Abstract

This paper introduces the idea of viewing fuzzy modelling and fuzzy system design from a functional analysis perspective. Fuzzy transforms, which are based on the generalised Fourier transform in functional analysis, are proposed. It is demonstrated that mathematically a T-S fuzzy model is equivalent to a fuzzy transform. Hence the parameters of a T-S fuzzy system can be identified by solving equations constructed using the inner product between membership functions and a given target function. The functional point of view leads to an insight into the behaviour of a fuzzy system. It provides a theoretical basis for exploring improvements to the efficiency of T-S fuzzy modelling.
