Abstract :
We propose an approach to the design and tuning of fuzzy rules for automatic classification decision making. This approach is based upon the finding of the weights of fuzzy if-then rules and the shapes of membership functions that minimize the difference between real (desired) and inferred (theoretical) classes of decisions. The problem of fuzzy model tuning is stated as a classical mathematical optimization problem
