Multi-stage genetic fuzzy systems based on the iterative rule learning approach.

Antonio González, Francisco Herrera (1997)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Genetic algorithms (GAs) represent a class of adaptive search techniques inspired by natural evolution mechanisms. The search properties of GAs make them suitable to be used in machine learning processes and for developing fuzzy systems, the so-called genetic fuzzy systems (GFSs). In this contribution, we discuss genetics-based machine learning processes presenting the iterative rule learning approach, and a special kind of GFS, a multi-stage GFS based on the iterative rule learning approach, by...

Neural methods for obtaining fuzzy rules.

José Manuel Benítez, Armando Blanco, Miguel Delgado, Ignacio Requena (1996)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In previous papers, we presented an empirical methodology based on Neural Networks for obtaining fuzzy rules which allow a system to be described, using a set of examples with the corresponding inputs and outputs. Now that the previous results have been completed, we present another procedure for obtaining fuzzy rules, also based on Neural Networks with Backpropagation, with no need to establish beforehand the labels or values of the variables that govern the system.

Neural network based identification of hysteresis in human meridian systems

Yonghong Tan, Ruili Dong, Hui Chen, Hong He (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Developing a model based digital human meridian system is one of the interesting ways of understanding and improving acupuncture treatment, safety analysis for acupuncture operation, doctor training, or treatment scheme evaluation. In accomplishing this task, how to construct a proper model to describe the behavior of human meridian systems is one of the very important issues. From experiments, it has been found that the hysteresis phenomenon occurs in the relations between stimulation input and...

Neural network realizations of Bayes decision rules for exponentially distributed data

Igor Vajda, Belomír Lonek, Viktor Nikolov, Arnošt Veselý (1998)

Kybernetika

For general Bayes decision rules there are considered perceptron approximations based on sufficient statistics inputs. A particular attention is paid to Bayes discrimination and classification. In the case of exponentially distributed data with known model it is shown that a perceptron with one hidden layer is sufficient and the learning is restricted to synaptic weights of the output neuron. If only the dimension of the exponential model is known, then the number of hidden layers will increase...

Neural networks learning as a multiobjective optimal control problem.

Maciej Krawczak (1997)

Mathware and Soft Computing

The supervised learning process of multilayer feedforward neural networks can be considered as a class of multi-objective, multi-stage optimal control problem. An iterative parametric minimax method is proposed in which the original optimization problem is embedded into a weighted minimax formulation. The resulting auxiliary parametric optimization problems at the lower level have simple structures that are readily tackled by efficient solution methods, such as the dynamic programming or the error...

Neuro-fuzzy modelling based on a deterministic annealing approach

Robert Czabański (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

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 of the learning...

New aspects on extraction of fuzzy rules using neural networks.

José Manuel Benítez, Armando Blanco, Miguel Delgado, Ignacio Requena (1998)

Mathware and Soft Computing

In previous works, we have presented two methodologies to obtain fuzzy rules in order to describe the behaviour of a system. We have used Artificial Neural Netorks (ANN) with the Backpropagation algorithm, and a set of examples of the system. In this work, some modifications which allow to improve the results, by means of an adaptation or refinement of the variable labels in each rule, or the extraction of local rules using distributed ANN, are showed. An interesting application on the assignement...

Nonparametric statistical analysis for multiple comparison of machine learning regression algorithms

Bogdan Trawiński, Magdalena Smętek, Zbigniew Telec, Tadeusz Lasota (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In the paper we present some guidelines for the application of nonparametric statistical tests and post-hoc procedures devised to perform multiple comparisons of machine learning algorithms. We emphasize that it is necessary to distinguish between pairwise and multiple comparison tests. We show that the pairwise Wilcoxon test, when employed to multiple comparisons, will lead to overoptimistic conclusions. We carry out intensive normality examination employing ten different tests showing that the...

Note on universal algorithms for learning theory

Karol Dziedziul, Barbara Wolnik (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study the universal estimator for the regression problem in learning theory considered by Binev et al. This new approach allows us to improve their results.

On a result of K. P. Hart about non-existence of measurable solutions to the discrete expectation maximization problem

Vladimir G. Pestov (2023)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

It was shown that there is a statistical learning problem – a version of the expectation maximization (EMX) problem – whose consistency in a domain of cardinality continuum under the family of purely atomic probability measures and with finite hypotheses is equivalent to a version of the continuum hypothesis, and thus independent of ZFC. K. P. Hart had subsequently proved that no solution to the EMX problem can be Borel measurable with regard to an uncountable standard Borel structure on X , and...

On the comparison of some fuzzy clustering methods for privacy preserving data mining: Towards the development of specific information loss measures

Vicenç Torra, Yasunori Endo, Sadaaki Miyamoto (2009)

Kybernetika

Policy makers and researchers require raw data collected from agencies and companies for their analysis. Nevertheless, any transmission of data to third parties should satisfy some privacy requirements in order to avoid the disclosure of sensitive information. The areas of privacy preserving data mining and statistical disclosure control develop mechanisms for ensuring data privacy. Masking methods are one of such mechanisms. With them, third parties can do computations with a limited risk of disclosure....

On the learning of weights in some aggregation operators: the weigthed mean and OWA operators.

Vicenç Torra (1999)

Mathware and Soft Computing

We study the determination of weights for two types of aggregation operators: the weighted mean and the OWA operator. We assume that there is at our disposal a set of examples for which the outcome of the aggregation operator is known. In the case of the OWA operator, we compare the results obtained by our method with another one in the literature. We show that the optimal weighting vector is reached with less cost.
