Neuro-fuzzy systems-the combination of artiicial neural networks with fuzzy logic-are becoming increasingly popular. However, neuro-fuzzy systems need to be extended for applications which require context (e.g., speech, handwriting, control). Some of these applications can be modeled in the form of nite-state automata. Previously, it was proved that deterministic nite-state automata (DFAs) can ...

short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. the strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. this paper establishes the applicatio...

improving time series forecastingaccuracy is an important yet often difficult task.both theoretical and empirical findings haveindicated that integration of several models is an effectiveway to improve predictive performance, especiallywhen the models in combination are quite different. in this paper,a model of the hybrid artificial neural networks andfuzzy model is proposed for time series for...

Synchronization is very important for the efficient processing and transmission of information across the nervous system. Synchronization processes are ubiquitous in nature and play a very important role in many areas. As a special neural networks, fuzzy neural networks have an automatic adaption procedure and attract many attentions to their dynamical behaviors. In this paper, delayed fuzzy hi...

In this paper, by employing a new Lyapunov functional and an elementary inequality analysis technique, some sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the existence and uniqueness of periodic oscillatory solution for fuzzy bi-directional memory (BAM) neural networks with time-varying delays, and all other solutions of the fuzzy BAM neural networks converge the uniqueness periodic solution. The...

In this paper, we study impulsive fuzzy cellular neural networks. Criteria are obtained for the existence and exponential stability of a unique equilibrium of fuzzy cellular neural networks impulsive state displacements at fixed instants of time.

One benefit of fuzzy systems (Zadeh, 1965; Ruspini et al., 1998; Cox, 1994) is that the rule base can be created from expert knowledge, used to specify fuzzy sets to partition all variables and a sufficient number of fuzzy rules to describe the input/output relation of the problem at hand. However, a fuzzy system that is constructed by expert knowledge alone will usually not perform as required...

This paper implements a Neuro-Fuzzy (FNN) approach to autonomously navigate a car-like robot in an unknown environment. The applied technique allows the robot to avoid obstacles and locally search for a path leading to the goal after learning and adaptation. It is based on two Fuzzy Artmap neural networks, a Reinforcement trial and error neural network and a Mamdani fuzzy logic controller (FLC)...

Intelligent systems for the diagnosis and classification of Endocrine Myopathy (EM) plays very significant role in the medical field. Neuro-fuzzy system is refers to combinations of artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic, in which fuzzy system works like human reasoning and the learning structure of neural networks. The plan of this paper is to present the Neuro-fuzzy system for the classif...

Causal networks (CNs) have been used to construct inference systems for diagnostics and decision making. More recently, Bayesian causal networks (BCNs) and fuzzy causal networks (FCNs) have gained considerable attention and offer an alternative framework for representing structured human knowledge and are used in causal inference in many real-world applications. However, for large systems, it i...
