The paper considers gradient training of fuzzy logic controller (FLC) presented in the form of neural network structure. The proposed neuro-fuzzy structure allows keeping linguistic meaning of fuzzy rule base. Its main adjustable parameters are shape determining parameters of the linguistic variables fuzzy values as well as that of the used as intersection operator parameterized T-norm. The backpropagation through time method was applied to train neuro-FLC for a highly non-linear plant (a biotechnological process). The obtained results are discussed with respect to adjustable parameters rationality. Conclusions are made with respect to the appropriate intersection operations too.

This paper presents a genetically trained PID (proportional-integral-derivative)-like ANFIS (adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system) acting as a feedback controller to control non-linear systems. Three important issues are addressed in this paper, which are, first, the evaluation of the ANFIS as a PID-like controller; second, the utilization of the GA (genetic algorithm) alone to train the ANFIS controller, instead of the hybrid learning methods that are widely used in the literature; and, third, the determination of the input and output scaling factors for this controller by the GA. The GA, with real-coding operators, is used to adjust all of the ANFIS parameters, which include the input and output scaling factors, the centres and widths of the input membership functions (MFs), and the consequent parameters. To show the effectiveness of this controller and its learning method, several non-linear plants, including the CSTR (continuous stirred tank reactor), have been selected to be controlled by this controller through simulation. Moreover, this controller's robustness to output disturbances has also been tested and the results clearly indicated the remarkable performance of this controller and its learning algorithm. In addition, the result of comparing the performance of this controller with a genetically tuned classical PID controller has shown the superiority of the PID-like ANFIS controller.
