We propose a bit-shifting-based fuzzy inference method for an efficient digital hardware implementation. The proposed fuzzy inference method includes two new techniques which are a membership function generating method and a fast defuzzification method using only “active units”. These techniques reduce a hardware cost and a calculation cost for the membership function and the defuzzification, respectively. In this paper, we apply the proposed method to an execution mode of self-organizing relationship network. Simulation results show that the proposed method has a good approximation ability of a nonlinear I/O relationship as well as the ordinary method.
