This article is oriented to the application of generalized type-2 fuzzy systems in the dynamic adjustment of the parameters of a recent metaheuristic based on nature that follows the rules of the best feeding strategies of predators and prey in ecosystems. This metaheuristic is called fuzzy marine predator algorithm (FMPA) and is presented as an improved variant of the original marine predator algorithm (MPA). The FMPA balances the degree of exploration and exploitation through its iterations according to the advancement of the predator. In the state of the art, it has been shown that type-2 fuzzy increases metaheuristic performance when adapting parameters, although there is also an increase in the execution time. The FMPA with generalized type-2 and interval type-2 parameter adaptations was applied to a group of benchmark functions introduced in the competition on evolutionary computation (CEC2017); the results show that generalized FMPA provides better solutions. A second case for FMPA is also presented, which is the optimal fuzzy control design, in the search for the optimal membership function parameters. A symmetrical distribution of these functions is assumed for reducing complexity in the search process for optimal parameters. Simulations were carried out considering different degrees of noise when analyzing the performance when simulating each of the used fuzzy methods.
