Abstract

The structure of fuzzy models produced by a heursitic analysis of the problem domain is compared with that of models algorithmically generated from training data. The trade-offs between granularity, specificity, interpretability, and efficiency are examined for rule-bases produced in each of these manners. An algorithm that combines rule learning with region merging is introduced to incorporate beneficial features of both the heuristic and learning approaches to producing fuzzy models.
