Instructions to the candidates:-

1) Question Nos. 1 and 12 are compulsory. Out of the remaining attempt 2 questions from
Section I and 2 questions from Section II.

2) Answers to the two sections should be written in separate books.

3) Neat diagrams must be drawn wherever necessary.

4) Pigures to the right indicate full marks.

5) Use of logarithmic tables, slide rule, Mollier charts, electronic pocket calculator and
steam tables is allowed.

6) Assume suitable data, if necessary.

SECTION I

QI) Write notes on (any three) [18]

a) Applications of Soft Computing.

b) Hybrid systems.

c) Neuro-Fuzzy and Soft Computing characteristics.

d) Compare and contrast hard and soft computing.

OR

Q2) a) Define a fuzzy set and explain the concept of a fuzzy number. What is the significance of
fuzziness. [8]

b) Consider two fuzzy sets A and B find Complement, Union, Intersection, Difference,
and De Morgans laws: [8]

A = |0.8 0.4 0.6 0.1 0.31


=1 2 3 4 5 6 J

B = 10.3 0.8 0.6 0.8 021

=1 2 3 4 5 6 J

characteristics.
[8]

f0.2 0.5 0.71

Given a rule : IF x is A, THEN y is B, where A j 1 2 3 J and

B _f06 0.8 0.41

_l 5 7 9 J

Infer B for another rule: IF x is A, THEN y is B, where f0.5 0.9 0.31

A = j 1 2 3 J, using Mamdani Implication rule and max-min


composition.
[8]

OR

Describe the architecture of a Mamdani type Fuzzy Logic Controller and compare it with a
conventional PID controller. [8]

What are the principal design parameters of a Fuzzy Logic Controller? Explain with a suitable
example. [8]

What are the advantages of Fuzzy Logic Controller over that of a conventional
controller. [8]

Explain the Sugeno Fuzzy Inference Model with a suitable example. [8]

OR

Define the following terms with reference to fuzzy inference systems: [6]

i) Premise (Antecedent)

ii) Conclusion (Consequent)


iii) Rule base.

Given two
rules:
[IO]

RULE I : if height is TALL, then speed is HIGH

RULE 2 : if height is MEDIUM, then speed is MODERATE

The fuzzy sets for height (in feet) and speed (in m/s) are:

f0.5 0.8 11 f0.4 0.7 0.91

H = TALL = j - \, S = HIGH =

567J1 I 579 J

f0.6 0.7 0.61

H 2 = MEDIUM = j-^-^^ J, S2 = MODERATE f0.6 0.8 0.71

f0.5 0.9 0.81

For a given H = ABOVE AVERAGE = j ,, J,

Compute S = ABOVE NORMAL
