Abstract :
Quantum computation is proposed for the parallelization of a fuzzy logic control (FLC) algorithm. Quantum computation speeds up the fuzzy inference since serial operations between matrices of large dimensionality are now replaced by a one-step quantum addition or a quantum subtraction. The unitarity properties of the algorithm prove that the FLC stands for a simulator of a quantum computing machine.
