VII.SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION:
Todays most successful technologies for
developing sophisticated control system.
Addresses applications perfectly resembling
human decision.
Fills an important gap in engineering design
methods.

HISTORY:
1965 Seminal Paper Fuzzy Logic by Prof. Lotfi
Zadeh .
1970 First Application in Control Engineering
1980 Empirical Verification in Europe
2000 Becomes a Standard Technology.

WHAT IS FUZZY
LOGIC?

DEFINITION:
Fuzzy logic is a superset of
conventional (Boolean) logic that
has been extended to handle the
concept of partial truth -- truth
values between "completely true"
and "completely false".

REPRESENTATION:
Slowest
[ 0.0 0.25 ]

Slow
[ 0.25 0.50 ]

Fast
[ 0.50 0.75 ]

Fastest
[ 0.75 1.00 ]

CLASSICAL & FUZZY

SET

Classical Set
(Crisp)
Contain
objects that satisfy
precise properties of membership.
Example: Set of heights from 5 to
7 feet
1xA

(x)=
{
A

0xA

X(height)

Fuzzy Set
Contain objects that satisfy imprecise
properties of membership
Example : The set of heights in the
region around 6 feet
1

Membership Function

X (height)

FUZZY SET
REPRESENTATION:

A = {x, A(x) | x X}
Where,
A Fuzzy Set
x Elements of X
X Universe of Discourse
A(x) Membership Function of x in A

SALIENT FEATURES OF
FUZZY
LOGIC:
Conceptually
easy to understand.
Based on natural language.
Tolerant of imprecise data.
Can model nonlinear functions of
arbitrary complexity

Fuzzy control
system

PROCESSES:
FUZZIFICATION: Using membership
functions to graphically describe a
situation.
RULE EVALUATION: Application of
Fuzzy Rules.
DEFUZZIFICATION: Obtaining the crisp

BLOCK DIAGRAM:

HOW FUZZY
WORKS:
Takes information in normal language
and converts it into values.
Values given in form of words such as
small, smallest.
Input and output variables are
determined as less, much, hot and cold
etc.

Outputs produced by using fuzzified

inputs and rules are determined.
Fuzzified outputs converted to real values
(defuzzification).

APPLICATIONS OF
FUZZY
LOGIC:
Automatic Control System
User Interface and neural language
processing
Domestic appliances and embedded
system

WASHING MACHINE BASED

ON FUZZY LOGIC

Saves effort in
brushing, agitating
and washing the
cloth.
Different type of
cloth need different
amount of washing
time

BLOCK DIAGRAM:

PARAMETERS USED:
INPUT VARIABLES:
Degree of Dirt: Determined by transparency of
the wash water.
Type of Dirt: Determined by time of saturation.

OUTPUT VARIABLES:
Wash Time: Depends on the input variables
Degree of dirt & type of dirt.

SUMMARY:
Provides an alternative way to represent
linguistic attributes of the real world in
computing.
Improves the efficiency and simplicity of
the design process.
Fuzzy sets are sets with soft boundaries

Performs interference on fuzzy sets

Applied in a variety of areas
Future developments are likely to be
concerned with uncertainty model.
