Systems and methods may generate a boundary of a FOU for an interval type-2 MF based on a transformation of another boundary of the FOU. The systems and methods may receive a plurality of parameters for a type-1 MF that defines a boundary of the FOU for the interval type-2 MF and may receive at least one other parameter. The systems and methods may generate, based on a transformation of the type-1 MF utilizing the at least one parameter, a type-1 MF that defines a different boundary of the FOU. The system and methods may adjust the plurality of parameters and the at least one second parameter to adjust the FOU for use in a model representing, for example, a real-world physical system, where execution of the model executes a fuzzy inference system and generates results representing a behavior of the real-world physical system.
