Step Fuzzy Numbers and Neural Networks in Defuzzification Functional Approximation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 422))

Abstract

Ordered fuzzy numbers as generalization of convex fuzzy numbers are defined together with four algebraic operations. For defuzzification operators, that play the main role when dealing with fuzzy controllers and fuzzy inference systems, new representation formulae are given. Step ordered fuzzy numbers are considered. Approximation method based on forward neural networks is presented for determining defuzzification functionals when training sets of data are given. Results of approximation are given.
