A fuzzy learning algorithm to get the optimal fuzzy rules is presented in this paper. The algorithm introduces a reference model to generate a desired output and a performance index funtion instead of the performance index table. The performance index funtion is a cost function based on the error and error-rate between the reference and plant output. The cost function is minimized by a gradient method and the control input is also updated. In this case, the control rules which generate the desired response can be obtained by changing the portion of the error-rate in the cost funtion. In SISO(Single-Input Single- Output)plant, only by the learning delay, it is possible to experss the plant model and to get the desired control rules. In the long run, this algorithm gives us the good control rules with a minimal amount of prior informaiton about the environment.

This paper proposes robot localization using Fuzzy-Extended Kalman Filter algorithm of the mobile robots equipped with least sensors. In order to improve the accuracy of the localization, we usually add the sensors or equipment. However, it increases the simulation time and expenses. This paper solves this problem using only the odometer and ultrasonic sensors to get the localization with the Fuzzy-Extended Kalman Filter algorithm method. By inputting the robot's angular velocity, sensor data variation, and residual errors into the fuzzy algorithm, we get the sensor weight factor to decide the sensor's importance. The performance of the designed method shows by the simulation and Pioneer 3-DX mobile robot test in the indoor environment.

The development of fuzzy pan/tilt controller for remote handling in hostile environment is presented in this paper. In remote handling, control of the camera system is somewhat tedious and time consuming. Operators should do the two tasks of manipulating teleoperator and camera pan/tilt at the same time. By automating pan/tilt control, we expect operators could concentrate only on remote operation. When operators control camera pan/tilt they use simple linguistic rules such as "If the position of end effector on TV monitor is at the edge of the screen, control pan/tilt to display the end effector near the center of the screen." Such a rule is similar to fuzzy logic, so we used fuzzy logic controller to control camera pan/tilt. pan/tilt.

This paper suggests a speed control algorithm for the ICC(Intelligent Cruise Controller) system. The speed controller is designed using the fuzzy controller which shows the good performance in nonlinear system having the complex mathematical model. The fuzzy controller was equipped with the capability of a self-learning in real time in order to maintain the good performance of the speed controller in a time-varying environment the self-learning properties and the performance of the fuzzy controller are showed via computer simulation. The suggested fuzzy controller will be applied to the PRV-III which is our test vehicle.

Recently, the applications of unmanned system are steadily increasing. Unmanned automatic system is suitable for routine mission such as reconnaissance, environment monitoring, resource conservation and investigation. Especially, for the ocean environmental probe mission, many ocean engineers had scoped with the routine and even risky works. The unmanned surface vessel designed for sea probes can replace the periodic and routine missions such as water sampling, temperature and salinity measuring, etc. In this paper, an unmanned surface vessel was designed for ocean environmental probe missions. A classical and an adaptive fuzzy control system were designed and tested for the unmanned surface vessel. The design methodologies and performance of the surface vessel and fuzzy control algorithm were illustrated and verified with this unmanned vessel system designed for sea probes.

This paper presents an application of intelligent modeling method to manual control system with human operator. Human operator as a part of controller is difficult to be modeled because of changes in individual characteristics and operation environment. So in these situation, a fuzzy model developed relying on the expert's experiences or trial and error may not be acceptable. To supplement the fuzzy model block, a neural network based modeling error compensator is incorporated. The feasibility of the present fuzzy-neural modeling scheme has been investigated for the real human based target tracking system.

In this paper, we propose an automatic navigation system of ship using multivariable fuzzy control system in dynamic sea environment. The proposed multivariable fuzzy control system consists of two subsystems with three inputs and two outputs. The effectiveness of the proposed multivariable fuzzy control system is shown by simulation results.

A new interactive multiobjective decision making technique, which is called the fuzzy sequential proxy optimization technique, has been proposed. This technique is the revised version the sequential proxy optimization technique that the decision-maker's marginal rates of substitution is interpreted as type of L-R fuzzy numbers. It used to the square of normalized scalar product as the doptimalilry condition. However, this technique ignores the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement of marginal rates of substitution. Also, it have a shortcoming that can be only applied over three objective functions. In this paper, considering the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement, we presents an interactive fuzzy decision-making method on the basis of the decision-maker's MRS presented through the use of five types of membership functions including non-linear functions. FORTRAN programs that run in conversational mode are developed to implement man-machine interactive procedure.

This paper presents a hierarchical fuzzy motion planner for humanoid robots in 3D uneven environments. First, we define both motion primitives and locomotion primitives of humanoid robots. A high-level planner finds a global path from a global navigation map that is generated based on a combination of 2.5 dimensional maps of the workspace. We use a passage map, an obstacle map and a gradient map of obstacles to distinguish obstacles. A mid-level planner creates subgoals that help the robot efficiently cope with various obstacles using only a small set of locomotion primitives that are useful for stable navigation of the robot. We use a local obstacle map to find the subgoals along the global path. A low-level planner searches for an optimal sequence of locomotion primitives between subgoals by using fuzzy motion planning. We verify our approach on a virtual humanoid robot in a simulated environment. Simulation results show a reduction in planning time and the feasibility of the proposed method.

In Korea, researches for year-round leaf vegetables production system are in progress and the most of them are focused on environment control. Automation technologies for harvesting , transporting and grading need to be developed. This study was conducted to develop harvesting process automation system profitable to a competitive price. 1. Manipulator and end-effector are to be designed and fabricated , and fuzzy logic controller for controlling these are to be composed. 2. The entire system constructed is to be evaluated through a performance test. A robot system for harvesting a lettuce was developed. It was composed of a manipulator with 20DOF (degrees of freedom) an end-effector, a lettuce feeding conveyor , an air blower , a machine vision device, 6 photoelectric sensors and a fuzzy logic controller. A fuzzy logic control was applied to determined appropriate grip force on lettuce. Leaf area index and height index were used as input parameters, and voltage was used as output parameter for the fuzzy logic controller . Success rate of the lettuce harvesting system was 93.06% , and average harvesting time was about 5 seconds per lettuce.
