00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:22.440
Now Let’s  go a little deeper applying Fuzzy Set Theory to Fuzzy Logic Controller.

00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:31.200
It can be seen here, the fuzz logic controller is constructed of three parts.

00:00:32.220 --> 00:00:37.480
They are “Fuzzifier”, “Inference Engine” and “Defuzzifier”.

00:00:38.680 --> 00:00:44.000
When a crisp input goes into the fuzzy logic controller,

00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:54.320
it is firstly mapped to fuzzy set to determine the membership degrees of fuzzy sets by the fuzzier.

00:00:55.420 --> 00:01:02.620
Then, it goes to “inference engine” where the experts’ knowledge is placed.

00:01:03.220 --> 00:01:10.500
The  experts’ knowledge  is described by the fuzzy rules that are if-then rules.

00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:13.920
Finally, through Defuzzifier,

00:01:15.180 --> 00:01:19.480
a crisp command is made to control the plant.

00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:24.420
Maybe the fuzzy logic controller is still fuzzy for you.

00:01:24.820 --> 00:01:28.000
So I am going to show an design example

00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:33.740
to help you to understand fuzzy logic controller more clearly.

00:01:34.420 --> 00:01:39.360
The purpose of the example is to design the fuzzy controller

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:46.880
to control the air-conditioner such that the room temperature maintain suitable.

00:01:47.380 --> 00:01:51.900
The input of the fuzzy controller is the room temperature.

00:01:52.700 --> 00:01:59.920
The output of the fuzzy controller is the Command of Heating, Maintaining or Cooling.

00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:04.240
At first, we have to design the fuzzifier.

00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:08.260
We use the fuzzy sets shown in this figure.

00:02:09.020 --> 00:02:13.200
Assume that the room temperature is 21 degree.

00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:20.320
Hence the membership degree in cold is 0.75

00:02:20.880 --> 00:02:24.800
and in suitable is 0.25.

00:02:25.420 --> 00:02:28.460
Then we can go to the Inference Engine.

00:02:28.920 --> 00:02:35.560
The inference engine is where the Experts’ experience placed.

00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:41.640
We can easily complete the fuzzy rules in the inference engine.

00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:49.440
Rule 1: If the room temperature is Hot, then take the action of Cooling.

00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:51.020
Rule 2

00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:54.560
If the room temperature is Comfortable,

00:02:55.260 --> 00:02:58.080
then take the action of Maintaining.

00:02:58.860 --> 00:02:59.660
Rule 3

00:03:00.540 --> 00:03:03.520
If the room temperature is Cold,

00:03:03.980 --> 00:03:06.860
then take the action of Heating.

00:03:07.980 --> 00:03:10.800
Finally Defuzzifier can determine:

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:17.980
What percent of effort it would take to heat up the room temperature.

00:03:18.900 --> 00:03:24.520
What percent of effort it would take to cool down the room temperature.

00:03:24.980 --> 00:03:27.880
or To maintain the room temperature.

00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:32.780
In the case of 21 degree room temperature,

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:41.400
the membership degree in cold is 0.75 and in suitable is 0.25.

00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.300
According to rule 2 and rule 3,

00:03:45.580 --> 00:03:47.820
the fuzzy logic controller

00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:54.760
will give a command of heating at 75 percent effort.

00:03:55.300 --> 00:04:02.780
Finally we can see some Applications of Fuzzy Set Theory and Fuzzy Logic Controller.

00:04:03.740 --> 00:04:08.260
The fuzzy set theory can be used for clustering.

00:04:08.660 --> 00:04:12.800
This is a grey scale image of human brain.

00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:22.200
We can use fuzzy clustering approach for image segmentation to help doctors diagnose.

00:04:22.780 --> 00:04:29.100
The fuzzy logic controller can be used to automatic control systems,

00:04:29.580 --> 00:04:30.480
for example,

00:04:30.860 --> 00:04:33.320
autonomous vehicle systems.

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:38.280
Also we can use the concept of Fuzzy Set Theory

00:04:38.740 --> 00:04:48.160
to help us make decision in various areas such as in finance and management.
