From the preface: The present book contains twenty one chapters, written by thirty four distinguished contributors and divided into the following five parts: Part 1: General Issues; Part 2: Neuro-Fuzzy Systems; Part 3: Fuzzy Controllers; Part 4: Fuzzy Reasoning and Estimation; Part 5: Applications.
Part 1 involves four chapters providing background material together with useful techniques for the validation of fuzzy knowledge bases and the software representation of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic. Part 2 presents an overview of neuro-fuzzy expert systems along with an important case study, and a neural network model which is suitable for fuzzy reasoning. Part 3 presents the state of art of fuzzy controllers, including design and implementation aspects. This part starts with a chapter on the demystification of fuzzy control and includes critical evaluations of fuzzy controllers, along with new types of fuzzy controllers such as the sliding mode fuzzy controller. Part 4 involves a chapter on fuzzy parameter and state estimation, which is of fundamental importance in a variety of applications, a chapter on fuzzy reasoning as used in rule-based systems, and a chapter on computing the multivariable shape of an \(n\)-\(D\) pattern class. Finally, Part 5 presents six important applications dealing with industrial robotic systems, mechanical systems, manipulators with artificial rubber muscles, Petri nets, biomedical engineering, a nondestructive fruit collection.
The book is intended for researchers and practitioners, as well as for teachers and students in related Master and Doctoral courses.
