• A CAD approach to simplify fuzzy system descriptions 

      Baturone, Iluminada; Moreno-Velo, Francisco J.; Gersnoviez, Andrés (IEEE, 2006)
      Simplification is an important step in the design of a fuzzy system since the membership functions that represent the fuzzy sets as well as the 'if-then' rules that relate them usually contain redundant information. This ...
    • A simple neuro-fuzzy controller for car-like robot navigation avoiding obstacles 

      Baturone, Iluminada; Gersnoviez, Andrés (IEEE, 2007)
      This paper describes how the combination of neuro-fuzzy techniques with geometric analysis offers a good trade-off between purely heuristics and purely physical approaches when solving the problem of car-like robot navigation. ...
    • An automated design flow from linguistic models to piecewise polynomial digital circuits 

      Baturone, Iluminada; Sánchez-Solano, Santiago; Gersnoviez, Andrés; Brox-Jiménez, María (IEEE, 2010)
      This paper describes how the different CAD tools of the environment Xfuzzy 3, developed in Microelectronics Institute of Seville and University of Seville, allow to translate expressive linguistic models into mathematical ...
    • Automatic extraction of linguistic models for image description 

      Baturone, Iluminada; Gersnoviez, Andrés (IEEE, 2010)
      This paper describes a methodology to extract fuzzy models that describe linguistically the low-level features of an image (such as color, texture, etc.). The methodology combines grid-based algorithms with clustering and ...
    • FPGA implementation of embedded fuzzy controllers for robotic applications 

      Brox-Jiménez, María; Moreno-Velo, Francisco J.; Baturone, Iluminada; Cabrera, Alejandro J.; Sánchez-Solano, Santiago (IEEE, 2007)
      Fuzzy-logic-based inference techniques provide efficient solutions for control problems in classical and emerging applications. However, the lack of specific design tools and systematic approaches for hardware implementation ...
    • Hierarchical fuzzy controllers for explicit MPC control laws: adaptive cruise control example 

      Gersnoviez, Andrés; Brox-Jiménez, María; Baturone, Iluminada (IEEE, 2020)
      This paper presents a methodology to approximate explicit Model Predictive Control (MPC) laws by hierarchical fuzzy systems, particularly piecewise-affine hierarchical (PWAH) systems. These hierarchical controllers provide ...
    • High-speed and low-cost implementation of explicit model predictive controllers 

      Gersnoviez, Andrés; Brox-Jiménez, María; Baturone, Iluminada (IEEE, 2017)
      This paper presents a new form of piecewise-affine (PWA) solution, referred to as PWA hierarchical (PWAH), to approximate the explicit model predictive control (MPC) law, achieving a very rapid control response with the ...
