“…The fuzzy sliding surface (Kim & Lee, 1995;Tzafestas & Rigators, 1999) can be used to reduce the number of fuzzy rule so that an one-dimensional fuzzy rule base is established instead of a two-dimensional one. The self-organizing learning mechanism (Park, Moon, & Lee, 1995;Procyk & Mamdani, 1979;Zhang & Edmunds, 1992) is employed to modify fuzzy rules on-line. Moreover, to reduce unnecessary trial-and-error, the model-matching technique is adopted to adjust scaling factors.…”
