Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy logic is determined as a set of mathematical principles for knowledge representation based on degrees of membership rather than on crisp membership of classical binary logic
Fuzzy Logic
Fuzzy Logic
• Multi-valued• Deals with degree of
membership• Degrees of truth• Uses continuum of logical
val;ues between 0 (completely false) and 1(completely true)
Fuzzy Sets
Fuzzy set
• Refer page 89• The basic idea of fuzzy set
theory ; an element belongs to a fuzzy set with certain degree of membership.
• Not either true or false, but partly true(false) to any degree
• Taken as a real number in the interval
• Refer table 4.1, fig. 4.2.
Fuzzy set theory
• Crisp set– Let X be the universe of discourse and its
elements be denoted as x. crisp set A of X is defined as function fA(x) of A
• fA(x): X 0,1
• Where
Axif
Axifxf A ,0
,1)(
Fuzzy set theory
• Fuzzy set– Fuzzy set A of universe X is defined by function
A(x) called membership function of set A A(x): X [0,1]
• where A(x) = 1 if x is totally in A• A(x) = 0 if x is not in A
0 < A(x) < 1 if x is partly in A
The representation of fuzzy set
• Determine the membership function
• Method to determine membership function– Single expert– Multiple experts– Self generated by ANN, learn the data & derive
the fuzzy sets.
The representation of fuzzy set• Refer ‘tall men’ example (figure 4.3, 4.4)• Fuzzy set of tall men in figure 4.3 can be
represented as fit-vectorTall men = (0/180, 0.5/185, 1/190) or
Tall men = (0/180, 1/190)
• Fuzzy set of short and average menShort men = (1/160, 0.5/165, 0/170) or
Short men = (1/160, 0/170)
average men = (0/165, 1/175, 0/185)
Linguistic variables and hedges• A fuzzy variable
• E.g. the statement “John is tall” implies that the linguistic variable John takes the linguistic value tall
• In fuzzy ES linguistic variables are used in fuzzy rulesIF wind is strong
THEN sailing is good
IF project duration is long
THEN completion_risk is high
IF the speed is slow
THEN stopping_distance is short
Linguistic variables and hedges• E.g. The linguistic variable speed have range between 0
and 220 km/hour may include fuzzy subsets as very slow, slow, medium, fast and very fast
• Hedges - fuzzy set qualifiers
– Carries by a linguistic variable
– Terms that modifies fuzzy sets
– Includes adverb I.e. very, somewhat, quite, more or less and slightly
– Can modify verbs, adjectives, adverbs or thw whole sentence (pg 95)
Linguistic variables and hedges• Hedges act as operations
– Very perform concentration and creates new subset
– E.g. tall men derive the subset very tall men
– Dilation : the of more or less tall men is broader than the set of tall men.
– Refer figure 4.5.
– Refer table 4.2

Fuzzy rules• Capturing human knowledge in fuzzy rules
• Form of fuzzy rules:
IF x is A
THEN y is B
Where x and y are linguistic variables; A and B are linguistic values determined by fuzzy sets
Fuzzy rules• Difference with classical rules
– Classical IF-THEN rule uses binary logic e.g.
• Rule 1:
IF speed is > 100 THEN the stopping_distance is long
• Rule 2:
IF speed is < 40 THEN stopping_distance is short
– The variable speed can have any numerical value between 0-220km/h
– The linguistic variables stopping_distance can only take either long or short.
Fuzzy rules• Difference with classical rules
– Fuzzy IF-THEN rules uses binary logic e.g.
• Rule 1:
IF speed is fast THEN the stopping_distance is long
• Rule 2:
IF speed is slow THEN stopping_distance is short
– The variable speed can have any numerical value between 0-220km/h but include fuzzy sets range , slow, medium and fast
– The linguistic variables stopping_distance can be between 0 and 300m and may take fuzzy sets as short, medium or long
• Fuzzy expert systems merge the rules and consequently cut the number of rules at least 90%
Reasoning with Fuzzy rules• Includes 2 distinct part
– Evaluating the rule antecedent (the IF part)– Implication or applying the result to the consequent (the THEN
part)
• Mechanism– In classical rule based system
• If the rule antecedent is true, the consequent is also true
– In fuzzy systems, • All rules fires to some extent, • Partially fire• If the antecedent is true to some degree of membership, then the
consequent is also true to that same degree
– Discuss fig. 4.8, 4.9
Reasoning with Fuzzy rules• A fuzzy rule can have
– Multiple parts of antecedent
– Multiple parts of consequent (see example pg 105)
• In general fuzzy expert system incorporates not one but several rules that describe expert knowledge
Reasoning with Fuzzy rules• The output of each rule is a fuzzy set but need to
obtain a single number representing the ES output
• The output of the fuzzy sets are combined and transformed into a single number by..– Aggregates all output fuzzy sets into a single output
fuzzy set
– Then defuzzifies the resulting fuzzy set into a single number
– Fuzzy inference
Fuzzy inference• A process of mapping from a given input to an
output using the fuzzy theory.
– Mamdani-style inference
– Sugeno-style inference
Fuzzy inference• Mamdani-style inference• Involve 4 steps
– Fuzzification of the input variables
– Rule evaluation
– Aggregation of the rule output
– Defuzzification
• Refer example in pg 106-112
Building fuzzy ES• An iterative process that involves defining fuzzy
sets and fuzzy rules, evaluating and the tuning the system to meet the specified requirement.
