Finite-time stability and stabilisation for a class of nonlinear systems with time-varying delay
2014
This paper is concerned with the problems of finite-time stability FTS and finite-time stabilisation for a class of nonlinear systems with time-varying delay, which can be represented by Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy system. Some new delay-dependent FTS conditions are provided and applied to the design problem of finite-time fuzzy controllers. First, based on an integral inequality and a fuzzy Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, a delay-dependent FTS criterion is proposed for open-loop fuzzy system by introducing some free fuzzy weighting matrices, which are less conservative than other existing ones. Then, the parallel distributed compensation controller is designed to ensure FTS of the time-delay fuzzy…
Introducing a Fuzzy-Pattern Operator in Fuzzy Time Series
2017
In this paper we introduce a fuzzy pattern operator and propose a new weighting fuzzy time series strategy for generating accurate ex-post forecasts. A decision support system is built for managing the weights of the information provided by the historical data, under a fuzzy time series framework. Our procedure analyzes the historical performance of the time series using different experiments, and it classifies the characteristics of the series through a fuzzy operator, providing a trapezoidal fuzzy number as one-step ahead forecast. We also present some numerical results related to the predictive performance of our procedure with time series of financial data sets.
Fault detection for nonlinear networked systems based on quantization and dropout compensation: An interval type-2 fuzzy-model method
2016
Abstract This paper investigates the problem of filter-based fault detection for a class of nonlinear networked systems subject to parameter uncertainties in the framework of the interval type-2 (IT2) T–S fuzzy model-based approach. The Bernoulli random distribution process and logarithm quantizer are used to describe the measurement loss and signals quantization, respectively. In the framework of the IT2 T–S fuzzy model, the parameter uncertainty is handled by the membership functions with lower and upper bounds. A novel IT2 fault detection filter is designed to guarantee the residual system to be stochastically stable and satisfy the predefined H ∞ performance. It should be mentioned that…
George-Veeramani Fuzzy Metrics Revised
2018
In this note, we present an alternative approach to the concept of a fuzzy metric, calling it a revised fuzzy metric. In contrast to the traditional approach to the theory of fuzzy metric spaces which is based on the use of a t-norm, we proceed from a t-conorm in the definition of a revised fuzzy metric. Here, we restrict our study to the case of fuzzy metrics as they are defined by George-Veeramani, however, similar revision can be done also for some other approaches to the concept of a fuzzy metric.
A naïve way of looking at fuzzy sets
2016
In this study, we consider the concept of a predicate (P) in a universe of discourse X from a specific viewpoint, i.e., the informational viewpoint with respect to its linguistic use. Its meaning and its different types are considered, particularly by considering the predicates that are "measurable" and designate a "collective" (P) in X, which is not always a classical subset of X. We show that the collective P manifests itself in different "states" or fuzzy sets, where knowledge and representation depend on the available information regarding the use of the predicate P in X. We also analyze the linguistic concept of a "collective" where the fuzzy sets are nothing other than informational s…
Considerations Regarding the Industrial Implementation of Incremental Forming Process
2019
Incremental forming is a promising manufacturing process which allow the user to obtain sheet metal parts, in a flexible manner, without the use of a die. However, the industry is still reluctant to apply the process on an industrial scale. Several drawbacks of the process which hinder its industrial implementation are reviewed in the paper. Among them, the low accuracy of the parts and the low productivity of the process are considered. The lack of dedicated technological equipment and specific CAM software tools are also seen as major drawbacks. Moreover, the lack of any analytical tools to predict the plastic behaviour of the processed part and to predict the moment when it loses its int…
Forecasting portfolio returns using weighted fuzzy time series methods
2016
We propose using weighted fuzzy time series (FTS) methods to forecast the future performance of returns on portfolios. We model the uncertain parameters of the fuzzy portfolio selection models using a possibilistic interval-valued mean approach, and approximate the uncertain future return on a given portfolio by means of a trapezoidal fuzzy number. Introducing some modifications into the classical models of fuzzy time series, based on weighted operators, enables us to generate trapezoidal numbers as forecasts of the future performance of the portfolio returns. This fuzzy forecast makes it possible to approximate both the expected return and the risk of the investment through the value and a…
Optimal control of discrete-time interval type-2 fuzzy-model-based systems with D-stability constraint and control saturation
2016
This paper investigates the optimal control problem for discrete-time interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy systems with pole constraints. An IT2 fuzzy controller is characterized by two predefined functions, and the membership functions and the premise rules of the IT2 fuzzy controller can be chosen freely. The pole assignment is considered, which is constrained in a presented disk region. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient conditions of asymptotic stability with an H ∞ performance are obtained for the discrete-time IT2 fuzzy model based (FMB) system. Based on the criterion, the desired IT2 state-feedback controller is designed to guarantee that the closed-loop system is asymptotically s…
Modeling and control of uncertain nonlinear systems
2018
A survey of the methodologies associated with the modeling and control of uncertain nonlinear systems has been given due importance in this paper. The basic criteria that highlights the work is relied on the various patterns of techniques incorporated for the solutions of fuzzy equations that corresponds to fuzzy controllability subject. The solutions which are generated by these equations are considered to be the controllers. Currently, numerical techniques have come out as superior techniques in order to solve these types of problems. The implementation of neural networks technique is contributed in the complex way of dealing the appropriate coefficients and solutions of the fuzzy systems.
Adaptive Fuzzy Super-Twisting Sliding Mode Control for Microgyroscope
2019
This paper proposes a novel adaptive fuzzy super-twisting sliding mode control scheme for microgyroscopes with unknown model uncertainties and external disturbances. Firstly, an adaptive algorithm is used to estimate the unknown parameters and angular velocity of microgyroscopes. Secondly, in order to improve the performance of the system and the superiority of the super-twisting algorithm, this paper utilizes the universal approximation characteristic of the fuzzy system to approach the gain of the super-twisting sliding mode controller and identify the gain of the controller online, realizing the adaptive adjustment of the controller parameters. Simulation results verify the superiority a…
