چکیده

Abstract. Generalized relevance learning vector quantization (GRLVQ) [4] constitutes a prototype based clustering algorithm based on LVQ [5] with energy function and adaptive metric. We propose a method for extracting logical rules from a trained GRLVQ-network. Real valued attributes are automatically transformed to symbolic values. The rules are given in the form of a decision tree yielding several advantages: hybrid symbolic/subsymbolic descriptions can be obtained as an alternative and the complexity of the rules can be controlled.

Rule Extraction from Dynamic Cell Structure Neural Networks by Modified LREX Algorithm-A Comparative Study

The semantic of neural networks is not explicit and they are considered as black box systems. There are many researches investigating the area of rule extraction by neural networks. In this paper, the eclectic approach of rule extraction from a dynamic cell structure (DCS) neural network is investigated. To do this, a modified version of LERX algorithm is used for rule generation. Empirical res...

Modified Self-organizing Maps for Line Extraction in Digitized Text Documents

. Different authors have developed modifications of the Kohonen Self-Organizing Maps to solve known combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper a modification of the Kohonen Map is proposed to solve the detection of white inter-text spaces in a digitized plain text documents. The idea relies on the fact that line extraction problem has several features which match easily with Kohonen net...

Kohonen Self Organizing for Automatic Identification of Cartographic Objects

Automatic identification and localization of cartographic objects in aerial and satellite images have gained increasing attention in recent years in digital photogrammetry and remote sensing. Although the automatic extraction of man made objects in essence is still an unresolved issue, the man made objects can be extracted from aerial photos and satellite images. Recently, the high-resolution s...

An adaptive fuzzy rule extraction using hybrid model of the fuzzy self-organizing map and the genetic algorithm with numerical chromosomes

In this paper, we propose a hybrid model of the fuzzi-ed Kohonen's Self-Organizing Map and the GA with numerical chromosomes, and automatic fuzzy rule extraction method that uses our model. It is shown that our hybrid model is superior to both of the individual models in cases where there is a tendency for data to change dynamically and quickly.
