Abstract

In this paper, an attempt is made to introduce a new defuzzification scheme to be used in case there are a number of clipped fuzzy sets in the output of a fuzzy system. Approximate reasoning with this defuzzification scheme is proposed. A number of defuzzification methods existing in literature are reviewed here. A comparative study with our method has been made. The results are illustrated with a DC shunt motor for better understanding.

This research has been partially supported by the UGC SAP (DRS) Phase-II programme of the Department of Mathematics, Visva-Bharati. Authors appreciate the financial support of the University Grants Commission.
