Abstract

In this paper, a new inference strategy applicable to redundant or contradictory fuzzy rules is introduced. Both characteristics result mainly from a data-based generation of fuzzy systems where linguistic hedges are used to get an abstract description and where different rules’ premises are overlapping. It is shown, that common fuzzy operators fail in these cases and that the newly introduced switching fuzzy operators solve these problems.
