TL;DR
It is only for interval type-2 fuzzy sets that type- 2 FLSs are practical, and this paper explains why this is so.
Abstract
Type-2 fuzzy logic systems (FLSs) allow uncertainties that occur in rule-based FLSs to be modeled using the new third dimension of type-2 fuzzy sets. Although a complete theory of type-2 FLSs exists for general type-2 fuzzy sets, it is only for interval type-2 fuzzy sets that type-2 FLSs are practical. This paper explains why this is so.

Using the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, it is proved that linear combinations of the fuzzy basis functions are capable of uniformly approximating any real continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy.

All this is needed to implement a type-2 fuzzy logic system (FLS) is discussed, including join and meet under minimum/product t-norm, algebraic operations, properties of membership grades oftype-2 sets, andType-2 relations and their compositions.
Introduction to type-2 fuzzy logic systems

A robust fuzzy logic system is introduced, one that can handle rule uncertainties and make use of type-2 fuzzy sets for this purpose, and a new operation that is called type-reduction is introduced.
