Flight test data modelling and compression by fuzzy extracted topology technique
Douglas Hensley · 1994
This paper describes a technique utilizing fuzzy set theory that the author has called Fuzzy Extracted Topology. This technique was used to create a reference model of an airplane's aerodynamic characteristics defined by flight test time history data. This reference model of the flight test data resulted in a substantial reduction in the amount of data required to represent the airplane aerodynamic characteristics. Introduction
