Finding the collapse susceptible portion of a power system is one of the purposes of voltage stability analysis. This part which is a voltage control area is called the voltage weak area. Determining the weak area and adjecent voltage control areas has special importance in the improvement of voltage stability. Designing an on-line corrective control requires the voltage weak area to be determi...

This chapter discusses the foundation of neuro-fuzzy systems. First, we introduce Takagi, Sugeno, and Kang (TSK) fuzzy model [l,2] and its difference from the Mamdani model. Under the idea of TSK fuzzy model, we discuss a neuro-fuzzy system architecture: Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) that is developed by Jang [3]. This model allows the fuzzy systems to learn the paramete...

Medical diagnosis is often done by expertise and experience of phisician, but sometimes may lead to misdiagnosis. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system. In this disease, body produces antibodies that attack and damage the Myelin, in which the myelin sheath (the insulation for nerve fibers) is in trouble and the damage to myelin in the central nervous system cause to...

In recent years, soft computing and artificial intelligence techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) have been effectively used in various civil engineering applications. This study aims to examine the potential of ANN and ANFIS for modeling the compressive strength of concrete containing expanded perlite powder (EPP). For doing this, ...

BOD is a parameter frequently used to evaluate the water quality on different rivers. The aim of the present study is to investigate applicability of artificial intelligence techniques such as ANFIS (Adapti ve Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) in water quality BOD prediction for the case study, Mahi river at Khanpur in Thasara Taluka of Kheda District in Gujarat State, India. The proposed technique...

This paper presents a new distance relay technique for transmission line protection by using well known control technique; Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). The ANFIS can be viewed either as a fuzzy system, a neural network or fuzzy neural network FNN. The structure is seen as a neural network for training and a fuzzy viewpoint is utilized to gain insight into the system and to sim...

Information extraction from satellite images is a challenging task. This is because of the associated uncertainty arising out of improper capture and subsequent transfer. Fuzzy systems are suitable for such applications because of the fact that these have the ability to capture minute variations in the patterns presented. Fuzzy systems are expert decision making tools that require support from ...

Intelligent computing tools such as artificial neural network (ANN) and fuzzy logic approaches are demonstrated to be competent when applied individually to a variety of problems. Recently, there has been a growing interest in combining both these approaches, and as a result, neuro-fuzzy computing techniques have been evolved. In this study, a new approach based on an adaptive neuro-fuzzy infer...

slope stability analysis is an enduring research topic in the engineering and academic sectors. accurate prediction of the factor of safety (fos) of slopes, their stability, and their performance is not an easy task. in this work, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) was utilized to build an estimation model for the prediction of fos. three anfis models were implemented including g...

the oxidative coupling of methane (ocm) performance over na-w-mn/sio2 at elevated pressures has been simulated by adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) using reaction data gathered in an isothermal fixed bed microreactor. in the designed neuro fuzzy models, three important parameters such as methane to oxygen ratio, gas hourly space velocity (ghsv), and reaction temperature were conside...
