6. Classical Sets young = { x  P | age(x) ≤ 20 } A=“young”
Fuzzy Logic
Set Definition
Classical Sets
young = { x  P | age(x) ≤ 20 }
Characteristic function:
A=“young” 1

7. Fuzzy Sets Classical Logic Fuzzy Logic
Set Definition
Fuzzy Sets
Classical Logic
Fuzzy Logic
Element x whether belongs to set A or not at all:
(x){0,1}
Element x belongs to set A
with a certain “degree of membership”:
(x)[0,1]
A=“young” 1
A=“young” 1

8. Fuzzy Sets Definition:

Set Definition
Fuzzy Sets
Definition:
Fuzzy Set A = {(x,A(x)) | x  X, A(x)  [0,1]} is defined by a universe of discourse x where 0 ≤ x ≤ 100 and a membership function A where A(x)  [0,1]
A=“young” 1
Membership function also called characteristic function

9. Some Definitions Support of a fuzzy set A
Fuzzy Logic
Set Definition
Some Definitions
Support of a fuzzy set A
supp(A) = { x  X | A(x) > 0 }
Core of a fuzzy set A
core(A) = { x  X | A(x) = 1 }
α-cut of a fuzzy set A
Aα = { x  X | A(x)  α} x
(x) 1
Alpha cuts usual for implementation in a computer
α = 0.6

10. Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC)
Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) may be viewed as a branch of intelligent control which serves as an emulator of human decision-making behaviour which is approximate rather than exact.
FLC uses the IF-THEN rules, similar to binary control (Programmable Logic Controller, PLC).
Rule Format:
Ri: IF x is Aj AND y is Bk THEN z is Cl
Ri: IF x is Aj OR y is Bk THEN z is Cl

Fuzzy Logic Control
Example: Air Fan
Conventional (On-Off) Control:
IF temperature > X °C, THEN run fan,
ELSE stop fan.
Fuzzy Control:
IF temperature is hot, THEN run fan at full speed;
IF temperature is warm, THEN run fan at moderate speed;
IF temperature is comfortable, THEN maintain fan speed;
IF temperature is cool, THEN slow fan;
IF temperature is cold, THEN stop fan.
