Churn prediction is a useful tool to predict customer at churn risk. By accurate prediction of churners and non-churners, a company can use the limited marketing resource efficiently to target the churner customers in a retention marketing campaign. Accuracy is not the only important aspect in evaluating a churn prediction models. Churn prediction models should be both accurate and comprehensib...

Fuzzy inference systems have been applied in recent years in various medical fields due to their ability to obtain good results featuring white-box models. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), which combines adaptive neural network capabilities with the fuzzy logic qualitative approach, has been previously used in modelling survival of breast cancer patients based on patient groups de...

In this study, a new approach based on adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was presented for detection of electrocardiographic changes in patients with partial epilepsy. Decision making was performed in two stages: feature extraction using the wavelet transform (WT) and the ANFIS trained with the backpropagation gradient descent method in combination with the least squares method. Two...

modeling of stream flow–suspended sediment relationship is one of the most studied topics in hydrology due to itsessential application to water resources management. recently, artificial intelligence has gained much popularity owing toits application in calibrating the nonlinear relationships inherent in the stream flow–suspended sediment relationship. thisstudy made us of adaptive neuro-fuzzy ...

The paper presents a methodology for developing adaptive speed controllers in a permanent-magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor drive system. A proportional-integral controller is employed in order to obtain the controller parameters at each selected load. The resulting data from PI controller are used to train adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) that could deduce the controller parameter...

This paper proposes an ANFIS (Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference System) Learning Approach where we have found patterns of personality types using Big Five Personality Tests for Software Engineering Roles in Software Development Project Teams as part of RAMSET (Role Assignment Methodology for Software Engineering Teams) methodology. An ANFIS model is applied to a set of role traits resultin...

This study deals with the design of distributed power systems and optimal capacitor placement based on the ANFIS (Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference Systems) using Mamdani-type fuzzy inference model. Traditionally, this problem of optimal capacitor placement has been solved through various optimization techniques, but it is less accuracy of finding placement and more time consuming. This can be a...

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, ...

This study presents a new method for modeling an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) based on vibration for predicting surface roughness in the CNC turning process. The input parameters of the model are insert nose radius, cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and vibration amplitude, which determine the output parameter of the surface roughness. A Gauss type membership function was ...

Worms spread by scanning for vulnerable hosts across the Internet. In this paper we report a comparative study of three classification schemes for automated portscan detection. These schemes include a simple Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) that uses classical inductive learning, a Neural Network that uses back propagation algorithm and an Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) that also emp...
