Rough modeling - a bottom-up approach to model construction
Traditional data mining methods based on rough set theory focus on extracting models which are good at classifying unseen obj-ects. If one wants to uncover new knowledge from the data, the model must have a high descriptive quality-it must describe the data set in a clear and concise manner, without sacrificing classification performance. Rough modeling, introduced by Kowalczyk (1998), is an approach which aims at providing models with good predictive emphand descriptive qualities, in addition to...
Rough set-based dimensionality reduction for supervised and unsupervised learning
The curse of dimensionality is a damning factor for numerous potentially powerful machine learning techniques. Widely approved and otherwise elegant methodologies used for a number of different tasks ranging from classification to function approximation exhibit relatively high computational complexity with respect to dimensionality. This limits severely the applicability of such techniques to real world problems. Rough set theory is a formal methodology that can be employed to reduce the dimensionality...
Self-adaptation of parameters in a learning classifier system ensemble machine
Self-adaptation is a key feature of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). Although EAs have been used successfully to solve a wide variety of problems, the performance of this technique depends heavily on the selection of the EA parameters. Moreover, the process of setting such parameters is considered a time-consuming task. Several research works have tried to deal with this problem; however, the construction of algorithms letting the parameters adapt themselves to the problem is a critical and open problem...

Statistical-learning control of multiple-delay systems with application to ATM networks
Congestion control in the ABR class of ATM network presents interesting challenges due to the presence of multiple uncertain delays. Recently, probabilistic methods and statistical learning theory have been shown to provide approximate solutions to challenging control problems. In this paper, using some recent results by the authors, an efficient statistical algorithm is used to design a robust, fixed-structure, controller for a high-speed communication network with multiple uncertain propagation...
Stock price forecasting: Autoregressive modelling and fuzzy neural network.
Most models for the time series of stock prices have centered on autoregresive (AR) processes. Traditionaly, fundamental Box-Jenkins analysis [3] have been the mainstream methodology used to develop time series models. Next, we briefly describe the develop a classical AR model for stock price forecasting. Then a fuzzy regression model is then introduced. Following this description, an artificial fuzzy neural network based on B-spline member ship function is presented as an alternative to the stock...

The estimation of electric power losses in electrical networks by fuzzy regression model using genetic algorithm.
This paper presents the comparative study for fuzzy regression model using linear programming, fuzzy regression model using genetic algorithms and standard regression model. The fuzzy and standard models were developed for estimation of electric power losses in electrical networks. Simulation was carried out with a tool developed in MATLAB.
The HeKatE methodology. Hybrid engineering of intelligent systems
This paper describes a new approach, the HeKatE methodology, to the design and development of complex rule-based systems for control and decision support. The main paradigm for rule representation, namely, eXtended Tabular Trees (XTT), ensures high density and transparency of visual knowledge representation. Contrary to traditional, flat rule-based systems, the XTT approach is focused on groups of similar rules rather than on single rules. Such groups form decision tables which are connected into...
The logic of neural networks.
This paper establishes the equivalence between multilayer feedforward networks and linear combinations of Lukasiewicz propositions. In this sense, multilayer forward networks have a logic interpretation, which should permit to apply logical techniques in the neural networks framework.

The performance profile: A multi-criteria performance evaluation method for test-based problems
In test-based problems, solutions produced by search algorithms are typically assessed using average outcomes of interactions with multiple tests. This aggregation leads to information loss, which can render different solutions apparently indifferent and hinder comparison of search algorithms. In this paper we introduce the performance profile, a generic, domain-independent, multi-criteria performance evaluation method that mitigates this problem by characterizing the performance of a solution by...
The UD RLS algorithm for training feedforward neural networks
A new algorithm for training feedforward multilayer neural networks is proposed. It is based on recursive least squares procedures and U-D factorization, which is a well-known technique in filter theory. It will be shown that due to the U-D factorization method, our algorithm requires fewer computations than the classical RLS applied to feedforward multilayer neural network training.
