in recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. the synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. a particular evolutionary algorithm (ea) is differential evolution (de). as for any ea, de algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. in this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of de ...

Welcome to the Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems’s special issue for “FUZZYSS’2009: 1st International Fuzzy Systems Symposium”. Since its introduction by Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh fuzzy logic has found numerous applications in many diverse areas. Scientific research related to fuzzy logic and its extensions is still an open and promising active research area. There is still a very long way to...

This paper presents hardware architecture for an Interval Type-2 fuzzy processor. The architecture is based on the use of two Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Systems (T1 FLS) and it suggests that the existing techniques for implementing T1 FLS can be employed for realizing Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Systems (T2 FLS). The paper also presents a survey of the various realizations for T1 FLS and summarizes them giving ...

In recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. The synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. A particular evolutionary algorithm (EA) is differential evolution (DE). As for any EA, DE algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. In this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of DE ...

Combining both kinds of fuzzy logic forms including fuzzy T-S model and adaptive fuzzy logic systems, this paper presents an adaptive control scheme for a class of nonlinear systems. Firstly, the fuzzy T-S model is used to approximate the nonlinear systems, and the fuzzy control law of the fuzzy model is derived by the linear matrix inequality. Secondly, the adaptive fuzzy logic systems are con...

This paper presents the development and design of a graphical user interface and a command line programming toolbox for construction, edition and observation of Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems. The Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic System Toolbox (IT2FLS), is an environment for interval type-2 fuzzy logic inference system development. Tools that cover the different phases of the fuzzy system ...
