This study presents a novel controller of magnetic levitation system by using new neuro-fuzzy structures which called flexible neuro-fuzzy systems. In this type of controller we use sliding mode control with neuro-fuzzy to eliminate the Jacobian of plant. At first, we control magnetic levitation system with Mamdanitype neuro-fuzzy systems and logical-type neuro-fuzzy systems separately and then...

A fuzzy logic controller with interval-valued inference mechanism is presented for the control of distributed parameter system (DPS). Interval-valued fuzzy set, a special case of type-2 fuzzy set, is innovatively designed to cope with the spatial information of distributed parameter systems. The proposed fuzzy logic controller is composed of six modules: fuzzifier, fuzzy composition, rules, inf...

In today’s world there is exponential increase in the use of air conditioning devices. The enhancement in utilization of such devices makes it essential for them to work with their full capability and efficiency. The fuzzy inference systems are best suited for the applications requiring easy interpretation, human reasoning, accurate decision making and control. The fuzzy inference systems resem...

Computing the output of fuzzy systems usually passes through three stages i.e. fuzzification, inference, and defuzzification. The computation of the output requires too many operations and considerable time. This apparently discourages the use of fuzzy systems in time-critical applications. In this paper, a new two-stage representation of fuzzy systems, which reduces the operations needed to co...

This report presents a generalized design strategy of intelligent robust control systems based on quantum/soft computing technologies that enhance robustness of fuzzy controllers by supplying its a selforganizing capability. It is demonstrated that fuzzy controllers prepared to maintain control objects in the prescribed conditions are often fail to control when such a conditions are dramaticall...

Fuzzy numbers in number theory are a foundation of fuzzy sets and fuzzy mathematics that extend the domain of numbers from those of real numbers to fuzzy numbers. Fuzzy arithmetic is a system of fuzzy operations on fuzzy numbers. A theory of fuzzy arithmetic is presented towards a fuzzy mathematical structure for fuzzy inference and cognitive computation. The mathematical models of fuzzy number...

Most of researches on image forensics have been mainly focused on detection of artifacts introduced by a single processing tool. They lead in the development of many specialized algorithms looking for one or more particular footprints under specific settings. Naturally, the performance of such algorithms are not perfect, and accordingly the provided output might be noisy, inaccurate and only pa...

Inference mechanisms and interpretations of fuzzy rule bases are studied together from the point of view of systems of fuzzy relation equations. A proper use of an inference mechanism connected to a fuzzy relation interpreting a fuzzy rule base is certified by keeping the fundamental interpolation condition. The paper aims at new solutions of systems of fuzzy relation equations which are motiva...
