1. A fuzzy logic system for processing a vector of signals, comprising: input means for inputting the vector of signals; an electronic memory having stored therein a rule partition table; rule identifier means, coupled to the input means and the electronic memory, for using the vector of signals to access a corresponding location in the rule partition table, and retrieving therefrom an identifier of a subset of fuzzy rules that are preselected to be applied to the corresponding vector of signals; and rule processing means, coupled to the input means and to the rule identifier means, for applying each fuzzy rule identified by the retrieved identifier to the vector of signals to produce a processed vector of signals.
