This paper presents a new biometric score fusion approach in an identification system using the upper integral with respect to Sugeno’s fuzzy measure. First, the proposed method considers each individual matcher as a fuzzy set in order to handle uncertainty and imperfection in matching scores. Then, the corresponding fuzzy entropy estimates the reliability of the information provided by each bi...

A fuzzy integral sliding mode control method based on the finite time stable theory and integral sliding mode control theory is proposed to solve a class of complex network problems. The complex networks are expressed by T-S fuzzy models with bounded approximation errors by using the approximation capability of T-S fuzzy models. The paper proposes fuzzy dynamic integral sliding mode control sch...

The relevance of information fusion methodologies increases due to the complementary development of computer and sensory technologies. Newly hardware and software facilities allow the inclusion of different information sources in a computer system. Information fusion basically attains the transformation of the information delivered by multiple sources into one representational form. The fused d...

This paper addresses the issue of piecewise integral sliding mode control for T-S fuzzy systems. Integral sliding mode control (ISMC) is chosen to stabilize the T-S fuzzy system because of its superior capability in treating uncertainties. Individual integral sliding surfaces are designed in different operating regions of the T-S fuzzy system. Conditions on existence of the sliding mode in the ...

Abstract In this paper, we use new parametic formof fuzzy numbers and convert a system of fuzzy integral equations to two system of integral equations in crisp. Then we solve a system of fuzzy integral equations by means of an analytic technique, namely the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Using the HAM, it is possible to find the exact solution or an approximate solution of the problem. The res...

The Choquet integral is a tool for the information fusion that is very effective in the case where fuzzy measures associated with it are well chosen. In this paper, we propose a new approach for calculating fuzzy measures associated with the Choquet integral in a context of data fusion in multimodal biometrics. The proposed approach is based on genetic algorithms. It has been validated in two d...

When there are interactions among the independent variables, the performances of the most often used multiple regression models and ridge regression model are not well enough. In contrast, the Choquet integral takes into account the interactions among independent variables, the discrete Choquet integral regression models based on some non-negative valued fuzzy measures or monotonic measure can ...

This paper studies some relationships between fuzzy relations, fuzzy graphs and fuzzy measure. It is shown that a fundamental theorem of Discrete Convex Analysis is derived from the theory of fuzzy measures and the Choquet integral.

This paper investigates an Adaptive Fuzzy GainsScheduling Integral Sliding Mode Controller (AFGS-ISMC) design approach to deal with the attitude and altitude stabilization problem of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) precisely of a quadrotor. The Integral Sliding Mode Control (ISMC) seems to be an adequate control tool to remedy this problem. The selection of the controller parameters is done m...
