Defuzzification

Soft Computing
DEFUZZIFICATION TO CRISP SETS

• For fuzzy set A∼, define a lambda-cut set, Aλ,


where 0 ≤ λ ≤ 1.

• The set Aλ is a crisp set called the lambda (λ)-


cut (or alpha-cut) set of the fuzzy set A∼
• Any particular fuzzy set A∼can be transformed
into an infinite number of λ-cut sets, because
there are an infinite number of values λ on the
interval [0, 1].
• The quantity λ = 0+ is defined as a
small ‘‘ε’’ value >0, i.e., a value just
greater than zero.
• By definition, λ = 0 produces the
universe X, since all elements in the
universe have at least a 0
membership value in any set on the
universe.
• Properties of λ-cut sets
• λ-CUTS FOR FUZZY RELATIONS
• DEFUZZIFICATION TO SCALARS

• Defuzzification is the conversion of a fuzzy


quantity to a precise quantity, just as
fuzzification is the conversion of a precise
quantity to a fuzzy quantity.
• The output of a fuzzy process can be the
logical union of two or more fuzzy
membership functions defined on the
universe of discourse of the output variable.
1. Max membership principle
2. Centroid method
3. Weighted average method:
4. Mean max membership
5. Center of sums
6. Center of largest area
7. First (or last) of maxima:
• Max membership principle:Also
known as the height method, this
scheme is limited to peaked
output functions.
• Centroid method: This procedure (also called
center of area, center of gravity) is the most
prevalent and physically appealing of all the
defuzzification methods [Sugeno,1985; Lee,
1990];
• it is given by the algebraic expression
• Weighted average method: The weighted
average method is the most frequently
used in fuzzy applications since it is one of
the more computationally efficient methods.
• it is usually restricted to symmetrical
output membership functions.
• It is given by the algebraic expression
• Mean max membership: This method
(also called middle-of-maxima) is closely related
to the first method, except that the locations of
the maximum membership can be nonunique
(i.e., the maximum membership can be a plateau
rather than a single point).
• This method is given by the expression
• Center of sums: This is faster than many
defuzzification methods that are presently in use,
and the method is not restricted to symmetric
membership functions.
• This process involves the algebraic sum of individual
output fuzzy sets, instead of their union.
• Two drawbacks to this method are that the
intersecting areas are added twice, and the method
also involves finding the centroids of the individual
membership functions
• Center of largest area: If the output fuzzy
set has at least two convex sub regions, then the
center of gravity (i.e., z∗ is calculated using the
centroid method, )of the convex fuzzy subregion
with the largest area is used to obtain the
defuzzified value.
• First (or last) of maxima: This
method uses the overall output or
union of all individual output fuzzy
sets to determine the smallest value
of the domain with maximized
membership degree in C∼k. The
equations for z∗ are as follows.
• supremum (sup) is the least upper bound and the infimum (inf) is
the greatest lower bound.
