State reduction of fuzzy automata has been studied by many authors. All of them have dealt with classical fuzzy automata over the Gödel structure and reduction has been done using crisp equivalence relations. In [2, 3, 7] we have made several innovations. We have studied fuzzy automata over a more general structure of truth values, over a complete residuated lattice, we have shown that better r...

in this paper, a new structure possessing the advantages of low-power consumption, less hardware and high-speed is proposed for fuzzy controller. the maximum output delay for general fuzzy logic controllers (flc) is about 86 ns corresponding to 11.63 mflips (fuzzy logic inference per second) while this amount of the delay in the designed fuzzy controller becomes 52ns that corresponds to 19.23 m...

The paper proposes a novel fuzzy system structure to enhance the performance of fuzzy neural network systems. The structure of enhanced fuzzy system (EFS) is to decompose each fuzzy variable into fuzzy subsystems called component fuzzy systems to act as type 2 fuzzy, and each component fuzzy system is based on one traditional fuzzy set with one pair of symmetry fuzzy sets. In addition, in order...

The paper deals with devising the combination of fuzzy inference systems (FIS) and neural networks called the adaptive network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to determine the forming limit diagram (FLD). In this paper, FLDs are determined experimentally for two grades of low carbon steel sheets using out-of-plane (dome) formability test. The effect of different parameters such as work hardening...

Fuzzy set theory has been used to model systems that are hard to define precisely. As a methodology, fuzzy set theory incorporates imprecision and subjectivity into the model formulation and solution process. Fuzzy set theory represents an attractive tool to aid research in production management when the dynamics of the production environment limit the specification of model objectives, constra...

A fuzzy PID controllers are physically related to classical PID controller. The settings of classical controllers is based on deep common physical background. Fuzzy controller can embody better behaviour comparing with classical linear PID controller because of its non linear characteristics. Well tuned fuzzy controller can be also more stable and more robust for the time varying systems. On th...

This paper studies a renewal reward process with fuzzy random interarrival times and rewards under the >-independence associated with any continuous Archimedean t-norm >. The interarrival times and rewards of the renewal reward process are assumed to be positive fuzzy random variables whose fuzzy realizations are >-independent fuzzy variables. Under these conditions, some limit theorems in mean...

In this paper, the concept of a fuzzy graph structure is introduced based on the concept of graph structure given by E. Sampathkumar, in Bull. Kerala Math. Assoc., Vol 3, No.2 (2006 December), 65123. New concepts like ρi − edge, ρi − path, ρi − cycle, ρi − tree, ρi − forest, fuzzy ρi − cycle, fuzzy ρi − tree, fuzzy ρi − forest etc. are introduced. Some results are obtained. We continue the stud...
