pimf

Pi-shaped membership function

Description

This function computes fuzzy membership values using a spline-based pi-shaped membership function. You can also compute this membership function using a fismf object. For more information, see fismf Object.

This membership function is related to the smf and zmf membership functions.

example

y = pimf(x,params) returns fuzzy membership values computed using a spline-based pi-shaped membership function. This membership function is the product of an smf function and a zmf function, and is given by:

f(x;a,b,c,d)={0,xa2(xaba)2,axa+b212(xbb-a)2,a+b2xb1,bxc12(xcdc)2,   cxc+d2   2(xdd-c)2,     c+d2xd          0,                    xd}

To specify the a, b, c, and d parameters, use params.

Membership values are computed for each input value in x.

Examples

collapse all

x = 0:0.1:10;
y = pimf(x,[1 4 5 10]);
plot(x,y)
xlabel('pimf, P = [1 4 5 10]')
ylim([-0.05 1.05])

Input Arguments

collapse all

Input values for which to compute membership values, specified as a scalar or vector.

Membership function parameters, specified as the vector [a b c d]. Parameters a and d define the feet of the membership function, and b and c define its shoulders.

Output Arguments

collapse all

Membership value returned as a scalar or a vector. The dimensions of y match the dimensions of x. Each element of y is the membership value computed for the corresponding element of x.

Alternative Functionality

fismf Object

You can create and evaluate a fismf object that implements the pimf membership function.

mf = fismf("pimf",P);
Y = evalmf(mf,X);

Here, X, P, and Y correspond to the x, params, and y arguments of pimf, respectively.
