This paper presents a hybrid approach of automatic fuzzy rule generation for on-line handwriting recognition. The fuzzy rules contain the feature information extracted from a given prototype data set. The fuzzy statistical measures and neural networks are used to select the associative features from the input symbols. The final decision is enhanced through additional combination with expert’s k...

In the 3eld of fuzzy modelling, the exclusive consideration of the modelling error leads to problems concerning the handling of high-dimensional applications and the interpretability of the resulting rule base. To solve those problems, a statistically motivated fuzzy rule test is proposed. It decides if a fuzzy IF=THEN statement is a relevant rule or not. In this way, the problem of 3nding a go...

The ‘hnique selling point” of fuzzy systems is usually the interpretability of its rule base. However, very often only the U C C U T U C ~ of the rule base is measured and used to compare a fuzzy system to other solutions. We have suggested an index to measurz the interpretability of fuzzy rule bases for classification problems. However, the index can be used to describe the interpretability of...

Fuzzy rule-based systems have been very popular in many engineering applications. In mineral engineering, fuzzy rules are normally constructed using some fuzzy rule extraction techniques to establish the determination model in predicting the d50c of hydrocyclones. However, when generating fuzzy rules from the available information, it may result in a sparse fuzzy rule base. The use of more than...

Fuzzy rule based systems have been very popular in many engineering applications. However, when generating fuzzy rules from the available information, it may result in a sparse fuzzy rule base. Fuzzy rule interpolation techniques have been established to solve the problems encountered by sparse rule bases. In most engineering applications, the use of more than one input variable is common. This...

In this contribution, we propose a new method to automatically learn the Knowledge Base of a Fuzzy Rule-Based System by ®nding an appropriate Data Base using a Genetic Algorithm and considering a simple generation method to derive the Rule Base. Our genetic process learns all the components of the Data Base (number of labels, working ranges and membership function shapes for each linguistic var...

The paper presents an optimal fuzzy logic control algorithm for vibration mitigation of buildings using magneto-rheological (MR) dampers. MR dampers are semi-active devices and are monitored using external voltage supply. The voltage monitoring of MR damper is accomplished using evolutionary fuzzy system, where the fuzzy system is optimized using evolutionary algorithms (EAs). A micro-genetic a...

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...

Several methods have been proposed and published for control of induction motors. The objective of this work is to develop a fuzzy controller with reduced rule base. Using concepts of direct torque control, a fuzzy controller has been designed with a cascaded final state selector, which reduced rule base and gave birth to a new control technique of induction motor. Details and performance of th...

This paper presents a new approach for the automatic generation of fuzzy rule bases for pattern recognition. The general idea of the approach is to use and enhance the fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm. The rule base is generated through an iterative feature clustering approach. The automatic extraction of features is repeated until the generated rule base is giving an unequivocal answer. Alth...
