- A quick remark regarding fuzzy systems.
-
- If one doesn't need a plant model to use fuzzy logic how does
- one develop fuzzy rule sets/ test fuzzy rule sets and use a
- computer aid in generating the fuzzy rule sets?
-
- It appears that this is an important point. If I'm going to
- have a fuzzy Missle Guidence System and I need a plant model in
- order to automatically (aid) in generating a controller am I
- better off just using that model and standard state space
- analysis methods? You can't really do trial and error on such
- systems...
-
- If it is done purely by trial and error could similar results
- be had by "tuning" a PID controller (or several PID
- controllers).

- disclaimer: I hope I'm not sounding like I don't beleive fuzzy
- logic can develop controllers that work. This point has been
- made. I'm just trying to wade thru the marketing so I can
- understand the "big picture" a bit better.
