Understanding the Inference Mechanism of FURIA by means of Fingrams
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows the use of Fingrams –Fuzzy Inference-grams– aimed at unveiling graphically some hidden details in the usual behavior of the precise fuzzy modeling algorithm FURIA –Fuzzy Unordered Rule Induction Algorithm–. FURIA is recognized as one of the most outstanding fuzzy rule-based classification methods attending to accuracy. Although FURIA usually produces compact rule bases, with low number of rules and antecedents per rule, its interpretability is arguable, being penalized by the absence of linguistic readability and a complex inference mechanism. Fingrams offer a methodology for visual representation and exploratory analysis of fuzzy rule-based systems. FURIA-Fingrams, i.e. fuzzy inference-grams representing fuzzy systems learnt with FURIA, make easier understanding the FURIA inference mechanism thanks to the possibilities they offer: detecting instances not covered by any rule; highlighting important rules; clarifying the so-called stretching mechanism; etc.

Quest for Interpretability-Accuracy Trade-off Supported by Fingrams into the Fuzzy Modeling Tool GUAJE
Understand the behavior of Fuzzy Rule-based Systems (FRBSs) at inference level is a complex task that allows the designer to produce simpler and powerful systems. The fuzzy inference-grams –known as fingrams– establish a novel and mighty tool for understanding the structure and behavior of fuzzy systems. Fingrams represent FRBSs as social networks made of nodes representing fuzzy rules and edge...
متن کاملAnalyzing interpretability of fuzzy rule-based systems by means of fuzzy inference-grams
Since the proposal of Zadeh and Mamdani’s seminal ideas, interpretability is acknowledged as one of the most appreciated and valuable characteristics of fuzzy system identification methodologies. It represents the ability of fuzzy systems to formalize the behavior of a real system in a human understandable way. Interpretability analysis involves two main points of view: readability of the knowl...
متن کاملInterpretability analysis of fuzzy association rules supported by fingrams
This work extends fuzzy inference-grams (fingrams) to fuzzy association rules (FAR), yielding FARFingrams. Their analysis pays attention to interpretability issues. An important open problem in association rule mining is the huge number of frequent itemsets and interesting rules to uncover and communicate to the user. FAR-Fingrams address such problem through visual analysis. They ease the sele...
متن کاملEstimate Output of a Production Unit in Production Possibility Set with Fuzzy Inference Mechanism
In this paper, we consider the production possibility set with n production units such that the following four principles that governs: inclusion observations, conceivability, immensity and convexity. Our goal is to estimate the output of a same and new production unit with existing production possibility and amount of input is specified. So, initially we find the interval changes of each input...
متن کاملOptimization and design of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System using Particle Swarm Optimization and Fuzzy C-Means Clustering to predict the scour after bucket spillway
Additionally, if the materials at downstream of bucket spillway are erodible, the ogee spillway is likely to overturn by the time. Therefore, the prediction of the scour after bucket spillway is pretty important. In this study, the scour depths at downstream of bucket spillway are modeled using a new meta-heuristic model. This model is developed by combination of the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Infere...
