  • By the exponential representation form (EF) for fuzzy logic, any fuzzy value a (in fuzzy valued logic or fuzzy linguistic valued logic) can be represented as Bc, where B is called the truth base and C the confidence exponent. This paper will propose the basic concepts of this form and discuss its interesting properties. By using a different truth base, the exponential form can be used to represent the positive and the negative logic in fuzzy valued logic as well as in fuzzy linguistic valued logic. Some Simple application examples of EF for approximate reasoning are also illustrated in this paper.

  • In the tube hydroforming process, a tube is placed into the die cavity and the ends of the tube are sealed by fixing the axial cylinder piston into the ends. Then the tube is pressurized with a hydraulic fluid and simultaneously the axial cylinders move to feed the material into the expansion zone. Therefore, the quantitative relationship between process parameters such as internal pressure and feeding amount and hydroformabillity, is hard to establish because of their high complexity and many unknown factors. In this study, the empirical and the quantitative relationship between process parameters and hydroformabillity are analyzed by fuzzy rules. Fuzzy expert system is an advanced expert system which uses fuzzy rule and approximate reasoning. Many process parameters are converted to the quantitative relationship by use of approximate reasoning of fuzzy expert system. The comparison between experimentally measured hydroformabillity from hydroforming experiments and the predicted values by fuzzy expert system shows a good agreement.

  • A number of studies for corporate bond rating classification problems have demonstrated that artificial intelligence approaches such as Case-based reasoning (CBR) can be alternative methodologies to statistical techniques. CBR is a problem solving technique in that the case specific knowledge of past experience is utilized to find a most similar solution to the new problems. To build a successful CBR system to deal with human information processing, the representation of knowledge of each attribute is an important key factor We propose a hybrid approach of using fuzzy sets that describe the approximate phenomena of the real world because it handles inexact knowledge represented by common linguistic terms in a similar way as human reasoning compared to the other existing techniques. Integration of fuzzy sets with CBR is important to develop effective methods for dealing with vague and incomplete knowledge to statistical represent using membership value of fuzzy sets in CBR.

  • Even though the recent construction safety disasters not only result in the loss inside construction sites but also become to a large public disasters, safety activities are managed in an irrational way and safety rules are ignored in the construction sites which leads to occur same type of disasters repeatedly. In this paper, a fuzzy set theoretic approach to risk analysis is proposed as an alternative to the techniques currently used in the general construction projects safety. Then the concept of risk evaluation using linguistic representation of the likelihood, exposure and consequences is introduced. A risk assessment model using approximate reasoning technique base on fuzzy logic is presented to drive fuzzy values of risk and numerical example for risk analysis is also presented to illustrate the results.

  • In this paper, we propose a backward reasoning algorithm which can be utilized in the fuzzy Petri-net representation representing fuzzy production rules. The fuzzy Petri-net representation can be used to model a approximate reasoning system and implement a fuzzy inference engine. The proposed algorithm, which uses the proper belief evaluation functions according to fuzzy concepts in antecedentes and consequents of fuzzy production rules, is more closer to human intuition and reasoning than other methods. This algorithm generates the backward reasoning path from the goal to the initial nodes and evaluates the belief value of the goal node using belief evaluation functions.

  • In this work, we proesent a bidirectional approximate reasoning method and fuzzy inference network for interval valued decision making systems. For this, we propose a new type of similarity measure between two fuzzy vectors based on the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator. Since the proposed similarity measure has a structure to give the extreme values by choosing a suitable weighting vector of the OWA operator, it can render an interval valued similarity value. From this property, we derive a bidirectional approximate reasoning method based on the similarity measure and show its fuzzy inference network implementation for the decision making systems requiring the interval valued decisions.

  • Fuzzy logic places a considerable burden on an inference engine for applications such as control or approximate reasoning. Various neural network architectures have been proposed to deal with the computational task, and yet, maintain flexibility in the desired traits of the final system. Recently, we introduced a trainable network architecture whose nodes implement weighted Yager additive hybrid operators for fuzzy logic inference in an approximate reasoning setting. In this paper we examine the utility of such networks for control situations. We show that they are capable of learning control functions which are piece-wise monotonic in each of the variables. The learning ability is demonstrated through an example.

  • A robust and reliable learning and reasoning mechanism is addressed based upon fuzzy set theory and fuzzy associative memories. The mechanism stores a priori an initial knowledge base via approximate learning and utilizes this information for decision-making systems via fuzzy inferencing. We called this fuzzy computer architecture a 'fuzzy hypercube' processing all the rules in one clock period in parallel. Fuzzy hypercubes can be applied to control of a class of complex and highly nonlinear systems which suffer from vagueness uncertainty. Moreover, evidential aspects of a fuzzy hypercube are treated to assess the degree of certainty or reliability together with parameter sensitivity.

  • This paper deals with the decision in vague knowledge, One method is a classic theory. That is to say, constraints and goals in the vague knowledge. Another method is the fuzzy catastrophe. If there exist two fuzzy variables, there may be a discontinuity which plays an important role in decision.
