Fuzzy Qualitative Behaviour Prioritisation

Abstract

Fuzzy qualitative simulation combines the features of qualitative simulation and fuzzy reasoning in order to gain advantages from both. However, the output of a fuzzy qualitative simulation process is a behaviour tree which for complex systems will be large. In order to overcome this and permit focussing on preferred behaviours priortisation was developed. In this paper a new prioritisation scheme is presented that makes use of both constraint and temporal information to perform the prioritisation.
