Condition Monitoring,   Oil Analysis, Wear Behavior,   Fuzzy Rule Based System   Maintenance , as a support function, plays an important role in manufacturing companies and operational organizations. In this paper, fuzzy rules used to interpret linguistic variables for determination of priorities. Using this approach, such verbal expressions, which cannot be explicitly analyzed or statistic...

the paper analyses issues leading to errors in graphic object classifiers. thedistance measures suggested in literature and used as a basis in traditional, fuzzy, andneuro-fuzzy classifiers are found to be not suitable for classification of non-stylized orfuzzy objects in which the features of classes are much more difficult to recognize becauseof significant uncertainties in their location and...

The “fuzzy dot” (or fuzzy relation) representation of fuzzy rules in fuzzy rule based systems, in case of classical fuzzy reasoning methods (e.g. the Zadeh-MamdaniLarsen Compositional Rule of Inference (CRI) (Zadeh, 1973) (Mamdani, 1975) (Larsen, 1980) or the Takagi Sugeno fuzzy inference (Sugeno, 1985) (Takagi & Sugeno, 1985)), are assuming the completeness of the fuzzy rule base. If there are...

This work focuses on the formalization of a Fuzzy Cognitive Map based decision support system using fuzzy If-Then rules (extracted from data) accompanied with the available experts’ knowledge. The proposed approach is applied to build a Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM) grading tool, an advanced FCM-based model used for prediction. The FCM is a modeling methodology based on exploiting knowledge and exp...

A fuzzy rule-based system consists of fuzzy if-then rules such as “If x1 is small and x2 is small than y is large”. The problem with existing fuzzy rule-based systems is that the size of the rule-base (number of rules) increases exponentially with the increase of the number of fuzzy sets involved in the rules. This exponential increase in size of the rule-base increases the search time and henc...

extended abstract 1. introduction human life is highly dependent on the environment and the services that are provided by the environment. environmental quality is a set of properties and characteristics of the environment, either generalized or local, as they may also impinge on human beings and other organisms. it is a measure of the condition of an environment relative to the requirements of...

in this paper, the consequences of well-known characteristics of near-fault ground motions, forward directivity and fling step, on the seismic response control is investigated. an integrated fuzzy rule-based control strategy for building structures incorporated with semi active friction damping system with amplifying braces (fdsab) is developed. the membership functions and fuzzy rules of fuzzy...
