Method for parallel processing of fuzzy logic inference rules and corresponding circuit architecture with fuzzy inputs and outputs

摘要

A method and system for processing a plurality of fuzzy logic rules. The system includes a plurality of fuzzy logic lines, each fuzzy logic line corresponding to one of the fuzzy logic rules and including a calculating device. Each calculating device has an input terminal for receiving a series of weights and an output terminal for outputting an overall truth value according to the received series of weights and at least one logical operator of the fuzzy logic rule corresponding to the fuzzy logic line. The system further includes processing circuitry coupled to each fuzzy logic line, for receiving the overall truth value from each line, and outputting a fuzzy logic value according to the received overall truth values.
