To identify T-S models, this paper presents a so-called “subtractive fuzzy C-means clustering” approach, in which the results of subtractive clustering are applied to initialize clustering centers and the number of rules in order to perform adaptive clustering. This method not only regulates the division of fuzzy inference system input and output space and determines the relative member functio...

Prediction of cutting forces is very important for the design of cutting tools and for process planning. This paper presents a fuzzy modelling method of cutting forces based on subtractive clustering. The subtractive clustering combined with the least-square algorithm identifies the fuzzy prediction model directly from the information obtained from the sensors. In the micro-milling experimental...

Combination of Adoptive Network based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and subtractive clustering (SC) has been used for estimation of deformation modulus (Em) and rock mass strength (UCSm) considering depth of measurement. To do this, learning of the ANFIS based subtractive clustering (ANFISBSC) was performed firstly on 125 measurements of 9 variables such as rock mass strength (UCSm), deformati...

The Chiu’s method which generates a Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) is a method of fuzzy rules extraction. The rules output is a linear function of inputs. In addition, these rules are not explicit for the expert. In this paper, we develop a method which generates Mamdani FIS, where the rules output is fuzzy. The method proceeds in two steps: first, it uses the subtractive clustering...

Kernelized Fuzzy C-Means clustering technique is an attempt to improve the performance of the conventional Fuzzy C-Means clustering technique. Recently this technique where a kernel-induced distance function is used as a similarity measure instead of a Euclidean distance which is used in the conventional Fuzzy C-Means clustering technique, has earned popularity among research community. Like th...

To satisfy the robust requirement when designing fault identifying method, this paper proposes a novel method to identify sensor fault. Conventional fault identifying method could only classify fault into explicit set. Yet, when a novel faulty pattern occurs, the conventional method can not identify this new pattern and will classify it into a set known ahead of time. For the purpose of robustn...

shear wave velocity (vs) data are key information for petrophysical, geophysical and geomechanical studies. although compressional wave velocity (vp) measurements exist in almost all wells, shear wave velocity is not recorded for most of elderly wells due to lack of technologic tools. furthermore, measurement of shear wave velocity is to some extent costly. this study proposes a novel methodolo...

In this paper, we explore the applicability of Subtractive Clustering Technique (SCT) to student allocation problem that allocates new students to homogenous groups of specified maximum capacity, and analyze effects of such allocations on the academic performance of students. The paper also presents a Fuzzy set, Subtractive Clustering Technique (SCT) and regression analysis based Subtractive Cl...

In this paper, Neuro-Fuzzy based Fuzzy Subtractive Clustering Method (FSCM) and Self Tuning Fuzzy PD-like Controller (STFPDC) were used to solve non-linearity and trajectory problems of pitch AND yaw angles of Twin Rotor MIMO system (TRMS). The control objective is to make the beams of TRMS reach a desired position quickly and accurately. The proposed method could achieve control objectives wit...

This paper proposes a new hybrid method named SCFE-PNN, which integrates effective subtractive clustering based features enhancement and probabilistic neural network (PNN) classifier, had been introduced for isolated Malay word recognition. The proposed method of subtractive clustering features weighting is used as a data preprocessing tool, which designs at diminishing the divergence in featur...
