Multiple Inputs and Multiple Outputs (MIMO) Fuzzy logic model is developed to predict the engine performance and emission characteristics of pongamia pinnata biodiesel with hydrogen injection. Engine performance and emission characteristics such as brake thermal efficiency (BTE), brake specific energy consumption (BSEC), hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) and nitrous oxides ($NO_X$) were considered. Experimental investigations were carried out by using four stroke single cylinder constant speed compression ignition engine with the rated power of 5.2 kW at variable load conditions. The performance and emission characteristics are measured using an Exhaust gas analyzer, smoke meter, piezoelectric pressure transducer and crank angle encoder for different fuel blends (Diesel, B10, B20 and B30) and engine load conditions. Fuzzy logic model uses triangular and trapezoidal membership function because of its higher predictive accuracy to predict the engine performance and emission characteristics. Computational results clearly demonstrate that, the proposed fuzzy model has produced fewer deviations and has exhibited higher predictive accuracy with acceptable determination correlation coefficients of 0.99136 to 1 with experimental values. The developed fuzzy logic model has produced good correlation between the fuzzy predicted and experimental values. So it is found to be useful for predicting the engine performance and emission characteristics with limited number of available data.

In context-aware computing environment, some context is characterized by a single event, but many other contexts are determined by a sequence of events which happen with some timing constraints. Therefore context inference could be conducted by monitoring the sequence of event occurrence along with checking their conformance with timing constraints. Some context could be described with fuzzy concepts instead of concrete concepts. Multiple entities may interact with a service system in the context-aware environments, and thus the context inference mechanism should be equipped to handle multiple entities in the same situation. This paper proposes a context inference model which is based on the so-called fuzzy colored timed Petri net. The model represents and handles the sequential occurrence of some events along with involving timing constraints, deals with the multiple entities using the colored Petri net model, and employs the concept of fuzzy tokens to manage the fuzzy concepts.

Recently we need to take various measures to prepare for extreme flood that occur due to climate change. It is important that establish flood forecasting system to prepare flood over non-structure measures. The objective of this study is to develop superior real-time flood forecasting model by comparing the Neuro-fuzzy model and the multiple linear regression model. The Neuro-fuzzy model and the multiple linear regression model are established using same input data and applied for various flood events in Nakdong basin. The results show that the Neuro-fuzzy model can carry out flood forecasting results more accurately than the multiple linear regression model. This study can contribute to the establishment of a high accuracy flood information system that secure lead time in Nakdong basin.

Accuracy in maneuvering target tracking using multiple models relies upon the suit-ability of each target motion model to be used. To construct multiple models, the interacting multiple model (IMM) algorithm and the adaptive IMM (AIMM) algorithm require predefined sub-models and predetermined acceleration intervals, respectively, in consideration of the properties of maneuvers. To solve these problems, this paper proposes the GA-based IMM method as an intelligent tracking method for a maneuvering target. In the proposed method, the acceleration input is regarded as an additive process noise, a sub-model is represented as a fuzzy system to compute the time-varying variance of the overall process noise, and, to optimize the employed fuzzy system, the genetic algorithm (GA) is utilized. The simulation results show that the proposed method has a better tracking performance than the AIMM algorithm.

In this paper, a new approach to modeling of nonlinear systems using fuzzy theory is presented. So as to handle a variety of nonlinearity and reflect the degree of confidence in the informations about system, we combine multiple model method with hierarchical prioritized structure. The mountain clustering technique is used in partition of system, and TSK rule structure is adopted to form the fuzzy rules. Back propagation algorithm is used for learning parameters in the rules. Computer simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. It is useful for the treatment fo the nonlinear system of which the quantitative math-approach is difficult.

An adaptive fuzzy system can efficiently classify subimages into four categories according to image activity level for image data compression. The system estimates fuzzy rules by clustering input-output data generated from a given adaptive transform image coding process. The system encodes different images without modification and reduces side information when encoding multiple images. In the second part, a fuzzy system estimates optimal bit maps for the four subimage classes in noisy channels assuming a Gauss-Markov image model. The fuzzy systems respectively estimate the sampled subimage classification and the bit-allocation processes without a mathematical model of how outputs depend on inputs and without rules articulated by experts.

The objective of this paper is to develop a fuzzy logic based decision-making system to detect low current faults using multiple detection algorithms. This fuzzy system utilizes a fuzzy expert model which executes an operation without complicated mathematical models. This fuzzy system decides the performance weights of the detection algorithms. The weights and the turnouts of the detection algorithms discriminate faults from normal events. This system can also be a generic group decision-making tool for other areas of power system protection.

In the study of control technique for a turbojet engine model, the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy logic controller has been designed based on the model identification by the well designed PI controlled system through T-S neuro-fuzzy inference system. To enhance this designed controller, those procedures are proposed that certainty factors are adopted to each rule of objective groups which are classified by the fuzzy C-Means algorithm and the satisfaction degrees are matched to meet the objectives. This proposed technique shows its feasibility by upgrading performances of the previously well-designed T-S fuzzy controller.

In this research a model for establishing a new, rational fee schedule for general surgical procedures in a national health insurance program is developed. A fuzzy multiple criteria decision-making (FMCDM) model is proposed. The relative values of eleven surgical procedures were obtained through an empirical study based on the FMCDM model. Consequently, a new fee schedule obtained from the FMCDM model. This new fee schedule is more convincing than previous schedule and more persuasive to the references for the policy setting.

In this paper, a new evolutionary scheme to design a TSK fuzzy model from relevant data is proposed. The identification of the antecedent rule parameters is performed via the evolutionary algorithm with the unique fitness function and the various evolutionary operators, while the identification of the consequent parameters is done using the least square method. The occurrence of the multiple overlapping membership functions, which is a typical feature of unconstrained optimization, is resolved with the help of the proposed fitness function. The proposed algorithm can generate a fuzzy model with transparent membership functions. Through simulations on various problems, the proposed algorithm found a TSK fuzzy model with better accuracy than those found in previous works with transparent partition of input space.
