  • Abstract
    It is known that regular fuzzy neural nets, based on standard fuzzy arithmetic and the extension principle, can not be universal approximators. This negative result is surprising since (regular) neural nets are universal approximators. We argue that hybrid fuzzy neural nets, not necessarily based only on standard fuzzy arithmetic, can be universal approximators
