Membership Functions
The fuzzy membership function is the graphical way of visualizing the degree
of membership of any value in a given fuzzy set. In the graph, X-axis
represents the universe of discourse and the Y-axis represents the degree of
membership in the range [0, 1]
Fuzzy membership function is used to convert the crisp input provided to the
fuzzy inference system. Fuzzy logic itself is not fuzzy, rather it deals with the
fuzziness in the data. And this fuzziness in the data is best described by the
fuzzy membership function.
And if the input x is less than a or greater than c, then it does not
belong to the fuzzy set at all, and its membership value will be 0
μ(x) = 0, x < a or x > c
Membership Functions
Thus, x = 8 will be mapped to a fuzzy value of 0.5 using the given triangle
fuzzy membership function.

Here, “c" is the center of the curve, and "σ" (sigma) is the spread or standard
deviation. A larger value of σ results in a wider curve, and a smaller value of
σ results in a narrower curve.
The spread value can also depend on the data distribution. If you
have data that is highly concentrated around a central point, a
smaller spread may be appropriate. If the data is more spread out,
a larger spread may be needed to capture the variation.
Membership Functions
Gaussian membership function:
A Gaussian MF is specified by two
parameters {m, σ} and can be defined
as:
There isn't a specific "height" of the curve at which you decide the
spread value; instead, you typically make this decision based on the
characteristics of your problem and the nature of the data.
It is controlled by parameters a and c. Where a controls the slope at the crossover point x
=c
Sigmoid (x; 1, -5) or sigmoid (x;1,5) Open Right because slope a is positive
Sigmoid (x; -1, 5) Open Left because slope a is negative
‘a’ controls the slope at crossover points
Membership Functions
Sigmoid Membership function:
Sigmoid functions are widely used in classification tasks in machine learning.
Specifically, it is used in logistic regression and neural networks, where it
suppresses the input and maps it between 0 and 1.
For Universe X = {20, 30, 40}, If A = {(20, 0), (30, 0.5), (40, 1)}
then crossover(A) = {30} which is a crisp set
