TL;DR: In this paper, a novel fuzzy structure termed as the decomposed fuzzy system (DFS) is proposed to act as the fuzzy approximator for adaptive fuzzy control systems and can be seen that the simplified DFS can perform fairly with a more concise decomposition structure.
Abstract: In this paper, a novel fuzzy structure termed as the decomposed fuzzy system (DFS) is proposed to act as the fuzzy approximator for adaptive fuzzy control systems. The proposed structure is to decompose each fuzzy variable into layers of fuzzy systems, and each layer is to characterize one traditional fuzzy set. Similar to forming fuzzy rules in traditional fuzzy systems, layers from different variables form the so-called component fuzzy systems. DFS is proposed to provide more adjustable parameters to facilitate possible adaptation in fuzzy rules, but without introducing a learning burden. It is because those component fuzzy systems are independent so that it can facilitate minimum distribution learning effects among component fuzzy systems. It can be seen from our experiments that even when the rule number increases, the learning time in terms of cycles is still almost constant. It can also be found that the function approximation capability and learning efficiency of the DFS are much better than that of the traditional fuzzy systems when employed in adaptive fuzzy control systems. Besides, in order to further reduce the computational burden, a simplified DFS is proposed in this paper to satisfy possible real time constraints required in many applications. From our simulation results, it can be seen that the simplified DFS can perform fairly with a more concise decomposition structure.

TL;DR: In this study, an exoskeleton type robot-assisted rehabilitation system, called RehabRoby, is developed for rehabilitation purposes and a control architecture, which contains a high- level controller and a low-level controller, is designed so that Rehab Roby can complete the given rehabilitation task in a desired and safe manner.
Abstract: In this study, an exoskeleton type robot-assisted rehabilitation system, called RehabRoby, is developed for rehabilitation purposes. A control architecture, which contains a high-level controller and a low-level controller, is designed so that RehabRoby can complete the given rehabilitation task in a desired and safe manner. A hybrid system modelling technique is used for the high-level controller. An admittance control with an inner robust position control loop is used for the low-level control of the RehabRoby. Real-time experiments are performed to evaluate the control architecture of the robot-assisted rehabilitation system, RehabRoby. Furthermore, the usability of RehabRoby is evaluated.

TL;DR: Experimental and simulation results are presented that validate the proposed approach for neuro-fuzzy control of a single-link flexible robot manipulator that uses a computer-aided design (CAD) program.
Abstract: A modelling approach for neuro-fuzzy control of a single-link flexible robot manipulator that uses a computer-aided design (CAD) program is proposed. Initially, a CAD model of the flexible link is created using experimentally determined values of system parameters. This CAD model is then exported to MATLAB software and the Simulink/SimMechanics toolbox. An adaptive-network-based fuzzy logic controller is used for position and vibration control of the flexible link.Experimental and simulation results are presented that validate the proposed approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid fuzzy-logic and neural-network controller (HFNC) was developed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, which consists of a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) which was designed to control each degree of freedom (DOF) of a MIMO system individually and an additional coupling neural network which was incorporated into the FLC to compensate for the dynamic coupling effects between each DOF of the system.

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.
Abstract: For pt.I see ibid., vol.20, no.2, p.404-18, 1990. The basic aspects of the FLC (fuzzy logic controller) decision-making logic are examined. 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. Defuzzification strategies, are discussed. Some of the representative applications of the FLC, from laboratory level to industrial process control, are briefly reported. Some unsolved problems are described, and further challenges in this field are discussed. >

TL;DR: The fuzzy logic controller (FLC) based on fuzzy logic provides a means of converting a linguistic control strategy based on expert knowledge into an automatic control strategy.
Abstract: During the past several years, fuzzy control has emerged as one of the most active and fruitful areas for research in the applications of fuzzy set theory. Fuzzy control is based on fuzzy logic. The fuzzy logic controller (FLC) based on fuzzy logic provides a means of converting a linguistic control strategy based on expert knowledge into an automatic control strategy. A survey of the FLC is presented; a general methodology for constructing an FLC and assessing its performance is described; and problems that need further research are pointed out
