Modeling and prediction in some systems requires the simultaneous approximation of mappings and their derivatives to a certain finite order. In this paper, universal approximation capabilities of fuzzy systems are extended to this situation, by showing the denseness of some general classes of fuzzy models in appropriate function spaces where distance between functions is defined in terms of the...

Due to their powerful optimization property, genetic algorithms (GAs) are currently being investigated for the development of adaptive or self-tuning fuzzy logic control systems. This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy logic controller (NFLC) where all of its parameters can be tuned simultaneously by GA. The structure of the controller is based on the radial basis function neural network (RBF) with G...

This paper shows a fuzzy logic speech/non-speech discrimination method for improving the performance of speech processing systems working in noise environments. The fuzzy system is based on a Sugeno inference engine with membership functions defined as combination of two Gaussian functions. The rule base consists of ten fuzzy if then statements defined in terms of the denoised subband signal-to...

in this paper, the detector of moving target in mimo radar with widely separated antenna in the presence of α-stable clutter is proposed. due to the complexity of unknown parameter estimation in the presence of target, the rao test is applied. the α-stable model is a general model that can applied to different environments with appropriate selection of parameters. the problem with this model is...

this paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (fgp) methodology for solving bi-level quadratic programming (blqp) problems. in the fgp model formulation, firstly the objectives are transformed into fuzzy goals (membership functions) by means of assigning an aspiration level to each of them, and suitable membership function is defined for each objectives, and also the membership functions for vec...

Measurement results contain different kinds of uncertainty. Besides systematic errors andrandom errors individual measurement results are also subject to another type of uncertainty,so-called emph{fuzziness}. It turns out that special fuzzy subsets of the set of real numbers $RR$are useful to model fuzziness of measurement results. These fuzzy subsets $x^*$ are called emph{fuzzy numbers}. The m...

the purpose of this study is to investigate the accuracy of predictions of aniline removal efficiency in a moving bed biofilm reactor (mbbr) by various methods, namely by rbf, anfis, and fuzzy regression analysis. the reactor was operated in an aerobic batch and was filled by light expanded clay aggregate (leca) as a carrier for the treatment of aniline synthetic wastewater. exploratory data an...

the impact of air pollution and environmental issues on public health is one of the main topics studied in manycities around the world. ozone is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global climate. this study was conducted topredict and model ozone of yazd in the lower atmosphere by an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis). allthe data were extracted from 721 samples collected daily ove...

The estimation of the fuzzy membership function parameters for interval type 2 logic system (IT2-FLS) is a challenging task in presence uncertainty and imprecision. Grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) fresh population based meta-heuristic that mimics swarming behavior grasshoppers nature, which has good convergence ability towards optima. main objective this paper to apply GOA estimate opt...
