Co-Evolution of Fuzzy Controller for the Mobile Robot Control

摘要

In this paper, we design the fuzzy rules using a modified Nash Genetic Algorithm. Fuzzy rules consist of antecedents and consequents. Because this paper uses the simplified method of Sugeno for the fuzzy inference engine, consequents have not membership functions but constants. Therefore, each fuzzy rule in this paper consists of a membership function in the antecedent and a constant value in the consequent. The main problem in fuzzy systems is how to design the fuzzy rule base. Modified Nash GA coevolves membership functions and parameters in consequents of fuzzy rules. We demonstrate this co-evolutionary algorithm and apply to the design of the fuzzy controller for a mobile robot. From the result of simulation, we compare modified Nash GA with the other co-evolution algorithms and verify the efficacy of this algorithm.
