CZ_ShapedMembershipFunction

Class for implementing a z-like membership function with the A and B parameters.

Description

The function sets a z-like two-parameter membership function. This is a non-increasing membership function that takes values from 1 to 0. The function parameters define an interval, within which the function decreases in non-linear trajectory from 1 to 0.

The function represents fuzzy sets of “very low” type. In other words, it sets non-increasing membership functions with saturation.
