More than 40 years after fuzzy logic control appeared as an effective tool to deal with
complex processes, the research on fuzzy control systems has constantly evolved. Mamdani …

Abstract In 1965 Lotfi A. Zadeh published" Fuzzy Sets", his pioneering and controversial
paper, that now reaches almost 100,000 citations. All Zadeh's papers were cited over …

Fuzzy control is a practical alternative for a variety of challenging control applications since it
provides a convenient method for constructing nonlinear controllers via the use of heuristic …

Fundamental and advanced developments in neuro-fuzzy synergisms for modeling and
control are reviewed. The essential part of neuro-fuzzy synergisms comes from a common …

Fuzzy logic control was originally introduced and developed as a model free control design
approach. However, it unfortunately suffers from criticism of lacking of systematic stability …

This book explores how developing solutions with heuristic tools offers two major
advantages: shortened development time and more robust systems. It begins with an …

Fuzzy logic control (FLC) has proven to be a popular control methodology for many complex
systems in industry, and is often used with great success as an alternative to conventional …

Abstract The term Soft Computing (SC) represents the combination of emerging problem-
solving technologies such as Fuzzy Logic (FL), Probabilistic Reasoning (PR), Neural …

Automata are the prime example of general computational systems over discrete spaces.
The incorporation of fuzzy logic into automata theory resulted in fuzzy auotomata which can …

We discuss implicit and explicit knowledge representation mechanisms for evolutionary
algorithms (EAs). We also describe offline and online metaheuristics as examples of explicit …
