Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) are considered a soft computing technique combining elements of fuzzy logic and recurrent neural networks. They found multiple application in such domains as modeling system behavior, prediction time series, decision making process control. Less attention, however, has been turned towards using them pattern classification. In this work we propose an FCM based classif...

Many papers describe the use of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps as a modeling/representation technique for real-life scenarios’ simulation or prediction. However, not many real software implementations are described neither found. In this proposal the authors describe a modeling and experimentation framework where realistic problems can be recreated using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps as a knowledge representation...

This paper focuses on the simulation of behavior for autonomous entities in virtual environments. The behavior of these entities must determine their responses not only to external stimuli, but also with regard to internal states. We propose to describe such behavior using fuzzy cognitive maps (FCM), whereby these internal states might be explicitly represented. This article presents the use of...

In the field of Human-Computer Interaction, several projects aim to develop new technological aids, which enable and provide people who are blind the ability to navigate themselves around on their own. In order to evaluate these technological aids, the created cognitive maps which are built by the help of technological aids should be evaluated at first. A new approach has been developed for eva...
