Abstract

We present a cascaded genetic algorithm which automatically generates high-performance fuzzy systems with a minimal number of fuzzy sets and rules. Such a tool is especially useful for complex systems which can no longer be designed and optimized manually. The cascade technique is tested on a fuzzy controller design task. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm yields considerably better results than a conventional genetic algorithm.
