Fuzzy rule based systems have been very popular in many engineering applications. In petroleum engineering, fuzzy rules are normally constructed using some fuzzy rule extraction techniques to establish the petrophysical properties prediction model. However, when generating fizzy rules from the available information, it may result in a sparse fuzzy rule base. The use of more than one input varia...

The purpose of this paper is to provide a review of the current state of fuzzy logic theory in epidemiology, which is a recent area of research. We present four applications of fuzzy logic theory in epidemic problems, using linguistic fuzzy models, possibility measure, probability of fuzzy events and fuzzy decision making techniques. The results demonstrate that the applications of fuzzy sets i...

This research applied fuzzy c-means and fuzzy integral theories to a proposed novel two-step machinery fault diagnosis model. Distributed multiple fuzzy c-means classifiers were used to produce an initial diagnosis result by considering different features. Fuzzy measure and fuzzy integral data fusion theory was then applied to combine the initial diagnosis results into a consensus final decisio...

Fuzzy clustering is a useful tool for capturing intrinsic structure of data sets. This paper proposes several formulations for soft transition of fuzzy memberships from probabilistic partition to possibilistic one. In the proposed techniques, the free memberships are given by introducing additional penalty term used in Possibilistic c-Means. The new features of the proposed techniques are demon...

The paper emphasizes active entities based modelling of visual programming techniques. Active Objects Model (AOM) and AGent Modelling Language (AGML) are defined and investigated in order to develop flexible and dynamic functionality of interactive components. Therefore the visual programming techniques, distributed knowledge, fuzzy inferences, programming paradigms are analyzed through the con...

Fuzzy measure and fuzzy integral theory is an outgrowth of classical measure theory and has found applications in image processing and information fusion. This paper presents the review of a study on the development of a machinery fault diagnosis application of fuzzy measures and fuzzy integrals. Fuzzy measures and fuzzy integrals take into account the index of importance of criteria and intera...

the error of inertial navigation systems increase versus time, therefore for achieving higher accuracy specially in long time navigations we have to use an aiding system. global positioning system is the best aiding system in this case. in this paper we first simulate a gps and ins; then simulate tightly integration and finally review adaptation method of kalman filtering a fuzzy adaptive kalma...
