A Neuro-Fuzzy Approach to Agglomerative Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we introduce a new agglomerative clustering algorithm in which eadl pal.tcIIi duster is represented by a collection of fmzy hyperboxes. Initially, a number of such hyperboxes arc calculated to represent the pattern samples. Then, the algorithm applies multi-resolution techniqlle.'i to progressively "combine~ these hyperboxes in a hierarchial manner. Stich an agglomerative scheme has been found to yield encouraging results in real-world clustering problems.

The tunnel boring machine (TBM) penetration rate estimation is one of the crucial and complex tasks encountered frequently to excavate the mechanical tunnels. Estimating the machine penetration rate may reduce the risks related to high capital costs typical for excavation operation. Thus establishing a relationship between rock properties and TBM pe...
متن کاملAPPLICATION OF ADAPTIVE NEURO-FUZZY INFERENCE SYSTEM FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF DAMAGED ZONE AROUND UNDERGROUND SPACES
The development of an excavation damaged zone (EDZ) around an underground excavation can change the physical, mechanical and hydraulic behaviors of the rock mass near an underground space. This might result in endangering safety, achievement of costs and excavation planed. This paper presents an approach to build a prediction model for the assessment of EDZ, based upon rock mass characteristics...
متن کاملActivity Recognition Using One Triaxial Accelerometer: A Neuro-fuzzy Classifier with Feature Reduction
This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy classifer for activity recognition using one triaxial accelerometer and feature reduction approaches. We use a triaxial accelerometer to acquire subjects’ acceleration data and train the neurofuzzy classifier to distinguish different activities/movements. To construct the neuro-fuzzy classifier, a modified mapping-constrained agglomerative clustering algorithm ...
متن کاملMulti-Output Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System for Prediction of Dissolved Metal Levels in Acid Rock Drainage: a Case Study
Pyrite oxidation, Acid Rock Drainage (ARD) generation, and associated release and transport of toxic metals are a major environmental concern for the mining industry. Estimation of the metal loading in ARD is a major task in developing an appropriate remediation strategy. In this study, an expert system, the Multi-Output Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (MANFIS), was used for estimation of...
