Abstract

We present a methodology of learning fuzzy rules using an iterative genetic algorithm (GA). The approach incorporates a scheme of partitioning the entire solution space into individual subspaces. It then employs a mechanism to progressively relax or tighten the constraint. The relaxation or tightening of constraint guides the GA to the subspace for further iteration. The system referred to as the iterative GA learning module is useful for learning an efficient fuzzy control algorithm based on a predefined linguistic terms set. The overall approach was applied to learn a fuzzy algorithm for a water bath temperature control. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach in automating an industrial process.
