The application of advanced techniques in a fluidised bed freezer for fruits: evaluation of linguistic interpretation vs. stability

In this paper is introduced a general formalism for the application of advanced techniques in adaptive control as Lyapunov-based MRAFC (Model Reference Adaptive Fuzzy Control) and the hybrid system ANFIS (Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference System) for the control of the freezing fruits (strawberries). It provides a description of fuzzification, inference rules, adaptive laws and defuzzification from the fuzzy set domain. In this work, we proposed the adaptive control as an alternative to the classical control methods and illustrated as the quality of the controller can be destroyed for the linguistic interpretability of the rules.
