Use of learning automata in distributed fuzzy logic processor training

A new algorithm for training the parameters of a distributed logic processor is suggested, based on learning automata. A fuzzy inference system is implemented on a multilayer perceptron platform. Various possibilities for assigning learning automata are discussed and two assignment strategies are proposed. The behaviour of the resulting algorithm is illustrated using flue-gas NO/sub x/ emission data measured from an industrial-size fluidised-bed combustor.
