A novel approach to build a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model of an unknown nonlinear system from experimental data is presented in the paper. The neuro-fuzzy models or, more specifically, fuzzy basis function networks (FBFNs) are trained from input–output data to approximate the nonlinear systems for which analytical mathematical models are not available. Then, the T-S fuzzy models are derived from the direct linearization of the neuro-fuzzy models. The operating points for linearization are

Based on T-S fuzzy models, optimal controllers are designed and implemented for a nonlinear two-link flexible joint robot, which demonstrates the possibility of implementing the well-established model-based optimal control method onto unknown nonlinear dynamic systems.
