Abstract

A fuzzy logic controller is compiled into values in a look-up table such that the table may be used for adjusting a process dependent upon the state variables. The look-up table may be generated by use of a Mean of Maxima (MOM) technique for defuzzification. Alternately, an approximate Height Method (HM) may be used to provide defuzzification. The MOM and HM techniques allow fuzzy logic control without executing any rules in run-time. A further alternative uses an exact height method and minimizes the number of rules which are executed in run time.
