Data-driven fuzzy modeling has been used in a wide variety of applications. However, in fuzzy rule-based models acquired from numerical data, redundancy often exists in the form of redundant rules or similar fuzzy sets. This results in unnecessary structural complexity and decreases the interpretability of the system. In this paper, a rule-base self-extraction and simpli&cation method is propos...

designing an effective criterion for selecting the best rule is a major problem in theprocess of implementing fuzzy learning classifier (flc) systems. conventionally confidenceand support or combined measures of these are used as criteria for fuzzy rule evaluation. in thispaper new entities namely precision and recall from the field of information retrieval (ir)systems is adapted as alternative...

Potato image segmentation is an important part of image-based potato defect detection. This paper presents a robust potato color image segmentation through a combination of a fuzzy rule based system, an image thresholding based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization and morphological operators. The proposed potato color image segmentation is robust against variation of background, distance and ...

Control Chart Patterns (CCPs) recognition is one the most important concepts in control chart application. Relating the patterns exhibited on the control chart to assignable causes is an ambiguous and vague task especially when multiple patterns co-exist. In this study, a fuzzy rule-based system is developed for X ̅ control charts to prioritize the control chart causes based on the accumulated e...

The fuzzy rule based inference is known to be a useful tool to capture the behavior of an approximate system in transportation. One of the obstacles of implementing the fuzzy rule based inference, however, has been to calibrate the membership functions of the fuzzy sets used in the rules. This paper proposes a way to calibrate the membership function when a set of input and output data is given...

In this pape, a class of nonlinear time-delay systems based on the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S)fuzzy model is defined. We investigate the delay-independent stability of this model. A model-based fuzzy stabilization design utilizing the concept of the so-called “parallel distributed compensation” (PDC) is employed. The main idea of the controller design is to derive each control rule to compensate each r...
