Probability representations of fuzzy systems

1 Background of birth of fuzzy systems As is well-known, just considering the great uncertainties of many systems, Zadeh put forward the notion of fuzzy sets and advanced the idea of the fuzzy reasoning by means of fuzzy sets which could describe a system approximately[1]. Those systems that are constructed on the basis of fuzzy reasoning are called fuzzy systems in general[2―4]. The research on fuzzy systems has attracted broad attention[5―7]. For instance, universal ap- proximation proper…     

FICA: fuzzy imperialist competitive algorithm

Despite the success of the imperialist competitive algorithm （ICA） in solving optimization problems, it still suffers from frequently falling into local minima and low convergence speed. In this paper, a fuzzy version of this algorithm is proposed to address these issues. In contrast to the standard version of ICA, in the proposed algorithm, powerful countries are chosen as imperialists in each step;according to a fuzzy membership function, other countries become colonies of all the empires. In ab-sorption policy, based on the fuzzy membership function, colonies move toward the resulting vector of all imperialists. In this algorithm, no empire will be eliminated;instead, during the execution of the algorithm, empires move toward one point. Other steps of the algorithm are similar to the standard ICA. In experiments, the proposed algorithm has been used to solve the real world optimization problems presented for IEEE-CEC 2011 evolutionary algorithm competition. Results of experiments confirm the performance of the algorithm.     

T–S fuzzy model identification based on a novel fuzzy c-regression model clustering algorithm

This paper proposes a novel approach for identification of Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model, which is based on a new fuzzy c-regression model (FCRM) clustering algorithm. The clustering prototype in fuzzy space partition is hyper-plane, so FCRM clustering technique is more suitable to be applied in premise parameters identification of T–S fuzzy model. A new FCRM clustering algorithm (NFCRMA) is presented, which is deduced from the fuzzy clustering objective function of FCRM with Lagrange multiplier rule, possessing integrative and concise structure. The proposed approach consists mainly of two steps: premise parameter identification and consequent parameter identification. The NFCRMA is utilized to partition the input–output data and identify the premise parameters, which can discover the real structure of the training data; on the other hand, orthogonal least square is exploited to identify the consequent parameters. Finally, some examples are given to verify the validity of the proposed modeling approach, and the results show the new approach is very efficient and of high accuracy.     

A new metric for L–R fuzzy numbers and its application in fuzzy linear systems

In this paper, a metric based on modified Euclidean metric on interval numbers, for L–R fuzzy numbers with fixed $L(\cdot)$ and $R(\cdot)$ is introduced. Then, it is applied for solving L–R fuzzy linear system (L–R-FLS) with fuzzy right-hand side, so that L–R-FLS is transformed to the minimization problem. The solution of the mentioned non-linear programming problem is our favorite fuzzy number vector solution. Two constructive Algorithms are proposed in detail and the method is illustrated by solving several numerical examples.     

The complex fuzzy system forecasting model based on triangular fuzzy robust wavelet ν-support vector machine

This paper presents a new version of fuzzy wavelet support vector regression machine to forecast the nonlinear fuzzy system with multi-dimensional input variables. The input and output variables of the proposed model are described as triangular fuzzy numbers. Then by integrating the triangular fuzzy theory, wavelet analysis theory and ν-support vector regression machine, a polynomial slack variable is also designed, the triangular fuzzy robust wavelet ν-support vector regression machine (TFRWν-SVM) is proposed. To seek the optimal parameters of TFRWν-SVM, particle swarm optimization is also applied to optimize parameters of TFRWν-SVM. A forecasting method based on TFRWν-SVRM and PSO are put forward. The results of the application in sale system forecasts confirm the feasibility and the validity of the forecasting method. Compared with the traditional model, TFRWν-SVM method requires fewer samples and has better forecasting precision.     

FUAT – A fuzzy clustering analysis tool

As it is known, fuzzy clustering is a kind of soft clustering method and primarily based on idea of segmenting data by using membership degrees of cases which are computed for each cluster. However, most of the current fuzzy clustering modules packaged in both open source and commercial products have lack of enabling users to explore fuzzy clusters deeply and visually in terms of investigation of different relations among clusters. Furthermore, without a decision maker or an expert, it is hard to decide the number of clusters in fuzzy clustering studies. Therefore, in this study, a desktop software, namely FUAT, is developed to analyze, explore and visualize different aspects of obtained fuzzy clusters which are segmented by fuzzy c-means algorithm. Moreover, to obtain and inform possible natural cluster number, FUAT is equipped with Expectation Maximization algorithm.     

Reverse triple Ⅰ method of fuzzy reasoning

A theory of reverse triple I method with sustention degree is presented by using the implication operator R0 in every step of the fuzzy reasoning. Its computation formulas of supremum for fuzzy modus ponens and infimum for fuzzy modus tollens are given respectively. Moreover, through the generalization of this problem, the corresponding formulas of α-reverse triple I method with sustention degree are also obtained. In addition, the theory of reverse triple I method with restriction degree is proposed as well by using the operator R0, and the computation formulas of infimum for fuzzy modus ponens and supremum for fuzzy modus tollens are shown.     

How good are fuzzy If-Then classifiers?

This paper gives some known theoretical results about fuzzy rule-based classifiers and offers a few new ones. The ability of Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy classifiers to match exactly and to approximate classification boundaries is discussed. The lemma by Klawonn and Klement about the exact match of a classification boundary in R (2) is extended from monotonous to arbitrary functions. Equivalence between fuzzy rule-based and nonfuzzy classifiers (1-nn and Parzen) is outlined. We specify the conditions under which a class of fuzzy TSK classifiers turn into lookup tables. It is shown that if the rule base consists of all possible rules (all combinations of linguistic labels on the input features), the fuzzy TSK model is a lookup classifier with hyperbox cells, regardless of the type (shape) of the membership functions used. The question "why fuzzy?" is addressed in the light of these results.     

A fuzzy Lyapunov function approach to estimating the domain of attraction for continuous-time Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems

This paper deals with stability analysis and control design problems for continuous-time Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems. The first aim is to present less conservative linear matrix inequality (LMI) conditions to design controllers and assess the stability. The second relevant contribution is to present a new strategy to find an inner estimate of the domain of attraction (DA) via LMIs. The results are based on the fuzzy Lyapunov functions (FLFs) and non-parallel distributed compensation (non-PDC) approaches. Finally, examples illustrate the effectiveness and merits of the proposed methods.     

AQM router design for TCP network via input constrained fuzzy control of time-delay affine Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy models

In this article, Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy control theory is proposed as a key tool to design an effective active queue management (AQM) router for the transmission control protocol (TCP) networks. The probability control of packet marking in the TCP networks is characterised by an input constrained control problem in this article. By modelling the TCP network into a time-delay affine T–S fuzzy model, an input constrained fuzzy control methodology is developed in this article to serve the AQM router design. The proposed fuzzy control approach, which is developed based on the parallel distributed compensation technique, can provide smaller probability of dropping packets than previous AQM design schemes. Lastly, a numerical simulation is provided to illustrate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed design approach.     

Neuro-fuzzy system modeling based on automatic fuzzy clustering

A neuro-fuzzy system model based on automatic fuzzy dustering is proposed. A hybrid model identification algorithm is also developed to decide the model structure and model parameters. The algorithm mainly includes three parts：1） Automatic fuzzy C-means （AFCM）, which is applied to generate fuzzy rttles automatically, and then fix on the size of the neuro-fuzzy network, by which the complexity of system design is reducesd greatly at the price of the fitting capability; 2） R.ecursive least square estimation （RLSE）. It is used to update the parameters of Takagi-Sugeno model, which is employed to describe the behavior of the system;3） Gradient descent algorithm is also proposed for the fuzzy values according to the back propagation algorithm of neural network. Finally,modeling the dynamical equation of the two-link manipulator with the proposed approach is illustrated to validate the feasibility of the method.     

Is there a need for fuzzy logic?

“Is there a need for fuzzy logic?” is an issue which is associated with a long history of spirited discussions and debate. There are many misconceptions about fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is not fuzzy. Basically, fuzzy logic is a precise logic of imprecision and approximate reasoning. More specifically, fuzzy logic may be viewed as an attempt at formalization/mechanization of two remarkable human capabilities. First, the capability to converse, reason and make rational decisions in an environment of imprecision, uncertainty, incompleteness of information, conflicting information, partiality of truth and partiality of possibility - in short, in an environment of imperfect information. And second, the capability to perform a wide variety of physical and mental tasks without any measurements and any computations [L.A. Zadeh, From computing with numbers to computing with words - from manipulation of measurements to manipulation of perceptions, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems 45 (1999) 105-119; L.A. Zadeh, A new direction in AI - toward a computational theory of perceptions, AI Magazine 22 (1) (2001) 73-84]. In fact, one of the principal contributions of fuzzy logic - a contribution which is widely unrecognized - is its high power of precisiation.Fuzzy logic is much more than a logical system. It has many facets. The principal facets are: logical, fuzzy-set-theoretic, epistemic and relational. Most of the practical applications of fuzzy logic are associated with its relational facet.In this paper, fuzzy logic is viewed in a nonstandard perspective. In this perspective, the cornerstones of fuzzy logic - and its principal distinguishing features - are: graduation, granulation, precisiation and the concept of a generalized constraint.A concept which has a position of centrality in the nontraditional view of fuzzy logic is that of precisiation. Informally, precisiation is an operation which transforms an object, p, into an object, p^∗, which in some specified sense is defined more precisely than p. The object of precisiation and the result of precisiation are referred to as precisiend and precisiand, respectively. In fuzzy logic, a differentiation is made between two meanings of precision - precision of value, v-precision, and precision of meaning, m-precision. Furthermore, in the case of m-precisiation a differentiation is made between mh-precisiation, which is human-oriented (nonmathematical), and mm-precisiation, which is machine-oriented (mathematical). A dictionary definition is a form of mh-precisiation, with the definiens and definiendum playing the roles of precisiend and precisiand, respectively. Cointension is a qualitative measure of the proximity of meanings of the precisiend and precisiand. A precisiand is cointensive if its meaning is close to the meaning of the precisiend.A concept which plays a key role in the nontraditional view of fuzzy logic is that of a generalized constraint. If X is a variable then a generalized constraint on X, GC(X), is expressed as X isr R, where R is the constraining relation and r is an indexical variable which defines the modality of the constraint, that is, its semantics. The primary constraints are: possibilistic, (r = blank), probabilistic (r = p) and veristic (r = v). The standard constraints are: bivalent possibilistic, probabilistic and bivalent veristic. In large measure, science is based on standard constraints.Generalized constraints may be combined, qualified, projected, propagated and counterpropagated. The set of all generalized constraints, together with the rules which govern generation of generalized constraints, is referred to as the generalized constraint language, GCL. The standard constraint language, SCL, is a subset of GCL.In fuzzy logic, propositions, predicates and other semantic entities are precisiated through translation into GCL. Equivalently, a semantic entity, p, may be precisiated by representing its meaning as a generalized constraint.By construction, fuzzy logic has a much higher level of generality than bivalent logic. It is the generality of fuzzy logic that underlies much of what fuzzy logic has to offer. Among the important contributions of fuzzy logic are the following:

1.

FL-generalization. Any bivalent-logic-based theory, T, may be FL-generalized, and hence upgraded, through addition to T of concepts and techniques drawn from fuzzy logic. Examples: fuzzy control, fuzzy linear programming, fuzzy probability theory and fuzzy topology.

2.

Linguistic variables and fuzzy if-then rules. The formalism of linguistic variables and fuzzy if-then rules is, in effect, a powerful modeling language which is widely used in applications of fuzzy logic. Basically, the formalism serves as a means of summarization and information compression through the use of granulation.

3.

Cointensive precisiation. Fuzzy logic has a high power of cointensive precisiation. This power is needed for a formulation of cointensive definitions of scientific concepts and cointensive formalization of human-centric fields such as economics, linguistics, law, conflict resolution, psychology and medicine.

4.

NL-Computation (computing with words). Fuzzy logic serves as a basis for NL-Computation, that is, computation with information described in natural language. NL-Computation is of direct relevance to mechanization of natural language understanding and computation with imprecise probabilities. More generally, NL-Computation is needed for dealing with second-order uncertainty, that is, uncertainty about uncertainty, or uncertainty² for short.

In summary, progression from bivalent logic to fuzzy logic is a significant positive step in the evolution of science. In large measure, the real-world is a fuzzy world. To deal with fuzzy reality what is needed is fuzzy logic. In coming years, fuzzy logic is likely to grow in visibility, importance and acceptance.

Decomposed fuzzy proportional–integral–derivative controllers

In this paper, several types of decomposed proportional–integral–derivative fuzzy logic controllers (PID FLCs) are tested and compared. An important feature of decomposed PID FLCs are their simple structures. In its simplest version, the decomposed PID FLC uses three one-input one-output inferences with three separate rule bases. Behaviours of proportional, integral and derivative PID FLC parts are defined with simple rules in proportional rule base, integral rule base and derivative rule base. The proposed decomposed PID FLC has been compared with several PID FLCs structures. All PID FLCs have been realised by the same hardware and software tools and have been applied as a real-time controller to a simple magnetic suspension system.

Image restoration techniques based on fuzzy neural networks

By establishing some suitable partitions of input and output spaces, a novel fuzzy neural network (FNN) which is called selection type FNN is developed. Such a system is a multilayer feedforward neural network, which can be a universal approximator with maximum norm. Based on a family of fuzzy inference rules that are of real senses, a simple and useful inference type FNN is constructed. As a result, the fusion of selection type FNN and inference type FNN results in a novel filter-FNN filter. It is simple in structure. And also it is convenient to design the learning algorithm for structural parameters. Further, FNN filter can efficiently suppress impulse noise superimposed on image and preserve fine image structure, simultaneously. Some examples are simulated to confirm the advantages of FNN filter over other filters, such as median filter and adaptive weighted fuzzy mean (AWFM) filter and so on, in suppression of noises and preservation of image structure.     

State feedback control of interval type-2 Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems via interval type-2 regional switching fuzzy controllers

The interval type-2 Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems have been proposed to handle nonlinear systems subject to parameter uncertainties. In this paper, a new type of state feedback controller, namely, interval type-2 regional switching fuzzy controller, is proposed to conceive less-conservative stabilisation conditions, which is switched by basing on the values of system states. To further reduce the conservativeness in the stability analysis, the information of lower and upper membership functions is also considered. Stability conditions for the interval type-2 fuzzy closed-loop systems are presented in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
