document: Action aggregation and defuzzification in Mamdani-type fuzzy systems Discusses the issues of action aggregation and defuzzification in Mamdani-type fuzzy systems . The paper highlights the shortcomings of defuzzification techniques associated with the customary interpretation of the sentence connective ` and ' by means of the set union operation . These include loss of smoothness of the output characteristic and inaccurate mapping of the fuzzy response . The most appropriate procedure for aggregating the outputs of different fuzzy rules and converting them into crisp signals is then suggested . The advantages in terms of increased transparency and mapping accuracy of the fuzzy response are demonstrated
