TLDR
The Stone-Weierstrass theorem is used to prove that fuzzy systems with product inference, centroid defuzzification, and a Gaussian membership function are capable of approximating any real continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy.
Abstract
The author proves that fuzzy systems are universal approximators. The Stone-Weierstrass theorem is used to prove that fuzzy systems with product inference, centroid defuzzification, and a Gaussian membership function are capable of approximating any real continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy. This result can be viewed as an existence theorem of an optimal fuzzy system for a wide variety of problems. >

Stable adaptive fuzzy control of nonlinear systems

TL;DR: A direct adaptive fuzzy controller that does not require an accurate mathematical model of the system under control, is capable of incorporating fuzzy if-then control rules directly into the controllers, and guarantees the global stability of the resulting closed-loop system in the sense that all signals involved are uniformly bounded is developed.

Multilayer feedforward networks are universal approximators

TL;DR: It is rigorously established that standard multilayer feedforward networks with as few as one hidden layer using arbitrary squashing functions are capable of approximating any Borel measurable function from one finite dimensional space to another to any desired degree of accuracy, provided sufficiently many hidden units are available.

Fuzzy logic in control systems: fuzzy logic controller. II

TL;DR: The basic aspects of the FLC (fuzzy logic controller) decision-making logic are examined and several issues, including the definitions of a fuzzy implication, compositional operators, the interpretations of the sentence connectives 'and' and 'also', and fuzzy inference mechanisms, are investigated.

Back-propagation fuzzy system as nonlinear dynamic system identifiers

TL;DR: The authors develop a training algorithm, similar to the backpropagation algorithm for neural networks, to train fuzzy systems to match desired input-output pairs and demonstrate how the fuzzy system learns to match an unknown nonlinear mapping as training progresses and that performance is improved by incorporating linguistic rules.
