Abstract :
Our reconfigurable fuzzy processor (RFP) implements both aggregative and referential operations. Its architecture combines structural and parametric flexibility in a network implementing RFPs as a collection of fuzzy neurons. A fuzzy neural network using a bidirectionally linked series of shared buses facilitates a modular and scalable design environment for the RFP. An appropriate interface, separate from the RFP neuron itself, promotes the reuse of the neuron design with alternative interconnection networks
