzzy PID controller was realized using the linear reasoning method, a type of product-sum-gravity method. The proposed controllers were compared with conventional PID controller without fuzzy gain tuning and was proved to have better performance in the experiment.

We proposed a method to improve KCN's problems. Proposed method adjusts neighborhood and teaming rate by fuzzy logic system. The input of fuzzy logic system used a distance and a change rate of distance. The output was used by site of neighborhood and learning rate. The rule base of fuzzy logic system was taken by using KCN simulation results. We used Anderson's Iris data to illustrate this method, and simulation results showed effect of performance.

The merit of fuzzy rule based systems stems from their capability of encoding qualitative knowledge of experts into quantitative rules. Recent advancement in automatic tuning or self-organization of fuzzy rules from experimental data further enhances their power, allowing the integration of the top-down encoding of knowledge with the bottom-up learning of rules. In this paper, methods of self-organizing fuzzy rules and of performing defuzzification and inference is presented based on a multi-resolution radial basis function network. The network learns an arbitrary input-output mapping from sample distribution as the union of hyper-ellipsoidal clusters of various locations, sizes and shapes. The hyper-ellipsoidal clusters, representing fuzzy rules, are self-organized based of global competition in such a way as to ensute uniform mapping errors. The cooperative interpolation among the multiple clusters associated with a mapping allows the network to perform a bidirectional many-to-many mapping, representing a particular from of defuzzification. Finally, an inference engine is constructed for the network to search for an optimal chain of rules or situation transitions under the constraint of transition feasibilities imposed by the learned mapping. Applications of the proposed network to skill acquisition are shown.

Most of feedback shift controllers developed in the past have fixed control parameters tuned by experts using a trial and error method. Therefore, those controllers cannot satisfy the best control performance under various driving conditions. To improve the shift quality under various driving conditions, a new self-organizing controller(SOC) that has an optimal control performance through self-learning of driving conditions and driver's pattern is designed in this study. The proposed SOC algorithm for the shift controller uses simple descent method and has less calculation time than complex fuzzy relation, thus makes real-time control passible. PCSV (Pressure Control Solenoid Valve) control current is used as a control input, and turbine speed of the torque converter is used indirectly to monitor the transient torque as a feedback signal, which is more convenient to use and economic than the torque signal measured directoly by a torque sensor. The results of computer simulations show that an apparent reduction of shift-transient torque is obtained through the process of each run without initial fuzzy rules and a good control performance in the shift-transient torque is also obtained.

This paper presents a design technique of self-organizing fuzzy controller using a learning method of fuzzy inference rule by a gradient method for load frequency control of power system. The membership functions in antecedent part and in consequent part of fuzzy inference rules are tuned by the gradient method. The related simulation results show that the proposed fuzzy controller are more powerful than the conventional ones for reduction of undershoot and deviation of load frequency in steady-state, and for minimization of settling time.

This paper describes a neural network based fuzzy PID control scheme. The PID controller is being widely used in industrial applications. However, it is difficult to determine the appropriated PID gains in nonlinear systems and systems with long time delay and so on. In this paper, we re-analyzed the fuzzy controller as conventional PID controller structure, and proposed a neural network based self tuning fuzzy PID controller of which output gains were adjusted automatically. The tuning parameters of the proposed controller were determined on the basis of the conventional PID controller parameters tuning methods. Then they were adjusted by using proposed neural network learning algorithm. Proposed controller was simple in structure and computational burden was small so that on-line adaptation was easy to apply to. The experiment on the magnetic levitation system, which is known to be heavily nonlinear, showed the proposed controller's excellent performance.

This paper proposes a self-organizing fuzzy modeling which can create a new hyperplane-shaped cluster by applying multiple regression to input/output data with relatively large fuzzy entropy, add the new cluster to fuzzy rule base and adjust parameters of the fuzzy model in repetition. Tn the coarse tuning, weighted recursive least squared algorithm and fuzzy C-regression model clustering are used and in the fine tuning, gradient descent algorithm is used to adjust parameters of the fuzzy model precisely And learning rates are optimized by utilizing meiosis-genetic algorithm. To check the effectiveness and feasibility of the suggested algorithm, four representative examples for system identification are examined and the performance of the identified fuzzy model is demonstrated in comparison with that of the conventional fuzzy models.

This paper presents fuzzy rules to predict diagnosis of Wisconsin breast cancer using neural network with weighted fuzzy membership functions (NNWFM). NNWFM is capable of self-adapting weighted membership functions to enhance accuracy in prediction from the given clinical training data. n set of small, medium, and large weighted triangular membership functions in a hyperbox are used for representing n set of featured input. The membership functions are randomly distributed and weighted initially, and then their positions and weights are adjusted during learning. After learning, prediction rules are extracted directly from the enhanced bounded sums of n set of weighted fuzzy membership functions. Two number of prediction rules extracted from NNWFM outperforms to the current published results in number of rules and accuracy with 99.41%.

By introducing the notion of constraint-oriented fuzzy inference, we will show that it provides us ways of fuzzy control methods that has abilities of adaptation, learning and self-organization. The basic supporting techniques behind these abilities are“hard”processing by Artificial Intelligence or traditional computational framework and“soft”processing by Neural Network or Genetic Algorithm techniques. The reason that these techniques can be incorporated to fuzzy control systems is that the notion of“constraint”itself has two fundamental properties, that is, the“modularity”property due to its declarativeness and the“logicality”property due to its two-valuedness. From the former property, the modularity property, decomposing and integrating constraints can be done easily and efficiently, which enables us to carry out the above“soft”processing. From the latter property, the logicality property, Qualitative Reasoning and Instance Generalization by Symbolic Reasoning an be carried out, thus enabling the“hard”processing.
