The paper deals with the aggregation of classification rules by means of fuzzy integrals, in particular with the fuzzy measures employed in that aggregation. It points out that the kinds of fuzzy measures commonly encountered in this context do not take into account the diversity of classification rules. As a remedy, a new kind of fuzzy measures is proposed, called similarity-aware measures, an...

This article is devoted to the design of a fuzzy-observer-based control for a class of nonlinear systems with bilinear terms. The class of systems considered is the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy bilinear model. A new procedure to design the observer-based fuzzy controller for this class of systems is proposed. The aim is to design the fuzzy controller and the fuzzy observer of the augmented system ...

An intelligent robot needs to be able to understand human emotions, and to understand and generate actions through cognitive systems that operate in a similar way to human cognition. In this chapter, we mainly focus on developing an online incremental learning system of emotions using Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Additionally, we present a general overview for understanding and generating mu...

Control systems for variable-speed wind turbines (WTs) are continuously evolving toward innovative and more efficient solutions. Among the various techniques, fuzzy logic is gaining reputation due to its simplicity and effectiveness. In this chapter, after a review of fuzzy logic based control applied to wind energy conversion systems, a sensorless peak power tracking control for maximum wind e...

In this paper, fault tolerant compensation for non-linear plants is addressed. Soft fault detection and isolation is performed for a partial sensor fault detection. New method is proposed that combine model predictive controllers with fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno models. An example is presented that illustrates the functionality of the proposed method. Keywords— Fault tolerant control, Fault detection a...

We establish the functional equivalence of a generalized class of Gaussian radial basis function (RBFs) networks and the full Takagi-Sugeno model (1983) of fuzzy inference. This generalizes an existing result which applies to the standard Gaussian RBF network and a restricted form of the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy system. The more general framework allows the removal of some of the restrictive conditi...

This paper presents the robust fuzzy fault tolerant control (FFTC) for nonlinear wind energy conversion systems (WECS) in the presence of bounded sensor faults and the state variable unavailable for measurement based on Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. Sufficient conditions are derived for robust stabilization in the sense of Lyapunov asymptotic stability and are formulated in the format of line...

This paper presents the fuzzy linear control design method for a class of stochastic nonlinear time-delay systems with state feedback. First, the Takagi and Sugeno fuzzy linear model is employed to approximate a nonlinear system. Next, based on the fuzzy linear model, a fuzzy linear controller is developed to stabilize the nonlinear system. The control law is obtained to ensure stochastical exp...
