Abstract
Yubazaki proposed single input rule modules connected fuzzy reasoning method (SIRMs method) whose final output is obtained by summarizing the product of the importance degree and the inference result of single input fuzzy rule module. This paper proposes "functional type SIRMs method" which generalizes SIRMs method, and clarifies the relationship between Takagi and Sugeno (T-S) reasoning method and functional type SIRMs method. Functional type SIRMs method can be shown to be transformed to T-S reasoning method, but not vice versa.
