Abstract :
An additive fuzzy system can approximate any continuous function on a compact domain to any degree of accuracy. Fuzzy systems are dense in the space of continuous functions. The fuzzy system approximates the function by covering its graph with fuzzy patches in the input-output state space. Each fuzzy rule defines a fuzzy patch and connects common-sense knowledge with state-space geometry. Neural or statistical clustering algorithms can approximate the unknown fuzzy patches and generate fuzzy systems from training data
