In this paper, we propose, simulated and modelled, first time, a novel fuzzy inference processor capable of handling three types of membership functions together. To implement the proposed inference processor, a novel multi membership function (MMF) MAX-MIN calculator circuit, calculating the matching degree (MD) between three types of membership functions (MF): Gaussian, Trapezoid and Triangul...

The database of a rule-based systemmay contain imprecisionswhich appear in the description of the rules given by the expert. Because such an inference can not be made by the methods which use classical two valued logic or many valued logic, Zadeh in (Zadeh, 1975) and Mamdani in (Mamdani, 1977) suggested an inference rule called "compositional rule of inference". Using this inference rule, sever...

Defuzzification converts the final fuzzy output set of fuzzy controller and fuzzy inference systems to a significant crisp value. However, there are various mathematical methods for defuzzification, but there is not any certain systematic method for choosing the best strategy. In this paper, first we explain the structure of a fuzzy inference system and then after a short review of defuzzificat...

introduction determining the importance of environmental impacts is one of the main issues and concerns in the process of environmental impact assessment (eia) of projects. ecological impacts assessment is very complicated and requires estimates and anticipates of all environmental impacts and thus always associated with uncertainty. a major problem in assessment of ecological impacts is that t...

To provide timely and appropriate assistance, robots must have the capability of proactively understanding a user’s personal needs, the so-called human intention inference. In human–human interaction, humans have a natural and implicit way to infer others’ intentions by selecting correlated context features and interpreting these features based on their life experience. However, robots do not h...

The quantification and prediction of inter-agent dependency requirements is one of the main concerns in Agent Oriented Requirements Engineering. To evaluate exertion load of an agent within resource constraints, this work provides a comparative analysis of Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). ANN is widely known due to its capability of learning the...

supplier evaluation and selection is complex which caused by the dynamic and fuzzy environment. current mcdm methods do not consider the nature of the environment that can affect the process of evaluation and ranking. the aim of this study is to propose a dynamic fuzzy hybrid mcdm method for evaluation, ranking and selection. the proposed method employs fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fahp) f...

In this study, the road traffic congestion of Dehradun city is evaluated from traffic flow information using fuzzy techniques. Three different approaches namely Sugeno, Mamdani models which are manually tuned techniques, and an Adaptive Neuo-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) which an automated model decides the ranges and parameters of the membership functions using grid partition technique, based...
