Abstract
A processor operating in a fizzy logic's mode and including a fuzzyfication unit receiving a plurality of input variables on its input and being adapted to compute a membership value of such variables in a membership function, a processing unit connected downstream of the fuzzyfication unit to produce a fuzzy set, i.e. the results of fuzzy logic inference operations performed on the plurality of variables, and a defuzzyfication unit operative to translate the inference results into a so-called crisp value. The processor further includes a first memory device connected to the fuzzyfication unit and containing the set of membership functions, a second memory device connected to the defuzzyfication unit and containing the set of crisp value which appear in the THEN part of the fizzy rules, and a further memory device connected to the defuzzyfication unit.
