This paper presents some approaches on the new applications in fault estimation, detection and diagnosis emerged from three powerful concepts: theory of distributed parameter systems, applied to large and complex physical processes, artificial intelligence, with its tool adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference and the intelligent wireless ad-hoc sensor networks. Sensor networks have large and su...

This research deals with the development and comparison of two data-driven models, i.e., Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Adaptive Neuro-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) models for estimation of 28-day compressive strength of concrete for 160 different mix designs. These various mix designs are constructed based on seven different parameters, i.e., 3/4 mm sand, 3/8 mm sand, cement conten...

Several adaptation techniques have been investigated to optimize fuzzy inference systems. Neural network learning algorithms have been used to determine the parameters of fuzzy inference system. Such models are often called as integrated neuro-fuzzy models. In an integrated neuro-fuzzy model there is no guarantee that the neural network learning algorithm converges and the tuning of fuzzy infer...

The paper deals with devising the combination of fuzzy inference systems (FIS) and neural networks called the adaptive network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to determine the forming limit diagram (FLD). In this paper, FLDs are determined experimentally for two grades of low carbon steel sheets using out-of-plane (dome) formability test. The effect of different parameters such as work hardening...

This study investigates the prediction model of compressive strength of self–compacting concrete (SCC) by utilizing soft computing techniques. The techniques consist of adaptive neuro–based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), artificial neural network (ANN) and the hybrid of particle swarm optimization with passive congregation (PSOPC) and ANFIS called PSOPC–ANFIS. Their perf...

The aim of this paper is to detect bank credit cards related frauds. The large amount of data and their similarity lead to a time consuming and low accurate separation of healthy and unhealthy samples behavior, by using traditional classifications. Therefore in this study, the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is used in order to reach a more efficient and accurate algorithm. By com...

Information extraction from satellite images is a challenging task. This is because of the associated uncertainty arising out of improper capture and subsequent transfer. Fuzzy systems are suitable for such applications because of the fact that these have the ability to capture minute variations in the patterns presented. Fuzzy systems are expert decision making tools that require support from ...

A generalized dynamic fuzzy neural network (GDFNN) was created to estimate heavy metal concentrations in rice by integrating spectral indices and environmental parameters. Hyperspectral data, environmental parameters, and heavy metal content were collected from field experiments with different levels of heavy metal pollution (Cu and Cd). Input variables used in the GDFNN model were derived from...
