Abstract

Abstract A fuzzy computer system according to the invention comprises: a digital processor; a digital memory; a fuzzy inference processing circuit; and a fuzzy inference processing circuit interface. The digital memory stores programs of the digital processor and inference rules of the fuzzy inference processing circuit. The fuzzy inference processing circuit executes a fuzzy inference on the basis of a given inference rule. The fuzzy inference processing circuit interface connects the digital processor and the fuzzy inference processing circuit. In accordance with the programs stored in the digital memory, the digital processor gives the inference rules stored in the digital memory to the fuzzy inference processing circuit through the interface and fetches the result of the inference of the fuzzy inference processing circuit through the interface.
