Takagi–Sugeno Fuzzy System and MTF-based Panchromatic Sharpening

The panchromatic sharpening or pansharpening refers to the fusion process of high-resolution panchromatic image and low- resolution multi-spectral images. Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of satellite sensors has also been used for pansharpening. We investigate the use of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems in MTF-based pansharpening algorithms. Traditional pansharpening schemes can result in spatial and/or spectral distortion during the fusion process. A fuzzy integrated fusion scheme is proposed to overcome this limitation. Spectral dissimilarities between panchromatic and multi-spectral bands are also taken into account. While preserving low-resolution multi-spectral information, Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy is introduced to inject appropriate spatial details in the pansharpened image. The local features of panchromatic image are also exploited to preserve the spatial and spectral content. Experiments conducted on Pl\(\acute{e}\)iades, Spot-5 and WorldView-2 data set demonstrate the superior fusion quality of the proposed scheme.     

Takagi–Sugeno Fuzzy Fault-Tolerant Control of an Induction Motor

This paper demonstrates the application of a new fault-tolerant control scheme for a rail vehicle traction system using digital signal processing hardware and a representative induction motor test-rig. The approach presented takes into account the stability and design of non-linear fuzzy inference systems based on Takagi–Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models. The paper derives the necessary conditions for the assignability of eigenvalues to a region in the s-plane and the necessary conditions to guarantee the stability of adaptive fuzzy models. The problem is solved via the Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) method.     

Zonotopic fault detection observer design for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems

This paper considers zonotopic fault detection observer design in the finite-frequency domain for discrete-time Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems with unknown but bounded disturbances and measurement noise. We present a novel fault detection observer structure, which is more general than the commonly used Luenberger form. To make the generated residual sensitive to faults and robust against disturbances, we develop a finite-frequency fault detection observer based on generalised Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov lemma and P-radius criterion. The design conditions are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. The major merit of the proposed method is that residual evaluation can be easily implemented via zonotopic approach. Numerical examples are conducted to demonstrate the proposed method.     

Fault reconstruction for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems via learning observers

This paper addresses the problem of observer-based fault reconstruction for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems. Two types of fuzzy learning observers are constructed to achieve simultaneous reconstruction of system states and actuator faults. Stability and convergence of the proposed observers are proved using Lyapunov stability theory, and necessary conditions for the existence of the observers are further discussed. The design of fuzzy learning observers can be formulated in terms of a series of linear matrix inequalities that can be conveniently solved using convex optimisation technique. A single-link flexible manipulator is employed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed fault-reconstructing approaches.     

Non-fragile guaranteed cost control for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy hyperbolic systems

This paper concerns the problems of non-fragile guaranteed cost control (GCC) for nonlinear systems with or without parameter uncertainties. The Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy hyperbolic model is employed to represent the nonlinear system. The non-fragile controller is designed by parallel distributed compensation (PDC) method, and some sufficient conditions are formulated via linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) such that the system is asymptotically stable and the cost function satisfies an upper bound in the presence of the additive controller perturbations. The above approach is also extended to the non-fragile GCC of T–S fuzzy hyperbolic system with parameter uncertainties, and the robust non-fragile GCC scheme is obtained. The main advantage of the non-fragile GCC based on the T–S fuzzy hyperbolic model is that it can achieve small control amplitude via ‘soft’ constraint approach. Finally, a numerical example and the Van de Vusse example are given to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed approach.     

A generalized Takagi–Sugeno–Kang recurrent fuzzy-neural filter for adaptive noise cancelation

This paper presents a recurrent fuzzy-neural filter for adaptive noise cancelation. The cancelation task is transformed to a system-identification problem, which is tackled by use of the dynamic neuron-based fuzzy neural network (DN-FNN). The fuzzy model is based on Takagi–Sugeno–Kang fuzzy rules, whose consequent parts consist of linear combinations of dynamic neurons. The orthogonal least squares method is employed to select the number of rules, along with the number and kind of dynamic neurons that participate in each rule. Extensive simulation results are given and performance comparison with a series of other dynamic fuzzy and neural models is conducted, underlining the effectiveness of the proposed filter and its superior performance over its competing rivals.     

An Adaptive Learning Method for the Generation of Fuzzy Inference System from Data

Designing a fuzzy inference system （FIS） from data can be divided into two main phases： structure identification and parameter optimization. First, starting from a simple initial topology, the membership functions and system rules are defined as specific structures. Second, to speed up the convergence of the learning algorithm and lighten the oscillation, an improved descent method for FIS generation is developed. Furthermore, the convergence and the oscillation of the algorithm are systematically analyzed. Third, using the information obtained from the previous phase, it can be decided in which region of the input space the density of fuzzy rules should be enhanced and for which variable the number of fuzzy sets that used to partition the domain must be increased. Consequently, this produces a new and more appropriate structure. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the problem of nonlinear function approximation.     

Guaranteed cost control analysis and iterative design for constrained Takagi–Sugeno systems

This paper presents a novel control design technique in order to obtain a guaranteed cost fuzzy controller subject to constraints on the input channel. This guaranteed cost control law is obtained via multi-parametric quadratic programming. The result is a piecewise fuzzy control law where the state partition is defined by fuzzy inequalities. The parameters of the Lyapunov function can be obtained previously using Linear Matrix Inequalities optimization.     

Differential evolution and quantum-inquired differential evolution for evolving Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy models

The differential evolution (DE) is a global optimization algorithm to solve numerical optimization problems. Recently the quantum-inquired differential evolution (QDE) has been proposed for binary optimization. This paper proposes DE/QDE to learn the Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model. DE/QDE can simultaneously optimize the structure and the parameters of the model. Moreover a new encoding scheme is given to allow DE/QDE to be easily performed. The two benchmark problems are used to validate the performance of DE/QDE. Compared to some existing methods, DE/QDE shows the competitive performance in terms of accuracy.     

Absolute stability analysis for a class of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy control systems

This article presents absolute stability conditions for a particular class of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy control systems. Initially, a Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy control system is transformed into a multivariable Lur’e type system. A simple algorithm for checking the absolute stability of this system is then proposed. Since the key of the proposed algorithm is to solve algebraic Riccati equations, software packages such as MATLAB provides a simple means to check the conditions. The proposed approach does not limit the methods of fuzzification and defuzzification. This article presents several analytical examples to verify the simplicity and efficiency of the proposed approach.

Stability Analysis of Parallel Fuzzy P ＋ Fuzzy I ＋ Fuzzy D Control Systems

The study presented in this paper is in continuation with the paper published by the authors on parallel fuzzy proportional plus fuzzy integral plus fuzzy derivative (FP + FI + FD) controller. It addresses the stability analysis of parallel FP + FI + FD controller. The famous"small gain theorem" is used to study the bounded-input and bounded-output (BIBO) stability of the fuzzy controller. Sufficient BIBO-stability conditions are developed for parallel FP + FI + FD controller. FP + FI + FD controller is derived from the conventional parallel proportional plus integral plus derivative (PID) controller. The parallel FP + FI + FD controller is actually a nonlinear controller with variable gains. It shows much better set-point tracking, disturbance rejection and noise suppression for nonlinear processes as compared to conventional PID controller.     

Local and global optimization for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy system by memetic genetic programming

This work presents a method to incorporate standard neuro-fuzzy learning for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems that evolve under a grammar driven genetic programming (GP) framework. This is made possible by introducing heteroglossia in the functional GP nodes, enabling them to switch behavior according to the selected learning stage. A context-free grammar supports the expression of arbitrarily sized and composed fuzzy systems and guides the evolution. Recursive least squares and backpropagation gradient descent algorithms are used as local search methods. A second generation memetic approach combines the genetic programming with the local search procedures. Based on our experimental results, a discussion is included regarding the competitiveness of the proposed methodology and its properties. The contributions of the paper are: (i) introduction of an approach which enables the application of local search learning for intelligent systems evolved by genetic programming, (ii) presentation of a model for memetic learning of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems, (iii) experimental results evaluating model variants and comparison with state-of-the-art models in benchmarking and real-world problems, (iv) application of the proposed model in control.

Output feedback controller design of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems

This paper presents new systematic design methods of two types of output feedback controllers for Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems, one of which is constructed with a fuzzy regulator and a fuzzy observer, while the other is an output direct feedback controller. In order to use the structural information in the rule base to decrease the conservatism of the stability analysis, the standard fuzzy partition (SFP) is employed to the premise variables of fuzzy systems. New stability conditions are obtained by relaxing the stability conditions derived in previous papers. The concept of parallel distributed compensation (PDC) is employed to design fuzzy regulators and fuzzy observers from the T–S fuzzy models. New stability analysis and design methods of output direct feedback controllers are also presented. The output feedback controllers design and simulation results for a nonlinear mass-spring-damper mechanical system show that these methods are effective.     

Takagi–Sugeno Fuzzy Hopfield Neural Networks for $${\mathcal{H}_{\infty}}$$ Nonlinear System Identification

In this paper, we propose a new H_￥{\mathcal H_\infty} weight learning algorithm (HWLA) for nonlinear system identification via Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy Hopfield neural networks with time-delay. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, for the first time, the HWLA for nonlinear system identification is presented to reduce the effect of disturbance to an H_￥{\mathcal{H}_{\infty }} norm constraint. The HWLA can be obtained by solving a convex optimization problem which is represented in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI). An illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed identification scheme.     

A calibration approach based on Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy inference system for digital electronic compasses

Recently, the development of industrial processes brought on the outbreak of technologically complex systems. This development generated the necessity of research relative to the mathematical techniques that have the capacity to deal with project complexities and validation. Fuzzy models have been receiving particular attention in the area of nonlinear systems identification and analysis due to it is capacity to approximate nonlinear behavior and deal with uncertainty. A fuzzy rule-based model suitable for the approximation of many systems and functions is the Takagi–Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. TS fuzzy models are nonlinear systems described by a set of if then rules which gives local linear representations of an underlying system. Such models can approximate a wide class of nonlinear systems. In this paper a performance analysis of a system based on TS fuzzy inference system for the calibration of electronic compass devices is considered. The contribution of the evaluated TS fuzzy inference system is to reduce the error obtained in data acquisition from a digital electronic compass. For the reliable operation of the TS fuzzy inference system, adequate error measurements must be taken. The error noise must be filtered before the application of the TS fuzzy inference system. The proposed method demonstrated an effectiveness of 57% at reducing the total error based on considered tests.
