abstract = { Fuzzy logic has been successfully applied in various fields.
However, as fuzzy controllers increase in size and complexity, the
number of control rules increases exponentially and real-time
behavior becomes more difficult. This thesis introduces an
any-time fuzzy controller. Much work has been done to optimize and
speed up a controlling process, however none of the existing
solutions provides an any-time behavior. This study first
introduces several constraints that should be satisfied in order
to guarantee an any-time behavior. These constraints are related
to aggregation and defuzzification phases of fuzzy control.
Popular aggregation (max-min, sum-product) and defuzzification methods (mean-of-maxima (MOM) and center-of-gravity (COG)) are first shown to satisfy these
constraints, and then three linearization methods are presented.
Linearization methods are used to reorder fuzzy rule-bases such
that a reordered rule-base would result in any-time behavior.
Finally, several approximation methods are described, that do not
break any-time behavior, while causing the intermediate result of
an any-time controller to come closer to the final (full
calculation) result in a shorter time. The exact influence of the approximation methods should be further researched.},
