INTRODUCTION TO FUZZY SYSTEMS (ebook)

Introduction to Fuzzy Systems provides students with a self-contained introduction that requires no preliminary knowledge of fuzzy mathematics and fuzzy control systems theory. Simplified and readily accessible, it encourages both classroom and self-directed learners to build a solid foundation in fuzzy systems. To keep pace with and further advance the rapidly developing field of applied control technologies, this book provides systematic training in the analytic theory and rigorous design of fuzzy systems. Almost entirely self-contained, it establishes a brief, yet sufficient foundation for designing and analyzing fuzzy intelligent and control systems. It clearly explains fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic, fuzzy inference, approximate reasoning, fuzzy rule base, basic fuzzy PID control systems, and more. This outstanding text includes teaching examples as well as problem exercises, and it can easily be used as a classroom text or tutorial for self-study that will prepare readers for further work in the field.
