一种等价于PI的二型模糊控制器设计算法

区间二型模糊集合将次隶属度做了简化,基于KM降阶算法的区间二型模糊控制器实现起来相对简单。虽然区间二型模糊控制器在一定程度上优于传统的一型模糊控制器或者PI控制器等,但区间二型模糊控制器并没有充分利用二型模糊集合的次隶属度信息。为解决这些问题,研究了普通二型模糊控制器的一般结构,提出了一种等价于PI的二型模糊控制器。该控制器基于普通二型模糊集合的α平面表现形式,在次隶属度函数的顶点处,将区间二型模糊集合简化为一型模糊集合。通过n阶有自平衡对象,无自平衡对象以及2个非线性对象的仿真结果表明,提出的二型模糊控制器能够得到较好的控制效果。     

Ⅱ型模糊控制综述

二型模糊系统的规则提取算法

模糊规则提取是建立二型模糊系统需要解决的关键问题.提出一种改进的基于c均值模糊聚类算法(FCM)的二型模糊规则提取方法.该方法借助于二型模糊集主隶属度函数的期望与次隶属度函数值之间的联系,能克服已有算法忽略二型模糊集次隶属度函数对模糊聚类结果的影响.仿真实例表明.该算法能成功地提取二型模糊规则,比FCMV算法具有更好的性能和收敛性.     

区间二型模糊相似度与包含度

相似度与包含度是模糊集合理论中的两个重要概念,但对于二型模糊集合的研究还较为少见．鉴于此,提出了新的区间二型模糊相似度与包含度．首先选择了二者的公理化定义;然后基于公理化定义提出了新的计算公式,并讨论了二者的相互转换关系;最后通过实例来验证二者的性能,并将区间二型模糊相似度与Yang-Shih聚类方法相结合,用于高斯区间二型模糊集合的聚类分析,得到了合理的层次聚类树．仿真实例表明新测度具有一定的实用价值．     

正态模糊集合——Fuzzy集理论的新拓展

直觉模糊集（intuitionistic fuzzy sets）、区间值模糊集（interval-valued fuzzy sets）以及Vague集对普通fuzzy集的扩展是给出了隶属度的上下限，把隶属度从[0，1]区间中的一个单值推广到了[0，1]的子区间。但是该子区间犹如一个黑洞，隶属度在其内部的分布情况我们无从知晓，即这个子区间中的每一个值是等可能地作为元素的隶属度还是区间中的某些值较另外的值有更大的可能性呢？为了清晰的刻画出元素的隶属度在[0，1]区间中的分布情况，本文通过对投票模型的分析及正态分布理论，提出了一种新的模糊集合——正态模糊集合，同时对正态模糊集合的交、并、补等基本运算性质进行了讨论，文章最后对正态模糊集与fuzzy集、直觉模糊集的相互关系也作出了详细阐述。正态模糊集合是模糊集合理论的进一步推广，为我们处理模糊信息提供了一种全新的思想方法。     

一类乘积型区间二型模糊控制器的解析结构

区间二型模糊控制器的降型算法需要使用迭代计算,是导致其解析结构推导困难的主要原因.针对乘积型区间二型模糊控制器,本文提出了一种新的解析结构推导方法.区间二型模糊控制器的配置为:三角形输入模糊集,一型输出模糊单值,集合中心法降型器,平均法解模糊器和基于乘积型"与"操作的规则前件.通过对比传统PID控制器的解析结构,证明了区间二型模糊控制器等效于两个PI(或PD)控制器之和.利用KM算法的迭代终止条件,提出了6步骤IC划分法,保证了激活子空间的正确划分.叠加各个子空间,即可得出全局IC划分图.为了避免重复求解符号数学方程,提出了IC边界线的直接定义法,改进了6步骤IC划分法的便利性.本文方法避开了降型算法的迭代计算,可以保证推导出区间二型模糊控制器的闭环解析表达式.     

广义区间二型模糊集合的词计算

普通的模糊集合是点值为二维的一型模糊集合,二型模糊集合(Type-2 fuzzy sets, T2 FS)是点值为三维的模糊集合, T2 FS比相应的一型难以理解和计算. 为了让人们更好地理解T2 FS并推广其应用, 本文提出了广义区间二型模糊集合(Generalized interval type-2 fuzzy sets, GIT2 FS)的定义, 并将其分成三类:离散型、半离散型及连续型,分别给出相应的数学表达式与扩展原理公式,并得到了GIT2 FS在两种不同的模糊逻辑算子下的词计算.

该文提出一种基于词汇模糊集合的模糊推理机以识别汉语主观句。首先,根据主、客观词概念的模糊性,我们定义了两个相应的模糊集合,并在模糊统计方法下,利用TF-IDF从训练语料中获取隶属度函数。然后制定了两个模糊IF-THEN规则,并据此实现了一个模糊推理机以识别汉语主观句。NTCIR-6中文数据上的实验结果表明我们的方法具有一定的可行性。
     

Uncertainty measures for interval type-2 fuzzy sets

Fuzziness (entropy) is a commonly used measure of uncertainty for type-1 fuzzy sets. For interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs), centroid, cardinality, fuzziness, variance and skewness are all measures of uncertainties. The centroid of an IT2 FS has been defined by Karnik and Mendel. In this paper, the other four concepts are defined. All definitions use a Representation Theorem for IT2 FSs. Formulas for computing the cardinality, fuzziness, variance and skewness of an IT2 FS are derived. These definitions should be useful in IT2 fuzzy logic systems design using the principles of uncertainty, and in measuring the similarity between two IT2 FSs.     

Interval type-2 fuzzy membership function generation methods for pattern recognition

Type-2 fuzzy sets (T2 FSs) have been shown to manage uncertainty more effectively than T1 fuzzy sets (T1 FSs) in several areas of engineering [4], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [15], [16], [17], [18], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26], [27] and [30]. However, computing with T2 FSs can require undesirably large amount of computations since it involves numerous embedded T2 FSs. To reduce the complexity, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs) can be used, since the secondary memberships are all equal to one [21]. In this paper, three novel interval type-2 fuzzy membership function (IT2 FMF) generation methods are proposed. The methods are based on heuristics, histograms, and interval type-2 fuzzy C-means. The performance of the methods is evaluated by applying them to back-propagation neural networks (BPNNs). Experimental results for several data sets are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed membership assignments.     

Uncertainty measures for general Type-2 fuzzy sets

Five uncertainty measures have previously been defined for interval Type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2 FSs), namely centroid, cardinality, fuzziness, variance and skewness. Based on a recently developed α-plane representation for a general T2 FS, this paper generalizes these definitions to such T2 FSs and, more importantly, derives a unified strategy for computing all different uncertainty measures with low complexity. The uncertainty measures of T2 FSs with different shaped Footprints of Uncertainty and different kinds of secondary membership functions (MFs) are computed and are given as examples. Observations and summaries are made for these examples, and a Summary Interval Uncertainty Measure for a general T2 FS is proposed to simplify the interpretations. Comparative studies of uncertainty measures for Quasi-Type-2 (QT2), IT2 and T2 FSs are also performed to examine the feasibility of approximating T2 FSs using QT2 or even IT2 FSs.     

Type-2 Fuzzistics for Symmetric Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets: Part 1, Forward Problems

Interval type-2 fuzzy sets (T2 FS) play a central role in fuzzy sets as models for words and in engineering applications of T2 FSs. These fuzzy sets are characterized by their footprints of uncertainty (FOU), which in turn are characterized by their boundaries-upper and lower membership functions (MF). In this two-part paper, we focus on symmetric interval T2 FSs for which the centroid (which is an interval type-1 FS) provides a measure of its uncertainty. Intuitively, we anticipate that geometric properties about the FOU, such as its area and the center of gravities (centroids) of its upper and lower MFs, will be associated with the amount of uncertainty in such a T2 FS. The main purpose of this paper (Part 1) is to demonstrate that our intuition is correct and to quantify the centroid of a symmetric interval T2 FS, and consequently its uncertainty, with respect to such geometric properties. It is then possible, for the first time, to formulate and solve forward problems, i.e., to go from parametric interval T2 FS models to data with associated uncertainty bounds. We provide some solutions to such problems. These solutions are used in Part 2 to solve some inverse problems, i.e., to go from uncertain data to parametric interval T2 FS models (T2 fuzzistics)     

On answering the question “Where do I start in order to solve a new problem involving interval type-2 fuzzy sets?”

This paper, which is tutorial in nature, demonstrates how the Embedded Sets Representation Theorem (RT) for a general type-2 fuzzy set (T2 FS), when specialized to an interval (I)T2 FS, can be used as the starting point to solve many diverse problems that involve IT2 FSs. The problems considered are: set theoretic operations, centroid, uncertainty measures, similarity, inference engine computations for Mamdani IT2 fuzzy logic systems, linguistic weighted average, person membership function approach to type-2 fuzzistics, and Interval Approach to type-2 fuzzistics. Each solution obtained from the RT is a structural solution but is not a practical computational solution, however, the latter are always found from the former. It is this author’s recommendation that one should use the RT as a starting point whenever solving a new problem involving IT2 FSs because it has had such great success in solving so many such problems in the past, and it answers the question “Where do I start in order to solve a new problem involving IT2 FSs?”     

二型模糊粗糙属性约简模型

属性约简是粗糙集理论的重要应用之一,其目的是在保持分类能力不变的前提下去掉冗余的属性,从而简化信息系统。由于经典粗糙集等价关系的要求过于严格,为了更好地解决实际问题,将粗糙集与二型模糊集结合,得到二型模糊粗糙集。利用论域和特征空间的积空间上的两个一型模糊集来构造论域的一个二型模糊划分,将模糊粗糙集属性约简的模型推广到二型模糊粗糙集框架中,得到了一个二型模糊粗糙属性约简的模型,并举例说明了用此模型进行属性约简的方法。     

$alpha$-Plane Representation for Type-2 Fuzzy Sets: Theory and Applications

This paper 1) reviews the alpha-plane representation of a type-2 fuzzy set (T2 FS), which is a representation that is comparable to the alpha-cut representation of a type-1 FS (T1 FS) and is useful for both theoretical and computational studies of and for T2 FSs; 2) proves that set theoretic operations for T2 FSs can be computed using very simple alpha-plane computations that are the set theoretic operations for interval T2 (IT2) FSs; 3) reviews how the centroid of a T2 FS can be computed using alpha-plane computations that are also very simple because they can be performed using existing Karnik Mendel algorithms that are applied to each alpha-plane; 4) shows how many theoretically based geometrical properties can be obtained about the centroid, even before the centroid is computed; 5) provides examples that show that the mean value (defuzzified value) of the centroid can often be approximated by using the centroids of only 0 and 1 alpha -planes of a T2 FS; 6) examines a triangle quasi-T2 fuzzy logic system (Q-T2 FLS) whose secondary membership functions are triangles and for which all calculations use existing T1 or IT2 FS mathematics, and hence, they may be a good next step in the hierarchy of FLSs, from T1 to IT2 to T2; and 7) compares T1, IT2, and triangle Q-T2 FLSs to forecast noise-corrupted measurements of a chaotic Mackey-Glass time series.
