The process for obtaining inferences in fuzzy production systems described by a base of linked fuzzy conditional statements is characterized by a very high number of operations to be performed. During the development of the process, an important simplification may be achieved by means of a partial compaction of the rule base into punctual values. The values summarize the relationship between the linguistic values associated with the variables, which establish links between fuzzy conditional statements. As a consequence, an important reduction in the computation time and in the storage memory requirements can be achieved.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":222263,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115530986","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}

Such control strategies provide a convenient framework to incorporate human experience and expert knowledge.
