Fuzzy Inference System Modeling

Build fuzzy inference systems and fuzzy trees

Fuzzy inference is the process of formulating input/output mappings using fuzzy logic. Fuzzy Logic Toolbox™ software provides tools for creating:

  • Type-1 or interval type-2 Mamdani fuzzy inference systems

  • Type-1 or interval type-2 Sugeno fuzzy inference systems

  • Trees of interconnected fuzzy inference systems

For more information on fuzzy logic, see What Is Fuzzy Logic?. For more information on fuzzy inference, see Fuzzy Inference Process.

Topics

Fuzzy Logic Basics

What Is Fuzzy Logic?

Fuzzy logic uses linguistic variables, defined as fuzzy sets, to approximate human reasoning.

Foundations of Fuzzy Logic

A fuzzy logic system is a collection of fuzzy if-then rules that perform logical operations on fuzzy sets.

Fuzzy Inference Process

Fuzzy inference maps an input space to an output space using a series of fuzzy if-then rules.

Fuzzy Inference Systems

Mamdani and Sugeno Fuzzy Inference Systems

You can implement either Mamdani or Sugeno fuzzy inference systems using Fuzzy Logic Toolbox software.

Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems

You can create and evaluate interval type-2 fuzzy inference systems with additional membership function uncertainty.

Fuzzy Trees

You can implement complex fuzzy inference systems as a collection of smaller interconnected fuzzy systems.

Build Fuzzy Inference Systems

Build Fuzzy Systems Using Fuzzy Logic Designer

Interactively construct a fuzzy inference system using the Fuzzy Logic Designer app.

Build Fuzzy Systems at the Command Line

Construct a fuzzy inference system at the MATLAB® command line.

Build Fuzzy Systems Using Custom Functions

You can replace the built-in membership functions and fuzzy inference functions with your own custom functions.
