摘要

PCT No. PCT/DE94/01059 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 19, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 19, 1996 PCT Filed Sep. 14, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/08796 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 30, 1995In a process an apparatus for operating a fuzzy inference processor in which it is verified, in sequence for each input variable, whether the conditions of a number of rules are fulfilled, and in which for one input variable in each case only those conditions of rules are verified whose conditions for the preceding input variable had been met in the method and apparatus a screening device having an address memory, an address formation unit and a device control signal former operate in combination for detecting rule segment values which continue to be relevant, thereby achieving the advantage of rapid rule evaluation.
