Title: Effective Development of Fuzzy-Logic Rules for Real-Time Control
		  of Autonomous Vehicles
		   
Authors: S.K. Tso and Y.H. Fung 
			
Abstract:  The design of the fuzzy rules for fuzzy-logic controllers
influences the ultimate performance of real-time control systems. In
general, different sets of fuzzy rules are formed according to the
designers' heuristic thinking, knowledge, or experience about the
system. It would be difficult for others to modify the rules so formed
unless the process of capturing the original knowledge and experience
can be systematically described. This paper proposes a direct and
effective method to obtain an initial set of fuzzy rules from expert
knowledge for designing linear controllers of autonomous vehicles, and
to refine the rules to yield high-performance nonlinear controllers.
The design considerations and performance achieved are discussed. The
fuzzy-logic controller is able to cope effectively with uncertainties
in practical situations.
