Abstract

The design of two dedicated architectures for real-time fuzzy inference are proposed and discussed. The first is designed for versatility, being able to handle fuzzy logic controller implementations with arbitrary size parameters. The second is a highly parallel structure, based on a scheme for the reduction of complexity of the fuzzy inference algorithm. The bottleneck of the defuzzification process is overcome by a proposed method for parallel calculation.
