We mainly investigate the issues of fuzzy modeling and impulsive control of a memristor-based chaotic system and present a memristor-based chaotic system as the Takagi-Sugeno model-based fuzzy system. Then, based on the impulsive control theory of dynamical systems, a criterion ensuring impulsive stabilization of the memristorbased chaotic system is derived for the first time. An illustrative example is given to verify the effectiveness of the control scheme.
