As a general model of rule-based systems, we propose a model for a fuzzy production system having chaining rules and an inference engine associated with the model. The concept of so-called 'fuzzy petri nets' is used to model the fuzzy production system and the inference engine is designed to be capable of handling inexact knowledge. The fuzzy logic is adopted to represent vagueness in the rules and the certainty factor is used to express uncertainty of each rules given by a human expert. Parallel, inference schemes are devised by transforming Fuzzy Petri nets to matrix formula. Futher, the inference engine mechanism under the Mamdani's implication method can be desceribed by a simple algebraic formula, which makes real time inference possible.

Type-2 퍼지 집합은 Type-1 퍼지 집합에서는 다루기 어려운 언어적인 불확실성을 더욱 효과적으로 다룰 수 있다. TSK 퍼지 로직 시스템(TSK Fuzzy Logic Systems; TSK FLS)은 Mamdani 모델과 함께 가장 널리 사용되는 FLS이다. 본 연구의 Interval Type-2 TSK FLS 모델은 전반부에서 Type-2 퍼지 집합을 이용하고 후반부는 계수가 상수인 1차식을 사용한다. 전반부의 파라미터는 오류역전파 방법(Back-propagation)을 통한 학습으로 결정되고, 후반부 파라미터(계수)들은 Least squre method(LSM)를 사용하여 결정된 값을 사용하여 모델을 구축한다. 본 논문에서는 Type-1 TSK FLS과 Type-2 TSK FLS의 성능을 가스로 공정 데이터를 적용하여 비교 분석한다. 또한 랜덤 화이트 가우시안 노이즈를 추가한 테스트 데이터를 사용하여 노이즈에 대한 성능을 분석한다.

In this paper, a new approach to modeling and control of nonlinear systems using fuzzy theory is presented. To express the various and complex behavior of nonlinear system, we combine multiple model method with hierachical prioritized structure. The mountain clustering technique is used in partitioning of system, and TSK rule structure is adopted to form the fuzzy rules. Also we soften the paradigm of Mamdani's inference mechanism by using Yager's S-OWA operators.

Fuzzy controllers have been successfully applied to many cases to which conventional control algorithms are difficult to be applied. Even though the representations and the processings of data and information in the fuzzy controller are quite different from those in other control algorithms, the information processing operation that it caries out is basically a function ∫: $A{\subset}R^n{\to}R^m$, from a bounded subset A of an n-dimensional Euclidean space to a bounded subset f[A] of an m-dimensional Euclidean space, where n and m are the number of measured states and the number of control inputs of the controlled system, respectively. Under the assumptions of Mamdani's direct reasoning method and C.O.G.(center of gravity) defuzzification method, the fuzzy controllers are proven to perform the mapping of any given functions f with appropriately defined fuzzy sets. The mapping capabilities of fuzzy controllers are analyzed in detail for two cases, ∫: $R^{1}{\to}R^{1}$ and g: $R^{2}{\to}R^{1}$. Also, it will be shown that the results can be extended to multiple dimensional cases.

Image enhancement is an emerging method for analyzing the images clearer for interpretation and analysis in the spatial domain. The goal of image enhancement is to serve an input image so that the resultant image is more suited to the particular application. In this paper, a novel method is proposed based on Mamdani fuzzy inference system (FIS) using multiple fuzzy membership functions. It is observed that the shape of membership function while converting the input image into the fuzzy domain is the essential important selection. Then, a set of fuzzy If-Then rule base in fuzzy domain gives the best result in image contrast enhancement. Based on a different combination of membership function shapes, a best predictive solution can be determined which can be suitable for different types of the input image as per application requirements. Our result analysis shows that the quality attributes such as PSNR, Index of Fuzziness (IOF) parameters give different performances with a selection of numbers and different sized membership function in the fuzzy domain. To get more insight, an optimization algorithm is proposed to identify the best combination of the fuzzy membership function for best image contrast enhancement.

In this paper, we present an obstacle avoidance control algorithm for mobile robots based on SFLC (single-input fuzzy logic controller) with an efficient fuzzy logic look-up table to replace the traditional complicated operation. This method achieves better performance than traditional methods in terms of efficiency. The output of a SFLC leads the robot to the target automatically although many obstacles on the path. Our experiments show that the robot has good performance in the view of path tracking and other efficiency.

This study introduces the supervised committee fuzzy model as a hybrid fuzzy model to predict compressive strength (CS) of geopolymers prepared from alumina-silica products. For this purpose, more than 50 experimental data that evaluated the effect of $Al_2O_3/SiO_2$, $Na_2O/Al_2O_3$, $Na_2O/H_2O$ and Na/[Na+K] on (CS) of geopolymers were collected from the literature. Then, three different Fuzzy Logic (FL) models (Sugeno fuzzy logic (SFL), Mamdani fuzzy logic (MFL), and Larsen fuzzy logic (LFL)) were adopted to overcome the inherent uncertainty of geochemical parameters and to predict CS. After validating the model, it was found that the SFL model is superior to MFL and LFL models, but each of the FL models has advantages to predict CS. Therefore, to achieve the optimal performance, the supervised committee fuzzy logic (SCFL) model was developed as a hybrid method to combine the benefits of individual FL models. The SCFL employs an artificial neural network (ANN) model to re-predict the CS of three FL model predictions. The results also show significant fitting improvement in comparison with individual FL models.

A chemical reaction occurring in CSTR (Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor) is significantly affected by the concentration, temperature, pressure, and reacting time of materials, and thus it has strong nonlinear and time-varying characteristics. Also, when an existing linear PID controller with fixed gain is used, the performance could deteriorate or could be unstable if the system parameters change due to the change in the operating point of CSTR. In this study, a technique for the design of a fuzzy PD plus I controller was proposed for the temperature control of a CSTR process. In the fuzzy PD plus I controller, a linear integral controller was added to a fuzzy PD controller in parallel, and the steady-state performance could be improved based on this. For the fuzzy membership function, a Gaussian type was used; for the fuzzy inference, the Max-Min method of Mamdani was used; and for the defuzzification, the center of gravity method was used. In addition, the saturation state of the actuator was also considered during controller design. The validity of the proposed method was examined by comparing the set-point tracking performance and the robustness to the parameter change with those of an adaptive controller and a nonlinear proportional-integral-differential controller.

This paper is aimed to develop an electrical fire detection system (EFDS) which can analyze the possibility of electrical fire for overcurrent, leakage current and arc signals of panel board in traditional market shop. The EFDS adopted fuzzy logic and precursory data for overcurrent, leakage current and arc signals to evaluate the possibility of electrical fire. The signals are obtained directly from panel board in traditional market shops and fuzzy membership function is obtained from experiment, simulation, expert's advice. The overcurrent data is acquired by thermal data of normal and abnormal states (partial disconnection) on the insulated electrical wire, in accordance with the increase of the current signal, The leakage current data is obtained under various environments. The arc signal is acquisited by waveforms of instantaneous value in time domain and frequency band in frequency domain. The Fuzzy algorithm for DB of EFDS consists of fuzzification, inference engine by Mamdani's method and defuzzification by center of gravity method. In order to verify the performance and reliability of EFDS, it was applied to Jeon-Ju traditional market shops (90 shops) in Korea. Results show that EFDS in this paper is useful in alarming the fire case, which will prevent severe damage to human beings and properties, and reduce the electrical fires in a vulnerable area of electrical disaster.

Background: Spontaneous combustion of coal is one of the factors which causes direct or indirect gas and dust explosion, mine fire, the release of toxic gases, loss of reserve, and loss of miners' life. To avoid these incidents, the prediction of spontaneous combustion is essential. The safety of miner's in the mining field can be assured if the prediction of a coal fire is carried out at an early stage. Method: Adularya Underground Coal Mine which is fully mechanized with longwall mining method was selected as a case study area. The data collected for 2017, by sensors from ten gas monitoring stations were used for the simulation and prediction of a coal fire. In this study, the fuzzy logic model is used because of the uncertainties, nonlinearity, and imprecise variables in the data. For coal fire prediction, CO, O₂, N₂, and temperature were used as input variables whereas fire intensity was considered as the output variable.The simulation of the model is carried out using the Mamdani inference system and run by the Fuzzy Logic Toolbox in MATLAB. Results: The results showed that the fuzzy logic system is more reliable in predicting fire intensity with respect to uncertainties and nonlinearities of the data. It also indicates that the 1409 and 610/2B gas station points have a greater chance of causing spontaneous combustion and therefore require a precautional measure. Conclusion: The fuzzy logic model shows higher probability in predicting fire intensity with the simultaneous application of many variables compared with Graham's index.
