The main aim of this book is to show that fuzzy control is not totally ad hoc, that there exist formal techniques for the analysis of a fuzzy controller, and that fuzzy control can be implemented even when no expert knowledge is available.

This objective has already been achieved for fuzzy sliding mode controllers and fuzzy gain schedulers - the main topics of this book.

The main aim of this book is to show that fuzzy control is not totally ad hoc, that there exist formal techniques for the analysis of a fuzzy controller, and that fuzzy control can be implemented even when no expert knowledge is available.

Introduction; General overview; Fuzzy identification from a grey box modeling point of view; Clustering methods; Constructing fuzzy models by product space clustering; Identification of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models via clustering and Hough ...

In the rest of the paper, we consider implementational issues arising from the unless extension and propose the use of reason maintenance systems, in particular TMS's, where a fuzzy If-Then-Unless rule is encoded into a dependency net.
