Fuzzy clustering: Insights and new approach.

Frank Klawonn (2004)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Fuzzy clustering extends crisp clustering in the sense that objects can belong to various clusters with different membership degrees at the same time, whereas crisp or deterministic clustering assigns each object to a unique cluster. The standard approach to fuzzy clustering introduces the so-called fuzzifier which controls how much clusters may overlap. In this paper we illustrate, how this fuzzifier can help to reduce the number of undesired local minima of the objective function that...

Learning fuzzy systems. An objective function-approach.

Frank Höppner, Frank Klawonn (2004)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

One of the most important aspects of fuzzy systems is that they are easily understandable and interpretable. This property, however, does not come for free but poses some essential constraints on the parameters of a fuzzy system (like the linguistic terms), which are sometimes overlooked when learning fuzzy system autornatically from data. In this paper, an objective function-based approach to learn fuzzy systems is developed, taking these constraints explicitly into account. Starting...

Evolution-fuzzy rule based system with parameterized consequences

Piotr Czekalski (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

While using automated learning methods, the lack of accuracy and poor knowledge generalization are both typical problems for a rule-based system obtained on a given data set. This paper introduces a new method capable of generating an accurate rule-based fuzzy inference system with parameterized consequences using an automated, off-line learning process based on multi-phase evolutionary computing and a training data covering algorithm. The presented method consists of the following steps:...

Fuzzy sets in pattern recognition, image analysis and automatic speech recognition

Dwijesh Dutta Majumder (1985)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

Fuzzy set theory, a recent generalization of classical set theory, has attracted the attention of researchers working in various areas including pattern recognition, which has had a seminal influence in the development of this new theory. This paper attempts to discuss some of the methodologies that have been suggested for pattern recognition, and techniques for image processing and speech recognition.

Object-parameter approaches to predicting unknown data in an incomplete fuzzy soft set

Yaya Liu, Keyun Qin, Chang Rao, Mahamuda Alhaji Mahamadu (2017)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The research on incomplete fuzzy soft sets is an integral part of the research on fuzzy soft sets and has been initiated recently. In this work, we first point out that an existing approach to predicting unknown data in an incomplete fuzzy soft set suffers from some limitations and then we propose an improved method. The hidden information between both objects and parameters revealed in our approach is more comprehensive. Furthermore, based on the similarity measures of fuzzy sets, a...

A fuzzy system with ε-insensitive learning of premises and consequences of if-then rules

Jacek Łęski, Tomasz Czogała (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

First, a fuzzy system based on ifFirst, a fuzzy system based on if-then rules and with parametric consequences is recalled. Then, it is shown that the globalthen rules and with parametric consequences is recalled. Then, it is shown that the global and local ε-insensitive learning of the above fuzzy system may be presented as a combination of both an ε-insensitive gradient method and solving a system of linear inequalities. Examples are given of using the introduced method to design fuzzy...

On classification with missing data using rough-neuro-fuzzy systems

Robert K. Nowicki (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The paper presents a new approach to fuzzy classification in the case of missing data. Rough-fuzzy sets are incorporated into logical type neuro-fuzzy structures and a rough-neuro-fuzzy classifier is derived. Theorems which allow determining the structure of the rough-neuro-fuzzy classifier are given. Several experiments illustrating the performance of the roughneuro-fuzzy classifier working in the case of missing features are described.

Neuro-fuzzy modelling based on a deterministic annealing approach

Robert Czabański (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper introduces a new learning algorithm for artificial neural networks, based on a fuzzy inference system ANBLIR. It is a computationally effective neuro-fuzzy system with parametrized fuzzy sets in the consequent parts of fuzzy if-then rules, which uses a conjunctive as well as a logical interpretation of those rules. In the original approach, the estimation of unknown system parameters was made by means of a combination of both gradient and least-squares methods. The novelty...

Extraction of fuzzy rules using deterministic annealing integrated with ε-insensitive learning

Robert Czabański (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

A new method of parameter estimation for an artificial neural network inference system based on a logical interpretation of fuzzy if-then rules (ANBLIR) is presented. The novelty of the learning algorithm consists in the application of a deterministic annealing method integrated with ε-insensitive learning. In order to decrease the computational burden of the learning procedure, a deterministic annealing method with a "freezing" phase and ε-insensitive learning by solving a system of...
