Analyzing the reasoning mechanisms in fuzzy rule based classification systems.
Fuzzy Rule-Based Systems have been succesfully applied to pattern classification problems. In this type of classification systems, the classical Fuzzy Reasoning Method classifies a new example with the consequent of the rule with the greatest degree of association. By using this reasoning method, we do not consider the information provided by the other rules that are also compatible (have also been fired) with this example.In this paper we analyze this problem and propose to use FRMs that combine...
