In this paper performance of Puma 560 manipulator is being compared for hybrid gradient descent and least square method learning based ANFIS controller with hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Generalized Pattern Search tuned radial basis function based Neuro-Fuzzy controller. ANFIS which is based on Takagi Sugeno type Fuzzy controller needs prior knowledge of rule base while in radial basis function ...

In the radiation treatment of moving targets with external surrogates, information on tumor position in real time can be extracted by using accurate correlation models. A fuzzy environment is proposed here to correlate input surrogate data with tumor motion estimates in real time. In this study, two different data clustering approaches were analyzed due to their substantial effects on the fuzzy...

Forecasting airborne pollen concentrations is one of the most studied topics in aerobiology, due to its crucial application to allergology. The most used tools for this problem are single lineal regressions and autoregressive models (ARIMA). Notwithstanding, few works have used more sophisticated tools based in Artificial Intelligence, as are neural or neuro-fuzzy models. In this work, we appli...

In this paper, a novel self-generating neuro-fuzzy system through reinforcements is proposed. Not only the weights of the network but also the architecture of the whole network are all learned through reinforcement learning. The proposed neuro-fuzzy system is applied to the inverted pendulum system to demonstrate its performance. Key-words: reinforcement learning, neural network, neuro-fuzzy sy...

This paper presents a novel adaptive neuro-fuzzy based speed controller for vector controlled induction motor drive. The proposed neuro-fuzzy controller incorporates fuzzy logic algorithm with a five-layer artificial neural network (ANN) structure. The conventional PI controller is replaced by Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), which tunes the fuzzy inference system with hybrid lear...

Maintenance plays now a critical role in manufacturing for achieving important cost savings and competitive advantage while preserving product conditions. It suggests moving from conventional maintenance practices to predictive strategy. Indeed the maintenance action has to be done at the right time based on the system performance and component Remaining Useful Life (RUL) assessed by a prognost...

Electrical conductivity is an important indicator for water quality assessment. Since the composition of mineral salts affects the electrical conductivity of groundwater, it is important to understand the relationships between mineral salt composition and electrical conductivity. In this present paper, we develop an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model for groundwater electrical ...
