Quantitative Measures of the Accuracy, Comprehensibility, and Completeness of a Fuzzy Expert System

چکیده
Abstract: Using optimization tools such as genetic algorithms to construct a fuzzy expert system (FES) focusing only on its accuracy without considering comprehensibility may result in a system that is not easy to understand or so called a black box model. To exploit the transparency features of FESs for explanation in higher-level knowledge representation, a FES should provide high comprehensibility while preserving its accuracy. The completeness of fuzzy sets and rule structures should also be considered to guarantee that every data point has a response output. This paper proposes some quantitative measures to determine the degree of the accuracy, the comprehensibility, and the completeness of FESs. These quantitative measures are then used as a fitness function for a genetic algorithm in optimally building a FES.
