Genetic fuzzy rule selection is an effective approach to the design of accurate and interpretable fuzzy rule-based classifiers. It tries to minimize the complexity of fuzzy rule-based classifiers while maximizing their accuracy by selecting only a small number of fuzzy rules from a large number of candidate rules. One important issue in genetic fuzzy rule selection is the prescreening of candid...

In this paper, we consider the production possibility set with n production units such that the following four principles that governs: inclusion observations, conceivability, immensity and convexity. Our goal is to estimate the output of a same and new production unit with existing production possibility and amount of input is specified. So, initially we find the interval changes of each input...

Semiconductor wafer fabrication is a very complex manufacturing process. Many semiconductor processes are not very well understood. The control of semiconductor manufacturing processes is, thus, an active research area. Even though various algorithms have been developed for process control and optimization, the scope of application of these algorithms is not very well-characterized due to the c...

In this paper a fuzzy expert system for predicting the performance of a switched reluctance motor has been developed. The design vector consists of design parameters, and output performance variables are efficiency and torque ripple. An accurate analysis program based on Improved Magnetic Equivalent Circuit (IMEC) method has been used to generate the input-output data. These input-output data i...

In this paper a linearized Heffron-Philips model of a Single Machine Infinite Bus power system with a Fuzzy Logic Power System Stablizer (PSS) is developed. The designed fuzzy-based PSS adjusts two inputs by appropriately processing of the input angular speed and angular acceleration signal, and provides an efficient damping. The behavior of the SMIB system with & without PSS has been compared/...

Fuzzy rule-based edge detection using multiscale edge images is proposed. In this method, the edge image is obtained by fuzzy approximate reasoning from multiscale edge images which are obtained by derivative operators with various window sizes. The effect of utilizing multiscale edge images for edge detection is already known, but how to design the rules for deciding edges from multiscale edge...

Fuzzy rule-based systems have been very popular in many engineering applications. In mineral engineering, fuzzy rules are normally constructed using some fuzzy rule extraction techniques to establish the determination model in predicting the d50c of hydrocyclones. However, when generating fuzzy rules from the available information, it may result in a sparse fuzzy rule base. The use of more than...

In this paper, we visualize the behavior of a futures trading agent by using fuzzy if-then rules. The main aim of this paper is to graphically interpret how trading agents make decisions such as to buy or to sell a futures stock. Fuzzy ifthen rules are used for this aim because their antecedent part specifies the features of time series. The procedure for visualizing the behavior of trading age...

In this document we carry out a comparative analysis of the application of Fuzzy Logic Controllers (hereinafter FLCs), Fuzzy Temporal Rules-Based Controllers (hereinafter FTRCs), Temporal Fuzzy Logic Controllers (hereinafter TFLCs) and Faded Temporal fuzzy Logic Controllers (hereinafter FTFLCs), to improve the adaptive distributed routing. To obtain a good knowledge base the controllers were ev...
