Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Session at WCCI2008

Robert John rij@dmu.ac.uk — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 00:00:00 GMT

Special Session on Advances in Type-2 Fuzzy Systems at the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ IEEE 2008), June 2008, Hong Kong.

The aim of this special session is to present top quality research in the area of theory and applications of type-2 fuzzy logic. The session will also provide a forum for the academic community and industry to report on the recent advances on the type-2 fuzzy logic theory and applications in the various domains of type-2 fuzzy logic.

Topics include, but are not limited by:

Type-2 Theoretical Aspects

Representations of type-2 fuzzy sets
Inferencing
Relations
Type-reduction
Defuzzification
Knowledge Representation
Relationships to Rough sets
Relationships to Intuitionistic fuzzy sets

Type-2 Applications

Robotics
Control
Decision Making
Classification
Modelling
Computing with words
Any other application area that deploys type-2 fuzzy logic

The papers have to follow the submission guidelines for FUZZ-IEEE 2008 available at http://www.wcci2008.org/submission.htm and authors need to select the session name (FS01) as their main topic when submitting their papers.

Session Organisers Professor Hani Hagras, Professor Bob John, Professor Jerry Mendel

Special Session on Type-2 at FUZZ-IEEE 2007

Simon Coupland and Jerry Mendel are organising a special session on type-2 fuzzy logic theory at FUZZ-IEEE 2007. The conference will be held at Imperial College, London, UK on 23rd-26th July 2007. See http://www.fuzzieee2007.org/ for more details.

IEEE-CIS Host Type-2 Standard

Simon Coupland simonc@dmu.ac.uk — Tue, 12 Sep 2006 00:00:00 GMT

The IEEE Computational Intelligence Society are hosting the "standard" material for type-2 interval fuzzy logic: This standard consists of background material about interval type-2 fuzzy sets, interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems (IT2 FLSs), type-reduction and defuzzification in an IT2 FLS, and an IT2 FLS that does not use type-reduction. We give all authors permission to use any or all of this material in their articles, as long as they reference this standard. This material can be found at http://ieee-cis.org/standards/ and is mirrored at http://www.type2fuzzylogic.org/standard/

Type-2 Authors Win Awards at FUZZ-IEEE 2006

Simon Coupland simonc@dmu.ac.uk — Tue, 25 Jul 2006 00:00:00 GMT

For the second year running Authors in the field of type-2 fuzzy logic have won awards at the prestigious IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems. Chris Lynch (University of Essex, UK) won the best student paper award for his paper entitled �Using Uncertainty Bounds in the Design of an Embedded Real-Time Type-2 Neuro-Fuzzy Speed Controller for Marine Diesel Engines�. A second award for the best poster was won by Woei Wan Tan (National University of Singapore). The poster was based on Dr Tan�s paper entitled �On-line Learning Rules For Type-2 Fuzzy Controller�.

Type-2 Special Session at IPMU 2006

Simon Coupland simonc@dmu.ac.uk — Thu, 17 Nov 2005 00:00:00 GMT

Prof. Jerry Mendel and Prof. Robert John are organising a special session on type-2 fuzzy logic at IPMU 2006.The IPMU Conference is organized every two years with the focus of bringing together scientists working on methods for the management of uncertainty and aggregation of information in intelligent systems. The conference provides a medium for the exchange of ideas between theoreticians and practitioners in these and related areas.
The 2006 conference will take place between the 2nd and 7th of July at Universite Pierre et Marie Curie / Universite Rene Descartes in Paris, France. The deadline for paper submission is the 10th of December.
