Realization of a multilayer photonic process, as well co-integration large number and electronic components on single substrate, presents many advantages over conventional solutions opens pathway for various novel architectures applications. Despite the potential advantages, realization complex process compatible with low-cost CMOS platforms remains challenging. In this paper, platform is inves...

A neuro-fuzzy system based on a radial basis function network and using support vector learning is considered for non-linear modeling. In order to reduce the number of fuzzy rules, and improve the system interpretability, the proposed method proceeds in two phases. Firstly, the input-output data is clustered according to the subtractive clustering method. Secondly the parameters of the network,...

Amethodology for automatically identifying and clustering semantic features or topics in a heterogeneous text collection is presented. Textual data is encoded using a low rank nonnegative matrix factorization algorithm to retain natural data nonnegativity, thereby eliminating the need to use subtractive basis vector and encoding calculations present in other techniques such as principal compone...

In this paper, subtractive clustering method is combined with least squares estimation algorithms to pre-identify a type-1 Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy model from input/output data. Then the type-2 fuzzy theory is used to expand the type-1 model to a type-2 model. A sensitivity analysis is used to ascertain how a type-1 TSK model output depends upon the pre-initialized parameters and determin...

This paper proposes an effective memetic Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) that utilizes Solis and Wets’ (SW) algorithm as local search. GSA has good exploration ability and SW helps to improve the exploitation ability of the memetic algorithm. Furthermore, a selection strategy is proposed to select suitable individuals for local refinement that is based on subtractive clustering. Proposed m...

This paper investigates the effectiveness of four different soft computing methods, namely radial basis neural network (RBNN), adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) with subtractive clustering (ANFIS-SC), ANFIS with fuzzy c-means clustering (ANFIS-FCM) and M5 model tree (M5Tree), for predicting the ultimate strength and strain of concrete cylinders confined with fiber-reinforced polymer...

This paper presents a framework for the detection of semantic features in video sequences. Low-level feature extraction is performed on the keyframes of the shots and a “feature vector” including color and texture features is formed. A region “thesaurus” that contains all the high-level features is constructed using a subtractive clustering method.Then, a “model vector” that contains the distan...

Reliable prediction of cutting forces is essential for micromilling. In this paper, a fuzzy cutting force modelling method based on subtractive clustering method filters the noise and estimates the instantaneous cutting forces using observations acquired by sensors during cutting experiments. In the experimental case study, four data sets of micromilling cutting force are used. Each data set is...

We present an efficient method for extracting fuzzy classification rules from high dimensional data. A cluster estimation method called subtractive clustering is used to efficiently extract rules from a high dimensional feature space. A complementary search method can quickly identify the important input features from the resultant high dimensional fuzzy classifier, and thus provides the abilit...
