Fuzzy systems, neural networks and its combination in neuro-fuzzy systems are already well established in data analysis and system control. Especially, neurofuzzy systems are well suited for the development of interactive data analysis tools, which enable the creation of rule-based knowledge from data and the introduction of a-priori knowledge into the process of data analysis. However, its rec...

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...

In agricultural domain, the ObjectProperty knowledge is a useful knowledge that serves the ‘Know-what’ to a farmer or to an agriculturalist such as pest’s characteristics (color, size, and etc). This paper proposes the framework for extracting the object and its properties and also the query system. The extraction problems consist of object identification, property relation identification, and ...

Abstract. Recently, a number of extensions to classical fuzzy logic systems (type-1 fuzzy logic systems) have been attracting interest. One of the most widely used extensions is the interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems. An interval type-2 TSK fuzzy logic system can be obtained by considering the membership functions of its existed type-1 counterpart as primary membership functions and assigning ...

The need for trading off interpretability and accuracy is intrinsic to the use of fuzzy systems. The obtaining of accurate but also human-comprehensible fuzzy systems played a key role in Zadeh and Mamdani’s seminal ideas and system identification methodologies. Nevertheless, before the advent of soft computing, accuracy progressively became the main concern of fuzzy model builders, making the ...

Researches show that probability-statistical methods application, especially at the early stage of the aviation Gas Turbine Engine (GTE) technical condition diagnosing, when the flight information has property of the fuzzy, limitation and uncertainty is unfounded. Hence the efficiency of application of new technology Soft Computing at these diagnosing stages with the using of the Fuzzy Logic an...

System modelling based on conventional mathematical tools like differential equations is not well suited for dealing with ill-defined and uncertain systems. By contrast, a fuzzy inference system, employing fuzzy if–then rules can model the qualitative aspects of human knowledge and reasoning processes without employing precise quantitative analyses. This fuzzy modeling or fuzzy identification e...

Nowadays, the Fuzzy C-Means method has become one of the most popular clustering methods based on minimization of a criterion function. However, the performance of this clustering algorithm may be significantly degraded in the presence of noise. This paper presents a robust clustering algorithm called Bilateral Weighted Fuzzy CMeans (BWFCM). We used a new objective function that uses some k...

The single input connected fuzzy inference model (SIC model) by Hayashi et al. can decrease the number of fuzzy rules drastically in comparison with the conventional fuzzy inference models. In this paper, we first show the SIC model and its learning algorithm, and clarify the applicability of the SIC model by applying it to identification of nonlinear functions. c © 2013 The Authors.

The research discusses the problems of designing the automotive safety systems as comprehensive objects at the interface between the vehicle dynamics control, intelligent transportation systems and human machine interface. Taking into account the extreme uncertainty of the driving environment, the development of reliable safety control systems is possible only on the basis of intelligent analyt...
