Maintenance plays now a critical role in manufacturing for achieving important cost savings and competitive advantage while preserving product conditions. It suggests moving from conventional maintenance practices to predictive strategy. Indeed the maintenance action has to be done at the right time based on the system performance and component Remaining Useful Life (RUL) assessed by a prognost...

Electrical conductivity is an important indicator for water quality assessment. Since the composition of mineral salts affects the electrical conductivity of groundwater, it is important to understand the relationships between mineral salt composition and electrical conductivity. In this present paper, we develop an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model for groundwater electrical ...

Accurate and robust estimation of applied forces in Robotic-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery is a very challenging task. Many vision-based solutions attempt to estimate the force by measuring the surface deformation after contacting the surgical tool. However, visual uncertainty, due to tool occlusion, is a major concern and can highly affect the results’ precision. In this paper, a novel de...

It is known that neuro-fuzzy system is easily stuck in local minimum. To improve these drawbacks, a two-stage algorithm combining the advantages of neuro-fuzzy and genetic algorithms (GA) is integrated in system identification. Genetic algorithms are general purposed optimization algorithms with adaptive reproduction, crossover, and mutation operators that provide a method to search optimal par...

This paper presents a novel adaptive neuro-fuzzy based speed controller for vector controlled induction motor drive. The proposed neuro-fuzzy controller incorporates fuzzy logic algorithm with a five-layer artificial neural network (ANN) structure. The conventional PI controller is replaced by Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), which tunes the fuzzy inference system with hybrid lear...
