This paper presents an adaptive neural fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) approach to predict the location, occurrence time and the magnitude of earthquakes. The analysis conducted in this paper is based on the principle of conservation of energy and momentum of annual earthquakes which has been validated by analyzing data obtained from United Sates Geographical Survey (USGS). This principle shall ...

In an interconnected power system, low frequency electromechanical oscillations are initiated by normal small changes in system loads, and they become much worse following a large disturbance. Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices are widely recognized as powerful controllers for damping power system oscillations. The standard FACTS controllers are linear controllers which may not gua...

The aim of this paper is to propose a procedure for model selection in Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for time series forecasting. In this paper, we focus on the model selection based on statistical inference of R incremental. The selecting model is conducted by evaluating the inputs, number of membership functions and rules in architecture of ANFIS until the contribution of R2 i...

Predicting water quality is the key factor in the water quality management of reservoirs. Since a large number of factors affect the water quality, traditional data processing methods are no longer good enough for solving the problem. The dissolved oxygen (DO) level is a measure of the health of the aquatic system and its prediction is very important. DO dynamics are highly nonlinear and artifi...

This article presents a study of academic performance evaluation using soft computing techniques inspired by the successful application of K-means, fuzzy C-means (FCM), subtractive clustering (SC), hybrid subtractive clustering-fuzzy C-means (SC-FCM) and hybrid subtractive clustering-adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (SC-ANFIS) methods for solving academic performance evaluation problems. M...

In this paper, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) techniques are developed and applied to identify damage in a model steel girder bridge using dynamic parameters. The required data in the form of natural frequencies are obtained from experimental modal analysis. A comparative study is made using the ANNs and ANFIS techniques and results showed th...

Supplier selection is a key task for firms, enabling them to achieve the objectives of a supply chain. Selecting a supplier is based on multiple conflicting factors, such as quality and cost, which are represented by a multi-criteria description of the problem. In this article, a new approach based on Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is presented to overcome the supplier selection ...

Evaporation, as a major component of the hydrologic cycle, plays a key role in water resources development and management in arid and semi-arid climatic regions. Although there are empirical formulas available, their performances are not all satisfactory due to the complicated nature of the evaporation process and the data availability. This paper explores evaporation estimation methods based o...

in this paper, an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) based control is proposed for the tracking of a micro-electro mechanical systems (mems) gyroscope sensor. the anfis is used to train parameters of the controller for tracking a desired trajectory. numerical simulations for a mems gyroscope are looked into to check the effectiveness of the anfis control scheme. it proves that the sy...
