The design of a fuzzy system shell using a database approach

This study presented a prototype of fuzzy system shell called FuzzyAccess. Using Microsoft Access database as a developing tools, the proposed system provided a friendly interface for user self-building a fuzzy system. A novice who has no programming-knowledge can also self-define a new fuzzy project. The main contributions of the proposed system were that using SQL method to search the candidate rules in rule evaluation stage and providing an integrated tuning interface for system adjustment. The SQL method can significantly reduce the search time in rule evaluation. The integrated tuning interface can assist user quickly inspecting the influence among different system parameters adjustment and reducing the system development time.
