Abstract

A hardware accelerator that performs fuzzy learning, fuzzy inference, and defuzzification strategy computations is presented in this paper. The hardware is based on two-valued logic. A universal space of 25 elements with five levels each is supported. To achieve a high processing rate for real-time applications, the basic units of the accelerator are connected in a four-level pipeline. The accelerator can receive two parallel fuzzy data as inputs. At a clock rate of 20 MHz, the accelerator can perform 800,000 fuzzy logic inferences per second on multidimensional fuzzy data.
