It is known that the performance of a fuzzy controller is related with fuzzification method, inference rules, defuzzification method, and linguistic variables. Among these, generally, the linguistic variables and control rules are transfered to control engineers from an expert or experts of the controlled system and other parts are designed by control engineers. However, there may be some missed infirmations or uncertainties in the transfered data. The purpose of the paper is to propose an algorithm to tune the membership functions of initially given fuzzy sets To do so, a simple shape of the membership fuction is assumed for the fuzzy sets, and the relations between the shapes of the fuzzy sets and the performance of the control system is derived. According to the relations, the shape of the membership functions are modified during operation of the whole system. The proposed algorithm will be applied to two emample plants, type 1 and type 0 systems.

In this paper, we propose a novel threshold selection method based on statistical information on gray-levels of given images and interval-valued fuzzy sets. In the proposed threshold selection method, the interval-valued fuzzy set is used to represent more definitely the relationship between a pixel and its belonging region, that is, the object and the background. Also the statistical information on gray-level is used to determine the rules and partitions of interval-valued fuzzy sets. To show the validity of the proposed method, we compared the performance of the proposed with those of conventional methods such as Otsu's method, Huang and Wang's method applied to 5 test images with various types of histograms.

This study investigates the effectiveness of a hybrid approach using fuzzy sets that describe approximate phenomena of the real world. Compared to the other existing techniques, the approach handles inexact knowledge in common linguistic terms as human reasoning does it. Integration of fuzzy sets with case-based reasoning (CBR) is important in that it helps to develop a successful system far dealing with vague and incomplete knowledge which statistically uses membership value of fuzzy sets in CBR. The preliminary results show that the accuracy of the integrated fuzzy-CBR approach proposed for this study is higher that of conventional techniques. Our proposed approach is applied to corporate bond rating of Korean companies.

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of fuzzy r-pre-semiopen and r-pre-semiclosed sets. With them we define fuzzy r-pre-semiinterior and r-pre-semiclosure. We also introduce and investigate the properties of a fuzzy r-pre-semicontinuous map, a fuzzy r-pre-semiopen map and a fuzzy r-pre-semiclosed map. These concepts are generalizations of the Bai Shi-Zhongs fuzzy pre-semicontinuity.

In this paper, an Adaptive neuro-fuzzy Inference system(ANFIS) using fuzzy min-max network(FMMN) is proposed. Fuzzy min-max network classifier that utilizes fuzzy sets as pattern classes is described. Each fuzzy set is an aggregation of fuzzy set hyperboxes. Here, the proposed method transforms the hyperboxes into gaussian membership functions, where the transformed membership functions are inserted for generating fuzzy rules of ANFIS. Finally, we applied the proposed method to the classification problem of iris data and obtained a better performance than previous works.

In this paper, we apply the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets to theory of semigroups. We give some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy ideals and intuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideals, and characterize which is left [right] simple, left [right] duo and a semilattice of left [right] simple semigroups or another type of semigroups in terms of intuitionistic fuzzy ideals and intuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideals.

Soft sensor is an effective method to deal with the estimation of variables, which are difficult to measure because of the reasons of economy or technology. Fuzzy logic system can be used to develop the soft sensor model by infinite rules, but the fuzzy dividing of variable sets is a key problem to achieve an accurate fuzzy logic model, In this paper, we proposed a new method to develop soft sensor model based on fuzzy neural network. First, using a novel method to divide the variable fuzzy sets by the process input and output data. Second, developing the fuzzy logic model based on that fuzzy set dividing. After that, expressing the fuzzy system with a fuzzy neural network and getting the initial soft sensor model based FNN. Last, adjusting the relative parameters of soft sensor model by the BP learning method. The effectiveness of the method proposed and the preferable generalization ability of soft sensor model built are demonstrated by the simulation.

Interval-valued fuzzy sets were suggested for the first time by Gorzalczang(1983) and Turken(1986). Based on this, Wang and Li extended their operations on interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Recently, Hong(2002) generalized results of Wang and Li and extended to interval-valued fuzzy sets with Riemann integral. Using interval-valued Choquet integrals with respect to a fuzzy measure instead of Riemann integrals with respect to a classical measure, we studied some characterizations of interval-valued Choquet distance(2005). In this paper, we define Choquet distance measure for fuzzy number-valued fuzzy numbers and investigate some algebraic properties of them.

An approximate representation of discrete functions {f$_{i,j}\mid$｜i, j=-1, 0, 1, …, N+1}in two variables by a fuzzy system is described. We use the cubic B-splines as fuzzy sets for the input fuzzification and spike functions as the output fuzzy sets. The ordinal number of f$_{i,j}$ in the sorted list is taken to be the out put fuzzy set number in the (i, j) th entry of the fuzzy rule table. We show that the fuzzy system is an exact representation of the cubic spline function s(x, y)=$\sum_{N+1}^{{i,j}=-1}f_{i,j}B_i(x)B_j(y)$ and that the approximation error S(x, y)-f(x, y) is surprisingly O($h^2$) when f(x, y) is three times continuously differentiable. We prove that when f(x, y) is a gray scale image, then the fuzzy system is a smoothed representation of the image and the original image can be recovered exactly from its fuzzy system representation when it is a digitized image.e.

In general, the reliabilities of the fuzzy system are represented and analyzed by real numbers between zero and one, fuzzy numbers, intervals of confidence, interval-valued fuzzy sets, vague sets, etc. This paper addresses the method to analyze the reliability of the fuzzy system for the weighted components with the weights reflected on the importance of weighted components in an system. The reliabilities and the weights of the weighted components in a fuzzy numbers and considers the weights of the weighted components in a fuzzy system, therefore, its execution is faster and more flexible than the conventional methods.
