Abstract

Recently, Fuzzy Grey Cognitive Maps (FGCM) has been proposed as a Grey System theory-based FCM extension. Grey systems have become a very effective theory for solving problems within environments with high uncertainty, under discrete small and incomplete data sets. The benefits of FGCMs over conventional FCMs make evident the significance of developing a greyness-based cognitive model such as FGCM. In this chapter, the FGCM model and the proposed NHL learning algorithm were applied within an industrial problem, concerning a chemical process control process with two tanks, three valves, one heating element and two thermometers for each tank. The proposed mathematical formulation of FGCMs and the implementation of the NHL algorithm have been successfully applied. This type of learning rule accompanied with the good knowledge of the given system, guarantee the successful implementation of the proposed technique in industrial process control problems.
