Abstract

This paper deals with a fuzzy modeling of comfort perception. The aim of the presented sensor is to reproduce the linguistic evaluation provided by a human being from the aggregation of the relevant physical measurements such as temperature, humidity, luminosity. The fuzzy symbolic method proposed enables to introduce easily new measurements in order to refine the comfort definition in a way adapted to the application considered. The graphical interface developed allows an user-friendly configuration of the intelligent sensor realized
