Type-2 Fuzzy Sets: Geometric Defuzzification and Type-Reduction
This paper presents the geometric defuzzifier for generalised type-2 fuzzy sets. This defuzzifier can be executed in real-time and can therefore be applied to control and other rea...

Realized through a Marriage with Modular-Networks
Abstract— This paper presents a new development of selforganizing maps (SOM), realized by combining them with the idea of a modular network. This we called a modular network SOM ...
