Installation

PyIT2FLS can be installed by unzipping the source code in a directory and using this command inside the PyIT2FLS folder:

(sudo) pip3 install .

Or you can use pip3:

(sudo) pip3 install --upgrade pyit2fls

Versions

Features coming up in the next version

Supporting machine learning models based on fuzzy systems.
- T1TSK (Almost done!)
- T1Mamdani
- IT2TSK
- IT2Mamdani
Enhancing the documentations and publishing it over readthedocs.
Exception handling.
Supporting Generalized Type 2 Fuzzy Sets and Systems.

Some notes on version 0.7.9

Some bugs (concerning EIASC algorithm) have been fixed in this version.

Some notes on version 0.7.8

Some bugs have been fixed in this version.

Some notes on version 0.7.0-0.7.7

Supporting fuzzy matrices and related operators.
Faster IT2 FLS evaluation (Please visit typereduction package).
Introduction of emphasize function for both type 1 and interval type 2 fuzzy sets (See 16th example).
New options while calling plot functions (T1FS.plot, IT2FS.plot, T1FS_plot, IT2FS_plot, and TR_plot) have been added.
- Users can specify the output file format (png, eps, pdf, etc.) while calling the plot function by setting the ext input parameter (with pdf default value).
- Users can edit the status of the grid in the output plot by setting the grid input parameter (with True default value).
- Users can edit the x and y-labels by setting the input parameters xlabel and ylabel, respectively. The default value of the xlabel is Domain, and the default value of the ylabel is Membership degree.
There are some deprecated functions and classes. After releasing version 1.0.0, deprecated functions and classes will no longer be supported. So:
- Please use the function IT2FS_LGaussian_UncertStd instead of L_IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertStd.
- Please use the function IT2FS_RGaussian_UncertStd instead of R_IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertStd.
- Please use the class IT2Mamdani instead of IT2FLS.
- Please use the class IT2Mamdani instead of Mamdani.
- Please use the class IT2TSK instead of TSK.

Some notes on version 0.6.1

Some bugs have been fixed in this version.

Some notes on version 0.6

Supporting Type 1 Fuzzy Sets and Systems.
Supporting elliptic and semi-elliptic membership functions.
Supporting generalized bell shaped membership function.
Supporting many new t-norms and s-norms.
Some bugs have been fixed in this version.

Some notes on version 0.5

Supporting both Mamdani and TSK systems.
Some bugs have been fixed in this vesion. Now, it is possible to use different domains for FLS inputs and outputs.

Some notes on version 0.4

Some bugs have been fixed in this version especially in type reduction algorithms. I would like to say thanks to Dr. K.B Badri Narayanan for reporting the errors.
Some new IT2FSs have been added to the toolkit.
In previous versions, the height of the IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertStd and IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertMean IT2FSs was fixed to 1, by default. But in the new version, user must give the height value in the parameters list as the last element.

Docstrings

Further information about the functions and classes in the PyIT2FLS are accessible by docstrings. After importing a function or class, they can be seen by calling the help function. For example:

>>> from pyit2fls import IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertStd
>>> help(IT2FS_Gaussian_UncertStd)
