Patent number: 5305425Abstract: For an input value, conformity grades are computed and are displayed for established membership functions. Alternatively, conformity grades and change rates thereof developed when a fuzzy reasoning system is operated are displayed. Alternatively, a change with respect to time of the input value is displayed to be superimposed onto a table representing the established rules. Alternatively, an output value resultant from a fuzzy reasoning conducted with a particular rule removed is compared with a fuzzy reasoning achieved by using all rules, thereby displaying the difference on a rule table. As above, various features in the fuzzy reasoning are extracted and are displayed so as to check adequacy of the established membership functions and rules.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 1991Date of Patent: April 19, 1994Assignee: Omron CorporationInventors: Tsutomu Ishida, Nobuo Tsuchiya, Kazuaki Shoji, Nobutomo Matsunaga

Patent number: 5179634Abstract: A fuzzy rule generator for generating fuzzy rules, comprising: a selection unit for selecting two or more sets of rules from a plurality of basic sets of rules which may be stored in memory; and a control unit for generating a new set of rules by carrying out a synthetic arithmetic operation based on a predetermined set of rules for synthesis. This process of synthesis may simply consist of addition or subtraction. Thereby, a new set of rules can be easily generated by carrying out a simple arithmetic operation for each application. Therefore, generation and modification of rules are simplified and speeded up, with additional benefits arising from an efficient utilization of existing sets of rules. Further, by imposing a constraint on the newly synthesized set of rules manually, automatically or by a combination of both according to a predefined algorithm, it is possible not only to ensure the stability of the system but also to obtain desired control characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 1992Date of Patent: January 12, 1993Assignee: Omron CorporationInventors: Nobutomo Matsunaga, Kazuaki Shoji
