fuzzy decision tree (fdt) classifiers combine decision trees with approximate reasoning offered by fuzzy representation to deal with language and measurement uncertainties. when a fdt induction algorithm utilizes stopping criteria for early stopping of the tree's growth, threshold values of stopping criteria will control the number of nodes. finding a proper threshold value for a stopping crite...

In this paper we introduce the root of a fuzzy number, and we present aniterative method to nd it, numerically. We present an algorithm to generatea sequence that can be converged to n-th root of a fuzzy number.

Traditional Fuzzy C-means segmentation algorithm requires to set clustering number in advance, and to calculate image clustering center by the iterative arithmetic. So the traditional algorithm is sensitive to the initial value and the computation complexity is high. In order to improve the traditional Fuzzy Cmeans algorithm, this paper presents an infrared image segmentation method using adapt...

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy SVk -modes algorithm that uses the fuzzy k -modes clustering process to cluster categorical data with set-valued attributes. In the proposed algorithm, we use Jaccard coefficient to measure the dissimilarity between two objects and represent the center of a cluster with set-valued modes. A heuristic update way of cluster prototype is developed for the fuzzy par...

This paper deals with the problem of optimization of job sequence in a two-machine flow shop problem in the presence of uncertainty. It is assumed that the processing times of jobs on the machines are described by triangular fuzzy sets. A new optimization algorithm based on Johnson’s algorithm for deterministic processing times and on an improvement of McCahon & Lee’s algorithm is developed and...

Applying the concept of fuzzy logic (an abstract version of Boolean logic) to well-known algorithms generates an abstract version (i.e., fuzzy algorithm) that often results in computational improvements. Precision may be reduced but counteracted by gaining computational efficiency. The trade-offs (e.g., small increase in space, loss of precision) for a variety of applications are deemed accepta...

this study proposes a combination of a fuzzy sliding mode controller (fsmc) with integral-proportion-derivative switching surface based superconducting magnetic energy storage (smes) and pid tuned by a multi-objective optimization algorithm to solve the load frequency control in power systems. the goal of design is to improve the dynamic response of power systems after load demand changes. in t...

Fuzzy logic, neural network, fuzzy-neural networks play an important role in the linguistic modeling of intelligent control and decision making in complex systems. The Fuzzy-Neural Network (FNN) learning represents one of the most effective algorithms to build such linguistic models. This paper proposes an Artificial Immune Algorithm (AIA) based optimal learning fuzzy-neural network (IM-FNN). T...

An approach to construct multiple interpretable and precise fuzzy systems based on the Pareto Multi-objective Cooperative Coevolutionary Algorithm (PMOCCA) is proposed in this paper. First, a modified fuzzy clustering algorithm is used to construct antecedents of fuzzy system, and consequents are identified separately to reduce computational burden. Then, the PMOCCA and the interpretability-dri...

This paper is concerned with the fuzzy support vector classification, in which both of the type of the output training point and the value of the final fuzzy classification function are triangle fuzzy number. First, the fuzzy classification problem is formulated as a fuzzy chance constrained programming. Then, we transform this programming into its equivalence quadratic programming. Final, a fu...
