Besides the capability of modeling nonlinear systems, there are other properties that make fuzzy models interesting not only theoretically but also for the industrial practice. This paper attempts to overview various approaches to fuzzy modeling, seen from the control engineering perspective. Special attention is focused on the construction of fuzzy models from numerical data and the possibility of incorporating a priori knowledge about the system and some open problems are highlighted.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":150477,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems.","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128645150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a fuzzy expert system using a generalised modus ponens based on the fuzzy implication of Brouwer-Godel which is implemented by a fast algorithm. Several kind of rules are accepted and especially gradual rules. We have experimented our system on \"Palni Hills\", a mountainous region of meridional India to locate areas where the profitability of agriculture could be generally the best.

The reinforcement learning method is suitable for learning in an a priori known environment. We have improved IBRL1 (Instance-Based Reinforcement Learning 1), which is based on the instance-based learning approach, to increase the convergence and feasibility of learning in a grid world. It is supposed that the learning agents do not themselves know the correct position in the grid world, but that they receive inputs from their sensors. Thus, agents are faced with what is known as the hidden state problem. The payment of immediate cost in a bucket brigade algorithm, the distribution of delayed reward by profit sharing, and the use of a time series achieves fast and feasible convergence in environments that include the hidden state problem. The capability of this algorithm is demonstrated in the grid world. By using this algorithm, our robot in the simulation is able to learn the path to the goal. Experiment demonstrates a learning effect through decline in the spent steps during repetitions of goal search.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":150477,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems.","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129210487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
