Performance Optimization of the Fuzzy Rule Interpolation Method "FIVE"
Fuzzy Rule Interpolation (FRI) methods are efficient structures for knowledge-representation with relatively few rules. In spite of their good knowledge representation efficiency, their high computational demand makes the FRI methods hardly suitable for embedded real-time applications, for which short reasoning time has a high importance. On the other hand, the fact that currently available devices have increased computational power gives the FRI methods an opportunity to appear in real-time embedded applications. Therefore, the need for a low-computation and lowresource-demand FRI method is emerging. The goal of this paper is to introduce some implementation details of such an FRI method, together with its brief time and space complexity analysis. The paper also gives some hints for further performance optimization possibilities.
