   Special Issue on Dynamical Fuzzy Systems and Applications   
      
   Due to its great flexibility in utilizing domain knowledge to cope with   
   ill-defined systems, fuzzy logic theory has found numerous successful   
   applications in industrial engineering, e.g., pattern recognition, automatic   
   control, and fault diagnosis. Generally, a fuzzy logic system with embedded   
   linguistic knowledge maps an input (feature) vector to a scalar (conclusion)   
   output. Most fuzzy systems deployed in practice are static. That is to say,   
   they lack necessary dynamics, and can, thus, only implement nonlinear but   
   non-adaptive input-output mappings. This disadvantage considerably hinders   
   their wider employment in such areas as dynamical modeling, prediction,   
   filtering, and control.   
      
   Dynamical fuzzy systems are usually built based on the internal feedback and   
   memory to store useful history input information. With featured dynamics,   
   dynamical fuzzy systems are capable of handling temporal problems. They can   
   overcome certain drawbacks of the static fuzzy systems. This special issue   
   focuses on presenting the latest work in the theory and applications of   
   dynamical fuzzy systems. The topics of interest for this special issue   
   include, but are not limited to:   
   Dynamical Mamdani fuzzy systems   
   Dynamical Sugeno fuzzy systems   
   Autoregressive fuzzy systems   
   Temporal fuzzy reasoning   
   Dynamical fuzzy optimization   
   Dynamical fuzzy programming   
   Stability analysis of dynamical fuzzy systems   
   Design of dynamical fuzzy systems   
   Recurrent fuzzy neural networks   
   Hardware implementation of dynamical fuzzy systems   
   Applications of dynamical fuzzy systems
