Fuzzy Control of Chaotic System with Genetic Algorithm

A novel approach to control the unpredictable behavior of chaotic systems is presented. The control algorithm is based on fuzzy logic control technique combined with genetic algorithm. The use of fuzzy logic allows for the implementation of human "rule-of-thumb" approach to decision making by employing linguistic variables. An improved Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to learn to optimally select the fuzzy membership functions of the linguistic labels in the condition portion of each rule, and to automatically generate fuzzy control actions under each condition. Simulation results show that such an approach for the control of chaotic systems is both effective and robust.
