This document discusses the advantages of using fuzzy logic in cognitive radio systems. Fuzzy logic is a form of artificial intelligence that can be used to help cognitive radios dynamically access spectrum in an intelligent manner. Fuzzy logic provides a simple way to map inputs like spectrum availability to outputs like which frequency band a radio can use. It allows for imprecise and uncertain inputs that are common in the radio environment. Fuzzy logic techniques can help cognitive radios learn about their environment and adapt transmissions with objectives of reliable communication, efficient spectrum utilization and minimal interference between users.

Nowadays, cities around the world intend to use information technology to improve the lives of their citizens.
Future smart cities will incorporate digital data and technology to interact differently with their human
inhabitants.
Among the key component of a smart city, we find the smart home component. It is an autonomic environment
that can provide various smart services by considering the user’s context information. Several methods are used
in context-aware system to provide such services. In this paper, we propose an approach to offer the most
relevant services to the user according to any significant change of his context environment. The proposed
approach is based on the use of context history information together with user profiling and machine learning
techniques. Experimentations show that the proposed solution can efficiently provide the most useful services to
the user in an intelligent home environment.

Software engineering is a field of engineering, for designing and writing programs for computers or other electronic devices. A software engineer, or programmer, writes software (or changes existing software) and compiles software using methods that make it better quality. Is the application of engineering to the design, development, implementation, testingand main tenance of software in a systematic method. Now a days the robotics are also plays an important role in present automation concepts. But we have several challenges in that robots when they are operated in some critical environments. Motion planning and task planning are two fundamental problems in robotics that have been addressed from different perspectives. For resolve this there are Temporal logic based approaches that automatically generate controllers have been shown to be useful for mission level planning of motion, surveillance and navigation, among others. These approaches critically rely on the validity of the environment models used for synthesis. Yet simplifying assumptions are inevitable to reduce complexity and provide mission-level guarantees; no plan can guarantee results in a model of a world in which everything can go wrong. In this paper, we show how our approach, which reduces reliance on a single model by introducing a stack of models, can endow systems with incremental guarantees based on increasingly strengthened assumptions, supporting graceful degradation when the environment does not behave as expected, and progressive enhancement when it does.

During the Anglo-Saxon period, women had nearly equal rights to men and more independence than in later periods. Women of higher social classes could own land and money, and choose their own husbands through negotiated marriages. While most women's roles centered around childrearing, household duties, and serving their husbands, wealthy women could take on supervisory roles over slaves or estates. Overall, Anglo-Saxon women had greater autonomy over marriage and property ownership than would be seen in later historical periods.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdf
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

The paper deals with distributed planning in a Mult
i-Agent System (MAS) constituted by several
intelligent agents each one has to interact with th
e other autonomous agents. The problem faced
is how to ensure a distributed planning through the
cooperation in our multi-agent system.
To do so, we propose the use of fuzzy logic to repr
esent the response of the agent in case of
interaction with the other. Finally, we use JADE p

During the Anglo-Saxon period, women had nearly equal rights to men and more independence than in later periods. Women of higher social classes could own land and money, and choose their own husbands through negotiated marriages. While most women's roles centered around childrearing, household duties, and serving their husbands, wealthy women could take on supervisory roles over slaves or estates. Overall, Anglo-Saxon women had greater autonomy over marriage and property ownership than would be seen in later historical periods.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

III. Problem Statement
This paper focuses on modeling and calculating trust between nodes in WSNs, based on sensed
continuous data to address security issues and deal with malicious and misbehavior nodes and for
assisting the decision–making process. A new trust model and a reputation system for WSNs can be
proposed. The trust model establishes the continuous version of the reputation system applied to
binary events and presents a new trust and reputation system for sensor Networks. This approach for
mixing of second hand information from neighboring nodes with directly observed information to
calculate trust between nodes in WSNs. Trust metrics can be used to evaluate the trust value of each
node in the clusters. Behaviors are monitored by monitoring node (MN). Monitoring node selected
at the next higher level of CH, this can also be changed dynamically along with CH. The main focus
of this paper is to develop a fuzzy theory based trust and reputation model for WSNs environment.

6.1 METHODOLOGY
In this paper we introduce an modern methodology for water treatment plant affecting factors
analysis. The proposed expert system manages and explores the knowledge in this specific
application by reasoning on a database of facts by means of suitable inference rules. The proposed
comprehensive, homogenous framework uses a set of Fuzzy Inference Systems to interpret,
standardize and fuse heterogeneous data in order to estimate normalized factors. The FIS for
affecting factor analysis is divided into four main components: the fuzzification, knowledge base,
Inference engine, and the Defuzzification.
Fuzzy logic controller has four components:
1) Fuzzification: It transforms input into suitable linguistic value so that can be compared to the rule
in rule base.
2) Knowledge Base: It contains the knowledge in form of a set of rules to control the artificial
system. It is the collection of rules. The basic function of rule base is to provide the required
information to fuzzification module, the rule base and the defuzzification module. 'If ' part is called
antecedent and 'then ' part is called consequent.
3) Inference Engine: If control rules are relevant then it decides the input to the plant. The Inference
system provides the mechanism for invoking or referring to the rule base such that the proper rules

The fuzzy logic controller is responsible for controlling the length of the green time according to the
traffic conditions. The state machine controls the sequence of states that the fuzzy traffic controller
should cycle through. There is one state for each phase of the traffic light. There is one default state
which takes place when no incoming traffic is detected. In the sequence of states, a state can be
skipped if there is no vehicle queues for the corresponding approach.
DESIGN CRITERIAAND CONSTRAINTS
In the development of the fuzzy traffic lights control system the following assumptions are made:
i) The junction is an isolated four–way junction with traffic coming from the north, west, south and
east directions. ii) When traffic from the north and south moves, traffic from the west and east stops
and vice versa. iii) No right and left turns are considered. iv) The fuzzy logic controller will observe
the density of the north and south traffic as one side and the west and east traffic as another side. v)
The East–West lane is assumed as the main approach.
Vi) The minimum and maximum time of green light is 2 seconds and 20 seconds respectively.

6.1. IMPORTANCE OF FUZZY LOGIC Fuzzy logic is all about the relative importance of
precision: use as Fuzzy Logic Toolbox software with MATLAB technical computing software as a
tool for solving problems with fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is a fascinating area of research because it
does a good job of trading off between significance and precision something that humans have been
managing for a very long time. In this sense, fuzzy logic is both old and new because, although the
modern and methodical science of fuzzy logic is still young, the concept of fuzzy logic relies on
age–old skills of human reasoning. Fig 6.1 Fuzzy Description 6.2. USAGE OF FUZZY LOGIC
Fuzzy logic is a convenient way to map an input space to an output space. Mapping input to output
is the starting point for everything. Consider the following examples:
With information about how good your service was at a restaurant, a fuzzy logic system can tell you
what the tip should be.
With your specification of how hot you want the water, a fuzzy logic system can adjust the faucet
valve to the right setting.
With information about how far away the subject of your photograph is, a fuzzy logic system can

20. Advantage Of Fuzzy Logic
Abstract: It is a well known widely accepted fact that the static spectrum allocation has led to the
under exploitation of the available frequency band. This problem can be mitigated by cognitive
radio technology. It is a concept which with its learning ability is aware about its environment and
intelligently adapts to it with objectives like reliable communication, efficient utilization of
spectrum and minimal or no interference among users.
Various techniques have been suggested in the research works to access the spectrum dynamically in
a cognitive radio environment. These techniques basically use the concepts of Artificial Intelligence.

Logic approaches ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Fuzzy logic is an attractive technique particularly in cases where target problems are difficult to
model with traditional mathematical models, but are easier to understand by human at the same time
With the characteristic of future cognitive radio in mind, the capability of fuzzy logic offer good
potential to be applied. Instead of using complicated mathematical formulations, fuzzy logic uses
human–understandable fuzzy sets and inference rules (e.g. IF, THEN, ELSE, AND, OR, NOT) to
obtain the solution that satisfies the desired system objectives. The main advantage of fuzzy logic is
its low complexity. Therefore, fuzzy logic is suitable for real–time cognitive radio applications in
which the response time is critical to system performance. A fuzzy logic control system can be used
to obtain the solution to a problem given imprecise, noisy, and incomplete input information. In
general, there are three major components in a fuzzy logic control system: fuzzifier, fuzzy logic
processor, and defuzzifier (Figure 4.4). While the fuzzifier is used to map the crisp inputs into fuzzy
sets, the fuzzy logic processor implements an inference engine to obtain the solution based on
predefined sets of rules. Then, the defuzzifier is applied to transform the solution to the crisp output.
Fuzzy logic is often used in decision making to select the best suited SU for spectrum access at a
given time. This technique when combined with neural networks is used in CR networks, multihop

From the above model we can make an overall idea about fuzzy logic system.Crisp input is dump
into the' Fuzzifier'..All those input should be defined as "set of input with different fuzzy ideas or
beliefs".All the input sets will be sent to Inference Engine which is connected with different fuzzy
rules which are nothing but some if–else statement.These if–else statement are used to define
different situations or conditions.So it is very obvious that we can impose different condition to the
fuzzy input sets.The main objective inference engine is matching the input data with different if else
statement and produce the fuzzy output.Next,all the sets of fuzzy output will be sent to the

applications need constant speed of a DC motor operation, such as paper mills, steel rolling
mill...etc. But the various loads were effected on speed of DC motor, fuzzy logic controller gives
better results in governing the speed control of SEDC motor, the paper used MATLAB/Simulink to
simulation DC motor with fuzzy logic controller. The controller used seven memberships. Lastly, it's
found that the fuzzy logic controller provided better results for improving the dynamic behavior of
SEDC motor.
Keywords: DC Motor, PID Controller, Fuzzy logic controller, Chopper.

28. Advantages Of Fuzzy Logic
In a narrow sense, fuzzy logic can be defined as a logical system, which is an expansion of multi–
valued logic. Whereas in a wider sense it is almost similar with fuzzy sets theory. It is a method for
computing based on "degrees of truth or fact" rather than the "true or false" (1 or 0). The idea of
fuzzy logic was first proposed by Dr. Lotfi Zadeh of the University of California at Berkeley in the
1965 [65].
4.1 FUZZY LOGIC SYSTEM
A fuzzy logic system (FLS) can be defined as the nonlinear mapping of an input data set to a scalar
output data [66]. It works like a way that human brain works. The data are get together and form a
number of partial facts or truths which are made aggregate further into higher level of truths. If these
truths crosses certain level of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Fuzzy logic is a more sensitive approach without the complexity.
2) Fuzzy logic is flexible: In any given system, it is easy to coat on more functionality without being
start from scratch.
3) Fuzzy logic is tolerable about inexact data: In the nature or in any experimental process
everything is inexact. Fuzzy logic is made tolerable about all these things.
4) Fuzzy logic is able to model nonlinear functions of random complexity: A fuzzy controller is able
to match any kind of input and output values. This process is made mainly easy by adaptive
techniques which are available in Fuzzy Logic Toolbox of MATLAB software like Adaptive Neuro–
Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS).
5) Fuzzy logic is based on general language: Fuzzy logic allows us to communicate with the system
using a common language of human like "If–then".

values based on a set of predefined MFs, where the degree of membership of each input pixel to a
fuzzy set is determined. Then, the fusion operators are applied to the fuzzified images. The fusion
results are then converted back into pixel values using defuzzification.

35. My Rice Cooker: The Favorite Food Of My Food
Out of all the grains that are so vital to a healthy diet, I have always enjoyed rice the most. The sight
of soft and fluffy freshly cooked rice is something that always evokes my appetite. My family has
rice based meals 4 to 5 times each week and my kids enjoy those the most. That is why I can call it
the favorite food of my family.
I have used four rice cookers previously and although none of them had been unpleasant, I was
unable to find anything that really satisfied me. I wanted a rice maker that was not just affordable
but also very efficient. Moreover, what I wanted to avoid the most were the numerous buttons with
confusing functions that can turn a promising gadget into something of a nuisance.

Amazing Capacity:
This rice machine by Zojirushi is an ideal choice for middle to small–sized families, or even single
people. Accommodating up to six cups of rice, I find it a real convenience. If guests are coming over
for dinner, you won't have to cook rice manually because this rice maker will take care of
everything.
Beautiful Colors:
Frankly speaking, it was the color that caught my attention the first time. Instead of the usual shades,
this ricecooker comes in excellent yellow, bringing some sunshine into your kitchen. Although it is
also available in white and metallic, I preferred yellow because of its uniqueness.
Non–Stick Interior:
Have you ever felt frustration of cleaning a rice cooker after use when the bottom layer of rice is
stuck to the cooking surface? If the answer is a yes, you are no exception. I had been experiencing
all the trouble myself, but now with a Zojirushi NS–XBC05YR, it is not a problem. It has a non–

operation. If the membership function covers poles values from 0 to 4 then the maximum value for
pole is 4 and the least value is 0 and same thing happens for the constants. Each unit reduces an
order of two to order of one. If a transfer function of higher order is needed to be reduced the
operation is repeated several times. For example an order 8 to 2 function reduction will reduce the 8
poles into 4 poles then the 4 new poles into the final 2 poles. E. Particle Swarm Technique
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is initialized with a group of random particles (solutions) and
then searches for optima by updating generations. In every iteration, each particle is updated by
following two "best" values. The first one is the best solution (fitness) each particle has achieved so
far, this value is called Pbest. Another "best" value that is tracked by the particle swarm optimizer is
the best value, obtained so far by any particle in the population. This best value is a global best and
called Gbest. Each particle consists of: Data representing a possible solution, a velocity value
indicating how much the Data can be changed, a personal best (Pbest) value indicating the closest

Some basic works have been done in the field of serpentine belt drives are researches on the
vibration characteristics of axially moving string. Beikmann et al., (1996) applied a mathematical
model to examine the transverse vibration and stability of coupled belt–tensioner systems.

48. Examples Of Contradictions In Fuzzy Logic
Contradictions in Fuzzy Logic
Kamp ([qtd. in Sauerland]) argue that it is absurd that p ∧ p has the same truth value as p ∧ ¬p if p is
0.5, and the latter statement cannot have a truth value of 0.5, becauses "how could a logical
contradiction be true to any degree?" (qtd. in Sauerland 187). Sauerland ([year]) however thinks that
this is not the case: if p contains a vague variable, the statement does not need to be a contradiction
to be intuitive, e.g. What I did was smart and not smart, or Bea is both tall and not tall are statements
which are contradictions, and they still make sense although they are vague (186). I agree that What
I did was smart and not smart makes sense in vagueness and fuzzy logic: this statement might be

The same holds for sentences like What I did was smart and not smart (cf. Sauerland ([citation?]),
but sentences like he is tall and not tall are different: in this case you cannot say that the person is
tall in some respects and not tall in other respects (except maybe when you argue that the person
turns out to be a child who is tall compared to other children but not tall compared to adults), but
more commonly you express an average height by this, which is between your personal crisp
boundaries of tall and not tall respectively. Still, both sentences He is nice and not nice and He is tall
and not tall are of the form p ∧ ¬p, and are not considered contradictions with a truth value of 0. But
if you consider He is nice and not nice as the person being nice and not nice in the same respect,
then of course the contradiction would be obviously present, in which case the truth value would
indeed be 0 (I do not think that you could interpret He is tall and not tall in a way such that its truth
degree would be 0): it would then be reasonable to interpret He is nice (in some respects) and not
nice (in other respects) as rather p ∧ ¬q than p ∧ ¬p, because the different contexts in which he is

PSO OPTIMIZED FLC FOR THE DESIGN OF LOAD FREQUENCY CONTROL
M. MAHAMMED JABEER
Associate Professor, Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering,
AVR & SVR Engineering College, Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh.
Abstract: Load frequency control problem is considered as one of the most important issues in the
design & operation of power systems. Due to lack of good efficiency in parameters variation
conditions, working conditions of system and non–linear factors, a simple PI controller is not
suitable in industrial applications. Instead, fuzzy controllers can be used in order to enhance the
performances of the systems. In this paper, the use of the optimized type–1 fuzzy logic controller
using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the load frequency control
problem. To the best of our knowledge, the PSO optimization of fuzzy type–1 controller in order to
solve load–frequency control problem, has not been investigated so far. The proposed controller has
good performance and is capable to solve the load–frequency control problem in conditions of wide
variations of system parameters and nonlinear factors such as generation rate constraint. Simulation
results show that the optimized fuzzy controller proposed in this paper exhibits better performance
compared to PI controller in damping of system deviations.
Key words: power system, load frequency control, type–1 fuzzy logic controller, PSO algorithm.

The choice is no longer just zero or one." Fuzzy logic allows for "fuzzy sets," which do not rigidly
follow a "yes or no" logic when attempting to determine the elements of such a set. Fuzzy sets can
include partial elements; elements that may or may not belong to the set depending on other
circumstances (Peterson). Because of this flexibility, fuzzy sets are used in soft computing, a process
engineers now use in many modern home appliances. Prior to the 1970's, fuzzy logic had not been
put into practical, real–world use. This changed when many Japanese manufacturers began to
implement simple fuzzy systems in their household products, leading to the vast amount of items
which make use of soft computing today (Zadeh).
To go back to a previous example, my washing machine determines which type of cycle to use
based on the weight of the clothing. A "small" load or a "medium" load is not rigidly defined, but the
fuzzy logic allows the washing machine to approximate the type of cycle it should use. An amount
of clothes on the cusp of both "small" and "medium" could be placed in either category, depending
on other variables such as fabric mix and the amount of detergent ("Fuzzy logic"). In this specific

In physics gravitation is the tendency of agent with object to accelerate towards each other. In the
Newtonian law each object attracts every other object by a gravitational force. Gravitational search
algorithm is one of the newest stochastic population based meta heuristic that has been inspired by
newtanion laws of gravity and motion. The algorithm is consisted of collection of searcher agents
that interact with each other through the gravity force. The agents are deliberated as objects and their
execution is measured by their masses. The gravity force induces a global motion where all objects
proceed towards other objects with heavier masses. The slow motion of heavier masses guarantees
the victimization step of the algorithm and corresponds to good solutions. The masses are actually
obeying the law of gravity as shown in Equation (3.1) and the law of motion in Equation (3.2).
F = G (M1M2 / R2) (3.1) a = F/M (2) (3.2)

64. The Induction Machine ( Im ) Essay
Electrical machines have gained a distinctive interest by experts because their advantages are
indisputable because of their ability to adapt to any environment and their efficient efficiency, thus
exceeding other non–electric actuators. The induction machine (IM) is currently the most widely
used electrical machine in both domestic and industrial applications. Its main advantage lies in its
simplicity of mechanical and electrical design (absence of rotor winding (cage machine) and
collector, simple structure, robust and easy to build .....). However, these advantages are
accompanied by a high degree of physical complexity, linked to the electromagnetic coupling
between the magnitudes of the stator and those of the rotor. This is why, for a long time, IM was
only used in constant speed drives.(El–kharashi and El–dessouki, 2014).
It is only after the revolution in electronics–computing and power electronics that the field of
variable speed drive by AC machines has grown tremendously. Especially since digital processors,
such as Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), which
specialize in driving electrical machines, have facilitated experimental implantation. It is not by
chance that the work on the IM is the subject of intense research in several fields, be it for the
synthesis of control laws, for the calculation and optimization of yield or for the development of a

66. Disadvantages Of Fuzzy Logic
Chapter 2
2.1 Fuzzy Logic Controller Fuzzy logic is a type of multi valued logic. It deals with approximate
reasoning rather than precise. Fuzzy logic derived from fuzzy set theory. Fuzzy logic was first
proposed by Lotfi Zadeh in 1965. Fuzzy logic has currently used in control theory, artificial
intelligence systems specially to control complex aircraft engines and control surfaces, helicopter
control, messile guidance, automatic transmission, wheel slip control, auto focus cameras and
washing machines, railway engines for smoother drive and fuel consumption and many industrial
processes. Fuzzy logic provide better results if we compared it with PID controller. Fuzzy set of
theory represent the human reasoning with knowledge that is almost impossible to represent in
quantitative measures or for that control plants that are hard to control or ill ... Show more content

Haman knowledge and experience can be implemented using linguistic rules.
Non linear plants can be controlled.
It can also control fast processes.
Disadvantages of fuzzy control–
Human knowledge is often incomplete and episodic as compared to systematic way.
If the model is not known then it is impossible to achieve the stability of the controller system.
Sometime rules are mismatched and non coherent.
In complex operation fuzzification and defuzzification take long time.

68. Fuzzy Logic: The Principles Of Fuzzy Logic Control System
4. FUZZY LOGIC CONTROLLER
4.1 Introduction
Fuzzy Logic provides a completely different approach. One can concentrate on solving the problem
rather than trying to model the system mathematically, if that is even possible. This almost
invariably leads to quicker, cheaper solutions. Once understood, this technology is not difficult to
implement and the results are usually quite surprising and more than satisfactory.
Fuzzy logic is a complex mathematical method that allows solving difficult simulated problems with
many inputs and output variables. Fuzzy logic is able to give results in the form of recommendation
for a specific interval of output state, so it is essential that this mathematical method is strictly
distinguished from the more familiar logics, such as Boolean algebra. This paper contains a basic
overview of the principles of fuzzy logic.
4.2 Fuzzy Logic Control System
Fuzzy logic allows to lower complexity by allowing the use of imperfect information in sensible
way. It can be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both. In other words, fuzzy
logic approach to problems' control mimics how a person would make decisions, only much faster.

For example, speed can be represented by value 5 m/s or by description "slow". Term "slow" can
have different meaning if used by different persons and must be interpreted with respect to the
observed environment. Some values are easy to classify, while others can be difficult to determine
because of human understanding of different situations. One can say "slow", while other can say
"not fast" when describing the same speed. These differences can be distinguished with help of so–
called fuzzy sets. Usually fuzzy logic control system is created from four major elements

Mind and Machine: The Essay Technology has traditionally evolved as the result of human needs.
Invention, when prized and rewarded, will invariably rise–up to meet the free market demands of
society. It is in this realm that Artificial Intelligence research and the resultant expert systems have
been forged. Much of the material that relates to the field of Artificial Intelligence deals with human
psychology and the nature of consciousness. Exhaustive debate on consciousness and the
possibilities of consciousnessness in machines has adequately, in my opinion, revealed that it is most
unlikely that we will ever converse or interract with a machine of artificial consciousness. In John
Searle's collection of lectures, Minds, Brains and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Proposition four is where the ends will meet the means. It purports that when we are able to finally
understand the brain, we will be able to duplicate its functions. Thus, if we replicate the
computational power of the mind, we will then understand it. Through argument and
experimentation, Searle is able to refute or severely diminish these propositions. Searle argues that
machines may well be able to "understand" syntax, but not the semantics, or meaning
communicated thereby. Esentially, he makes his point by citing the famous "Chinese Room
Thought Experiment." It is here he demonstrates that a "computer" (a non–chinese
speaker, a book of rules and the chinese symbols) can fool a native speaker, but have no idea what
he is saying. By proving that entities don't have to understand what they are processing to appear as
understanding refutes proposition one. Proposition two is refuted by the simple fact that there are no
artificial minds or mind–like devices. Proposition two is thus a matter of science fiction rather than a
plausible theory A good chess program, like my (as yet undefeated) Chessmaster 4000 Trubo refutes
proposition three by passing a Turing test. It appears to be intelligent, but I know it beats me through
number crunching and symbol manipulation. The Chessmaster 4000 example is also an adequate
refutation of Professor Simon's fourth proposition: "you can understand a process if you can

74. Fuzzy Systems Essay
Preface
This article is written for an intended audience of undergraduate or graduate students, this article
provides an introduction to, and an overview of what fuzzy systems are. Presented in this article is
an acknowledgment of the contributions that fuzzy systems are making to the Artificial Intelligence
discipline, as well as examples of fuzzy systems which are in use today.
Abstract
The concept and implementation of fuzzy systems is part of the natural course of evolution for
humans who are a part of a society where access to information is plentiful but efficient utilization
of massive amounts of information is power. To get at the information, we need systems which can
understand what we need, rather than for us to understand ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

The origin of fuzzy systems can be traced to the first introduction of formal logic by Aristotle. Logic
introduced by Aristotle was considered to be bilevel logic of either true or false, and is
acknowledged to be the foundation of most of the growth of the sciences which are known today.[1]
However, it was Plato who is accredited with laying the actual foundations for fuzzy logic when he
proposed that there exists a third area beyond true and false where things were not always true or
always false.[3]
Digital computers in use today are based upon the ideas of Aristotle, where a single bit of
information found in a computer is considered either true or false, that the transistor gate is either
turned on or off. Many fundamental aspects of society today are based upon concepts of right or
wrong, innocent or guilty, a member of a group or not a member of some group.
The human race has toyed with and enjoyed the concept of a perfect society, where everything was
easily classified into good or bad, right or wrong, true or false and has created computers to respond
to that type of idealistic and simplistic world. This philosophy has served the human race well as
computers were created to operate in very predictable ways that were

76. Haack On Fuzzy Logic Essay
Haack On Fuzzy Logic
ABSTRACT: Much of the progress in modern logic beyond Aristotle is due to the invention of a
precise and powerful formalism, and this is why Haack is reluctant to weaken it. What motivates her
to regard deviant and fuzzy logic as extensions rather than rivals of classical logic is its
demonstrated capacity for refinement and progress. Thus she sharply distinguishes between a logic
dealing with fuzzy concepts (she accepts), and one which is itself fuzzy, i.e., where "true" and
"false" cease to be precise concepts (she rejects). While it is often more convenient to retain as much
as possible of classical logic because of its simplicity and familiarity, there is nothing in the
hermeneutical view of logic to render it ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
If however fuzzy logic is taken to be, as Zadeh and his followers claim, a rival theory, fuzzy
technology is irrelevant to its philosophical bona fides. (2) The idea is to accommodate vagueness
within the framework of classical logic by means of a non–classical semantics in which vague
evidence counts as true just in case it would be true for all the ways of making it precise.
After explaining how radically fuzzy logic departs not only from classical logic, but also from the
classical conception of what logic is and does, Haack criticizes fuzzy logic for its methodological
extravagances and its linguistic inconsistencies. She argues that despite the considerable new
complexities it introduces, fuzzy logic does not avoid but actually requires the imposition of
artificial precision – the very fault for which Zadeh blames classical logic. She also points out that
the linguistic evidence does not support the main contention motivating fuzzy logic that "true" and
"false" like "bald" and "tall" are predicates of degree. Linguistic, metaphysical, and methodological
considerations all speak against degrees of truth. (3) Haack concludes that fuzzy logic is not a viable
competitor of classical logic. A process of weighted averaging "defuzzifies" – Carnap and Haack
might say, "precisifies" –

PRELIMINARIES
This section expands a brief explanation of the basic frame–work of the principal component
analysis and fuzzy logic, along with some of the key basic concepts.
A. The principal component analysis (PCA)
The Principal component analysis (PCA) is an essential technique in data compression and feature
reduction [13] and it is a statistical technique applied to reduce a set of correlated variables to
smaller uncorrelated variables to each other. PCA is considered as special transformation which
produces the principal components (PCs) Known as eigenvectors. PCs are sorted decreasing i.e. the
first prin–cipal component (PC
1
) has largest of the variance. That is meanvar(PC1 );var(PC2
);var(PC3
);var(PCp
), where var(PCi ) ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

p), where var(PC i ) expresses the variance of(PC i ) [14]. The PCA has characteristics and ability to
reduce redundancy and uncertainty. So this paper used the PCA as the preprocessing step on the
multispectral images to reduce the redundancy information and focus on the component; that have a
significant impact on the data.
B. Fuzzy logic
Zadeh [15] introduced the concept of fuzzy logic to present vagueness in linguistics, and to
implement and express human knowledge and inference capability in a natural way. The fuzzy logic
starts with the concept of fuzzy sets which is defined as a set without a crisp. It is clearly defined
boundary and can contain elements with only a partial degree of member–ship.The main power of
fuzzy logic image processing is in the middle step (membership function) [16] A membership
function defines how each value in the input space is mapped to a membership value (or degree of
membership) between the range of 0 and 1. LetXbe the input space andxbe a generic element ofX. A

ABSTRACT: –– In this a fuzzy logic control technique has been proposed for power quality
improvement by using UPQC The UPQC is controlled to regulate the WF terminal voltage, and to
mitigate voltage fluctuations at the point of common coupling (PCC), caused by system load
changes and pulsating WF generated power, respectively. In order to reduce the voltage fluctuations
that may cause flicker, and improve WF terminal voltage regulation, several solutions have been
posed. The voltage regulation at WF terminal is conducted using the UPQC series converter, by
voltage injection in phase with PCC voltage. On the other hand, the shunt converter is used to
filter the WF generated power to prevent voltage fluctuations, requiring active and reactive power
handling capability. The sharing of active power between converters is managed through the
common DC link. A customized internal fuzzy logic control scheme of the UPQC device was
developed to regulate the voltage in the WF terminals, and to mitigate voltage fluctuations at grid
side. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed compensation strategy for the
enhancement of Power Quality.
