Fuzzylogic CS16 Start

1) The document introduces fundamentals of fuzzy logic, including that fuzzy systems and neural networks are part of soft computing technologies used to model complex nonlinear relationships. 2) Fuzzy systems and neural networks combine multiple simple functions, with fuzzy systems using membership functions and rules to model vagueness and allow gradual transitions between states. 3) Fuzzy sets allow for degrees of membership rather than crisp membership, avoiding issues like continuously jerking brakes around threshold values like speeds of 39-41 in the example.

Fundamentals of Fuzzy Logic

Introduction Fuzzy systems, Neural networks and Genetic Algorithms are a part of soft computing technologies Assume that the problems to be solved belong to a multidimensional input-output space or search space; for example a two input and one output space where the inputs and output are related with nonlinear function The objective is to find the best input that produces the required output Fuzzy systems and Neural networks model such complex nonlinearity by combining multiple simple functions Neural networks use sigmoid or other simple functions and synaptic weights Fuzzy systems use several rules and membership functions

Introduction to fuzzy logic Uncertainty is inherent in accessing information from large amount of data; for example words like near and slow in sentences like My house is near to the office, He drivels slowly

If we set slow as speeds <=20 and fast otherwise, then is 20.1 is fast?

Introduction to fuzzy logic contd..


Fuzzy logic deals with techniques to capture the essence of comprehension and embed it on the system Thus using fuzzy logic a gradual transition from slow to high speed is allowed Due to the comprehension, fuzzy logic provides higher intelligence quotient to machines

Crisp sets and Fuzzy sets


Crisp sets: In a crisp set, members belong to the group identified by the set or not slow = {s such that 0 <= s < 40} fast = {s such that 40 < s <70} 40.1 belongs to set fast, hence 40.1 is not slow Drawback of crisp sets: Suppose a physical system has to apply brakes if the speed of the vehicle is fast and release the brake if the speed is slow. If the speed is in the interval [39, 41], such a system would continuously keep jerking which is not desired

Fuzzy Sets

To reduce the complexity of comprehension vagueness is introduced in crisp sets Fuzzy set contains elements; each element signifies the degree or grade of membership to a fuzzy aspect Membership values denote the sense of belonging of a member of a crisp set to a fuzzy set

Example of a fuzzy set


Consider a crisp set A with elements representing ages of a set of people in years A = { 2, 4, 10, 15, 20, 30, 35, 40, 45, 60, 70} Classify the age in terms of six fuzzy variables namely: infant, child, adolescent, adult, young and old

Membership is different from probabilities Memberships do not necessarily add up to one

Features of Fuzzy Sets


1. A complex nonlinear input-output relation is represented as a combination of simple input-output relations 2. The simple input-output relation is described in each rule 3. The system output from one rule area to the next rule area gradually changes 4. Fuzzy logic systems are augmented with techniques that facilitate learning and adaptation to the environment; thus logic and fuzziness are separate in fuzzy systems

Features of Fuzzy Sets contd..


In Conventional two value logic based systems logic and fuzziness are not different fuzzy logic systems modify rules when logic is to be changed and change membership functions when fuzziness is to be changed
