报告题目：Introduction to Fuzzy Logic Control(模糊控制及应用)
Fuzzy set theory has been used successfully in virtually all the technical fields, including control, modeling. image/signal processing and expert systems. The most successful and active field, however,is fuzzy control. The world's first fuzzy controller was developed in 1974. The primary thrust of this novel control paradigm is to utilize human control operator's knowledge and experience to intuitively construct a controller so that the resulting controller is able to emulate human control behavior to a certain extent. Since mid 1980's, companies around the world have extensively utilized fuzzy control to make better, cheaper and smarter products. Many of them are consumer electronic products commercially available.
In this presentation, Professor Ying will first introduce a type-1 (T1) fuzzy set (that is, the traditional fuzzy set), fuzzy logic and T1 fuzzy inference. He will then describe how a T1 fuzzy controller works. Areal-time T1 fuzzy control system governing blood pressure of open-heart patients in a surgical intensive care unit is presented, which was developed and clinically tested by Professor Ying in 1988. This is world' s very first clinical application of fuzzy control. Fuzzy control involving type-2 (T2) fuzzy sets and inference are drawing increasing attention in the past 15 years or so as the highly successful T1 fuzzy control technology is maturing. The number of reports is relatively small at present, but the trend is upward. Membership function of a T2 fuzzy set is three-dimensional whereas that of a T1 fuzzy set is two dimensional. The newly added third dimension membership enables the T2 fuzzy set to better characterize membership function uncertainties than a T1 fuzzy set can. The reporter will show how a T2 fuzzy controller works.
