An approach to the formulation of fuzzy if-then rules based on clustering objective functions is proposed. The membership functions are then calibrated with the generalized neural networks technique to achieve a desired input-output mapping. The learning procedure is basically a gradient-descent algorithm. A Kalman filter algorithm is used to improve the overall performance.
An approach is presented to the control of a dynamic physical system through the use of approximate reasoning. The approach has been implemented in a program named POLE, and the authors have successfully built a prototype hardware system to solve the cartpole balancing problem in real-time. The approach provides a complementary alternative to the conventional analytical control methodology and is of substantial use when a precise mathematical model of the process being controlled is not available. A set of criteria for comparing controllers based on approximate reasoning and those based on conventional control schemes is furnished.
