# FuzzyTsukamoto - Tsukamoto Fuzzy Inference System

## Overview

The FuzzyTsukamoto class implements the Tsukamoto fuzzy inference method, a unique approach where all consequent membership functions are monotonic (either strictly increasing or decreasing). This method uses height defuzzification, making it computationally efficient and particularly suitable for real-time control applications.

## Key Features

- **Monotonic Membership Functions**: All output membership functions must be monotonic
- **Height Defuzzification**: Uses the height method for crisp output calculation
- **Real-time Processing**: Optimized for embedded systems with minimal computational overhead
- **Platform Support**: ESP32, ESP8266, and AVR-based Arduino boards
- **Memory Efficient**: Static memory allocation with configurable limits

## Mathematical Foundation

### Tsukamoto Method Characteristics

The Tsukamoto method differs from Mamdani and Sugeno in several key aspects:

1. **Monotonic Output Functions**: All consequent membership functions are monotonic
2. **Height Defuzzification**: Output is calculated using the height of each fired rule
3. **No Aggregation**: Individual rule outputs are combined through weighted averaging

### Inference Process

For each rule with firing strength α:
1. Calculate rule activation level: `α = min(μA(x), μB(y))`
2. Find crisp output z where `μC(z) = α` (using inverse membership function)
3. Combine all rule outputs using weighted average

Final output:
```
z* = Σ(αi × zi) / Σ(αi)
```

Where:
- `αi` = firing strength of rule i
- `zi` = crisp output of rule i

## Membership Function Types

### Monotonic Functions (Required for Output)

#### Sigmoid Function
```cpp
// Increasing: μ(x) = 1 / (1 + exp(-a(x-c)))
// Decreasing: μ(x) = 1 / (1 + exp(a(x-c)))
addSigmoidMF("output", "low", -2.0, 25.0);  // Decreasing
addSigmoidMF("output", "high", 2.0, 75.0);  // Increasing
```

#### S-shaped Function (Increasing)
```cpp
// S(x; a, b) = 0 for x ≤ a
//            = 2((x-a)/(b-a))² for a < x ≤ (a+b)/2  
//            = 1-2((x-b)/(b-a))² for (a+b)/2 < x < b
//            = 1 for x ≥ b
addSMF("output", "high", 50.0, 100.0);
```

#### Z-shaped Function (Decreasing)
```cpp
// Z(x; a, b) = 1 for x ≤ a
//            = 1-2((x-a)/(b-a))² for a < x ≤ (a+b)/2
//            = 2((x-b)/(b-a))² for (a+b)/2 < x < b  
//            = 0 for x ≥ b
addZMF("output", "low", 0.0, 50.0);
```

### Non-monotonic Functions (Input Variables Only)

#### Triangular Function
```cpp
addTriangularMF("temperature", "cold", 0, 10, 20);
addTriangularMF("temperature", "warm", 15, 25, 35);
addTriangularMF("temperature", "hot", 30, 40, 50);
```

addTrapezoidalMF("humidity", "low", 0, 0, 20, 40);
addTrapezoidalMF("humidity", "medium", 30, 40, 60, 70);
addTrapezoidalMF("humidity", "high", 60, 80, 100, 100);
```

#### Gaussian Function
```cpp
addGaussianMF("pressure", "low", 1000, 50);    // center=1000, sigma=50
addGaussianMF("pressure", "normal", 1013, 30); // center=1013, sigma=30
addGaussianMF("pressure", "high", 1030, 40);   // center=1030, sigma=40
```

## Best Practices

### 1. Output Function Design

tempController.addZMF("output", "low", 0, 50);     // Decreasing 0-50
tempController.addSMF("output", "high", 50, 100);  // Increasing 50-100

// Ensure proper overlap at transition points
tempController.addSigmoidMF("output", "medium", 0.1, 50); // Centered transition
```

### 2. Rule Completeness
```cpp
// Ensure all input combinations are covered
for (auto temp : {"cold", "warm", "hot"}) {
    for (auto humidity : {"low", "high"}) {
        tempController.addRule(
            String("temperature=") + temp + " AND humidity=" + humidity,
            "fanSpeed=appropriate_output"
        );
    }
}
```

### 3. Function Parameter Tuning
```cpp
// Adjust sigmoid slope for sensitivity
addSigmoidMF("output", "response", 2.0, center);  // Steep transition
addSigmoidMF("output", "response", 0.5, center);  // Gentle transition

// Tune S/Z function breakpoints for smooth control
addSMF("output", "increasing", breakpoint1, breakpoint2);
addZMF("output", "decreasing", breakpoint1, breakpoint2);
```

## Integration with Kinematrix

The FuzzyTsukamoto module integrates seamlessly with the Kinematrix ecosystem:

    sensors.addSensor("temperature", &tempSensor);
    sensors.addSensor("humidity", &humiditySensor);
    // Configure fuzzy controller...
}

void loop() {
    sensors.update();
    if (sensors.isUpdated("temperature")) {
        float temp = sensors.getValue<float>("temperature", "value");
        float humidity = sensors.getValue<float>("humidity", "value");

    mqtt.setCallback(onMQTTMessage);
}

void onMQTTMessage(char* topic, byte* payload, unsigned int length) {
    if (strcmp(topic, "sensors/input") == 0) {
        // Parse input values from MQTT

## Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

#### 1. Non-monotonic Output Functions
**Problem**: Runtime error when using triangular functions for output
**Solution**: Use only monotonic functions (Sigmoid, S-shaped, Z-shaped) for outputs

#### 2. Poor Control Performance
**Problem**: Erratic or unstable output
**Solution**: 
- Check monotonic function parameters
- Ensure proper overlap between functions
- Verify rule completeness

#### 3. Memory Issues on Arduino
**Problem**: Program crashes or erratic behavior
**Solution**:
- Reduce number of variables and rules
- Use simpler membership functions
- Enable memory optimization flags

### Debugging Tools

```cpp
// Print system configuration
controller.printSystem();

// Check individual rule firing
controller.setInputValue("temperature", 25.0);
controller.setInputValue("humidity", 60.0);
float output = controller.getOutputValue("fanSpeed");
Serial.print("Output: "); Serial.println(output);
```
