Abstract

The development of a novel soft computing approach to model the supervisor of manufacturing systems is described, it is named Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) and it is used to model the behaviour of complex systems. Fuzzy cognitive maps combine characteristics of both fuzzy logic and neural networks. The description and the construction of fuzzy cognitive maps are examined, a new methodology for developing fuzzy cognitive maps is proposed here and as an example the fuzzy cognitive map for a simple plant is developed. A hierarchical two-level structure for supervision of manufacturing systems is presented, where the supervisor is modelled as a fuzzy cognitive map. The fuzzy cognitive map model for the failure diagnosis part of the supervisor for a simple chemical process is constructed.
