Abstract

There are many papers in the literature that deal with the problem of the design of a fuzzy system from a set of given training examples. Those who get the best approximation accuracy are based on TSK fuzzy rules, which have the problem of not being as interpretable as Mamdany-type Fuzzy Systems. A question now is posed: How can the interpretability of the generated fuzzy rule-table base be increased? A possible response is to try to reduce the rule-base size by generalizing fuzzy-rules consequents which are symbolic functions instead of fixed scalar values or polynomials, and apply symbolic interpolations techniques in fuzzy system generation. A first approximation to this idea is presented in this paper for 1-D functions.
