When fuzzy systems where introduced in 1965 by L.A. Zadeh, his aim was to model or to describe the human way of handling and controlling the system instead of modelling the technical system itself. While fuzzy systems were considered as an exotic topic until the mid-eighties, successful technical and industrial applications started to increase the interest in fuzzy systems drastically in the beginning of the nineties. Since then, the application of fuzzy systems has become a normal routine in many fields.
However, during the last ten years a shift in interest can be noticed. While the so-called Computing with Words paradigm mainly addresses the problem of collecting and formalizing (a part of) known human expert knowledge, it turned out that tuning fuzzy systems on the basis of available process data was essential for many applications. Therefore, fine tuning techniques and adaptivity have been introduced into fuzzy systems. Research as well as applications have even gone one step further from pure tuning to actually extracting rules and knowledge from data in terms of fuzzy rules.
Scope of the workshop:The workshop will be devoted mainly, but not exclusively, to this shift in paradigm: From modelling systems/human knowledge to learning techniques and extracting knowledge from data with applications in control, modelling and other areas. The workshop will bring together experts who work in the field of 'classical' fuzzy systems modelling as well as researchers who concentrate on learning strategies. Work from related areas in soft computing like neuro/neuro-fuzzy systems, combinations with evolutionary algorithms and machine learning techniques are also welcome.
The workshop is jointly organised by the GI interest group on Fuzzy Systems and Soft Computing and the GMA (VDI-VDE Society for Measurement and Control) Working Group on Fuzzy Systems and Soft Computing. It is intended to collect selected papers for publication in a special issue of the journal Mathware and Soft Computing.
