In the present study, two new hybrid approaches are proposed for predicting peak ground acceleration (PGA) parameter. The proposed approaches are based on the combinations of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy System (ANFIS) with Genetic Algorithm (GA), and with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). In these approaches, the PSO and GA algorithms are employed to enhance the accuracy of ANFIS model. To develop hy...

There has been a growing interest in combining both neural network and fuzzy system, and as a result, neuro-fuzzy computing techniques have been evolved. ANFIS (adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system) model combined the neural network adaptive capabilities and the fuzzy logic qualitative approach. In this paper, a novel structure of unsupervised ANFIS is presented to solve differential e...

This paper describes a comparative evaluation of two fuzzy-derived techniques for modelling fuel spray penetration in the cylinders of a diesel internal combustion engine. The first model is implemented using conventional fuzzy-based paradigm, where human expertise and operator knowledge were used to select the parameters for the system. The second model used an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference s...

This paper presents a comparative study between three versions of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) algorithms and a pseudo-forward equation (PFE) to characterize the North Sea reservoir (F3 block) based on seismic data. According to the statistical studies, four attributes (energy, envelope, spectral decomposition and similarity) are known to be useful as fundamental attributes in ...

Several models have been created for Smart Grid resource-allocation problem. The principal purpose of the models is to connect power sources with appropriate sinks when considering the input parameters of power balance and consumption size, etc. Fuzzy logic is representative of these models. When creating the fuzzy model, the parameters and rule construction play the most significant role. For ...

A method based on adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for computing the effective permittivity and the characteristic impedance of the micro-coplanar strip (MCS) line is presented. The ANFIS is a class of adaptive networks which are functionally equivalent to fuzzy inference systems (FISs). A hybrid learning algorithm, which combines the least square method and the backpropagation alg...

The application of the neuro-fuzzy inference system to predict the compressive strength of concrete is presented in this study. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is introduced for training and testing the data sets consisting of various parameters. To investigate the influence of various parameters which affect the compressive strength, 1551 data pairs are collected from the tec...

In this paper a pose invariant face recognition using neuro-fuzzy approach is proposed. Here adaptive neuro fuzzy interface system (ANFIS) classifier is used as neuro-fuzzy approach for pose invariant face recognition. In the proposed approach the preprocessing of image is done by using adaptive median filter. It removes the salt pepper noise from the original images. From these denoised images...

Swelling in compacted soils may lead to some damages structures and buildings. For the sake of reducing such damages, soil swelling should be determined, so as make exhibit adequate resistance against a phenomenon. most cases, fully non-linear relations have been observed between parameters contributing soil. As such, determined via either experimentations or prediction models. However, being e...
