short term prediction of traffic flow is one of the most essential elements of all proactive traffic control systems. although various methodologies have been applied to forecast traffic parameters, several researchers have showed that compared with the individual methods, hybrid methods provide more accurate results . these results made the hybrid tools and approaches a more common method for ...

In this paper, a novel neuro-fuzzy system has been introduced for the use of approximation and prediction of complex plants. The proposed system uses a parameter estimation network to provide coefficients of a linear combination, dynamically and then identifies a plant by approximating its target signal. So we have called it PENTA which stands for Parameter Estimation Network for Target Approxi...

suitable soil structure is important for crop growth. one of the main characteristics of soil structure is the size of soil aggregates. there are several ways of showing the stability of soil aggregates, among which the determination of the median weight diameter of soil aggregates is the most common method. in this paper, a method based on adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) was used...

The interest in neuro{fuzzy systems has grown tremendously over the last few years. First approaches concentrated mainly on neuro{fuzzy controllers, whereas newer approaches can also be found in the domain of data analysis. After successful applications in Japan neuro{fuzzy concepts also nd their way into the European industries, though mainly simple models, like FAMs, still prevail. This paper...

One of the important requirements for operational planning of electrical utilities is the prediction of hourly load up to several days, known as Short Term Load Forecasting (STLF). Considering the effect of its accuracy on system security and also economical aspects, there is an on-going attention toward putting new approaches to the task. Recently, Neuro-Fuzzy modelling has played a successful...

slope stability analysis is an enduring research topic in the engineering and academic sectors. accurate prediction of the factor of safety (fos) of slopes, their stability, and their performance is not an easy task. in this work, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) was utilized to build an estimation model for the prediction of fos. three anfis models were implemented including g...

In this paper, a neuro-fuzzy system identification using measured input and output data are carried out. A model-free learning from “examples” methodology is developed to train a neuro-fuzzy model of a smallsize helicopter. The helicopter model is obtained and tuned using training data gathered while a teacher operates the helicopter. Behavior-based model architecture is used, with each behavio...

In this work neural and neuro-fuzzy controllers are developed for the inverters of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) to improve their transient response and adaptability to various loads. Idealized load-currentfeedback controller is built to obtain example patterns for training the networks. Example patterns under various loading conditions are used in the off-line training of the selected n...

A neuro-fuzzy system has been developed to model the behaviour of a fast ferry. The sources of the available knowledge are the physical laws of the vertical dynamics of the craft, and some experimental and simulated data of the ship performance in regular waves. The non-linear model has been obtained by applying adaptive neurofuzzy inference. It is focus on the vertical motion of the craft, bot...
