Distributed flexible AC- transmission system (D-FACTS) is a recently advanced FACTS device with high flexibility and smaller size. The DPFC can control power flow in transmission lines, regulate bus voltages and it can also enhance stability margin in power grids. Adaptive-neural network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) combines features of artificial neural network and fuzzy controller. Th...

This paper presents an evolutionary Multiobjective learning model achieving positive synergy between the Inference System and the Rule Base in order to obtain simpler and still accurate linguistic fuzzy models by learning fuzzy inference operators and applying rule selection. The Fuzzy Rule Based Systems obtained in this way, have a better trade-off between interpretability and accuracy in ling...

a reinforced concrete member in which the total span or shear span is especially small in relation to its depth is called a deep beam. in this study, a new approach based on the adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (anfis) is used to predict the shear strength of reinforced concrete (rc) deep beams. a constitutive relationship was obtained correlating the ultimate load with seven mechanical a...

gas hydrate formation in production and transmission pipelines and consequent plugging of these lines have been a major flow-assurance concern of the oil and gas industry for the last 75 years. gas hydrate formation rate is one of the most important topics related to the kinetics of the process of gas hydrate crystallization. the main purpose of this study is investigating phenomenon of gas hyd...

toxicity of 38 aliphatic carboxylic acids was studied using non-linear quantitative structure-toxicityrelationship (qstr) models. the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) was used to construct thenonlinear qstr models in all stages of study. two anfis models were developed based upon differentsubsets of descriptors. the first one used log ow k and lumo e as inputs and had good predicti...

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 ...

Fuzzy control theory has been extensively used in the construction of complex fuzzy inference systems. However, we argue that existing technologies focus mainly on single-source information system, disregarding complementary nature multi-source data. In this paper, develop a novel Gaussian-shaped Inference System (GFIS) driven by To end, first propose an interval-value normalization method to a...

In a large fuzzy rule-based system, a great dealof computation time is required for a fuzzy inference engine. A given fuzzy rule-based system is modeled as a fuzzy inference graph where each node in the graph corresponds to a relation representing a rule in the rule-based system. This paper presents algorithms to minimize the number of nodes in the graph using fuzzy operations as well as their ...

This paper presents the development and design of a graphical user interface and a command line programming toolbox for construction, edition and observation of Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems. The Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic System Toolbox (IT2FLS), is an environment for interval type-2 fuzzy logic inference system development. Tools that cover the different phases of the fuzzy system ...

Fuzzy expert systems are one of the most practical intelligent models with the high potential for managing uncertainty associated to the medical diagnosis. In this paper, a fuzzy inference system (FIS) for diagnosing of acute lymphocytic leukemia in children has been introduced. The fuzzy expert system applies Mamdani reasoning model that has high interpretability to explain system results to e...
