Abstract

Nowadays, Linguistic Modeling is considered to be one of the most important areas of application for Fuzzy Logic. It is accomplished by linguistic Fuzzy Rule-Based Systems, whose most interesting feature is the interpolative reasoning developed. This characteristic plays a key role in their high performance and is a consequence of the cooperation among the involved fuzzy rules.

A new approach that makes good use of this aspect inducing cooperation among rules is introduced in this chapter: the Cooperative Rules methodology. One of its interesting advantages is its flexibility allowing it to be used with different combinatorial search techniques. Thus, four specific metaheuristics are considered: simulated annealing, tabu search, genetic algorithms and ant colony optimization. Their good performance is shown when solving a real-world problem.
