Design and applications of fuzzy and neural controllers

Controllers and control algorithms are important elements of systems,providing trouble-free operations. Implementing different control strategies mayhave different effects on systems. While PID controllers are widely used, Fuzzy andNeural controllers are still drawing attention. In the thesis, Fuzzy and Neuralcontrollers are realized and the reactions of the system to the controllers areinvestigated. Several case studies are conducted to show the viability of controllerdesigns and comparison of them.A C++ implementation of a fuzzy controller is prepared to use in real timeapplications. The use of this code in applications and the adaptation for differentcontrollers are explained.Keywords: Fuzzy Logic Controller, Neural Controller
