Abstract
This paper presents an overview of fuzzy set theory and its application to the analysis and design of fuzzy expert control systems. Starting with a short account of the basic concepts and properties of fuzzy sets and fuzzy reasoning, a few fuzzy rule-based controllers, viz, basic single-input singleoutput fuzzy control, self-organizing fuzzy control, fuzzy PID supervisor, and the fuzzy PID incremental controller, are described in some detail. Then a survey of the theoretical results and applications is provided which gives a good picture of the current status of the field. This survey includes the work on neuro-fuzzy systems, and software systems for the representation and processing of fuzzy information. The paper closes with four application examples which show the type of results that must be expected from fuzzy expert control.Keywords
