General background
Neurofuzzy logic
Structure of generated rules
Deep knowledge = full understanding (exactly BECAUSE)
Shallow knowledge = rule expression (perhaps WHY)
The antecedent
IF (Condition 1) AND (Condition 2) THEN (Observed behaviour)
The consequent
The complexity of rule statements depends on the fuzzy set inputs.
