AdaptiveNeuro-<strong>Fuzzy</strong>InferenceSystem<br />

(ANFIS) A technique for automatically tuning Sugeno-type inference<br />

systems based on training data.<br />

aggregation<br />

The combination of the consequents of each rule in a Mamdani fuzzy<br />

inference system in preparation for defuzzification.<br />

antecedent<br />

The initial (or “if”) part of a fuzzy rule.<br />

consequent<br />

The final (or “then”) part of a fuzzy rule.<br />

defuzzification<br />

The process of transforming a fuzzy output of a fuzzy inference system<br />

into a crisp output.<br />

degree of fulfillment<br />

See firing strength<br />

degree of membership<br />

The output of a membership function, this value is always limited to<br />

between 0 and 1. Also known as a membership value or membership<br />

grade.<br />

firing strength<br />

The degree to which the antecedent part of a fuzzy rule is satisfied.<br />

The firing strength may be the result of an AND or an OR operation,<br />

and it shapes the output function for the rule. Also known as degree of<br />

fulfillment.<br />

fuzzification<br />

The process of generating membership values for a fuzzy variable using<br />

membership functions.<br />
