since the pioneering work of zadeh, fuzzy set theory has been applied to amyriad of areas. song and chissom introduced the concept of fuzzy time series andapplied some methods to the enrolments of the university of alabama. thereafter weapply fuzzy techniques for system identification and apply statistical techniques tomodelling system. an automatic methodology framework that combines fuzzytech...

A hybrid neural network regression models with unsupervised fuzzy clustering is proposed for clustering nonparametric regression models for datasets. In the new formulation, (i) the performance function of the neural network regression models is modified such that the fuzzy clustering weightings can be introduced in these network models; (ii) the errors of these network models are feed-backed i...

In a great deal of literature on fuzzy regression analysis, most of research has focused on some predefined parametric forms of fuzzy regression relationships, especially on the fuzzy linear regression models. In many practical situations, it may be unrealistic to predetermine a fuzzy parametric regression relationship. In this paper, a fuzzy nonparametric model with crisp input and LR fuzzy ou...

reference curves are useful tools to monitor children’s growth status and can promote growth velocity in infants. in this regard, various parametric and semi-parametric methods are frequently used in the last decades. in the present paper, nonparametric quintile regression method is used as a powerful and applicable methodology to estimate height curves and normal values of height-for-age in ch...

ÐA fuzzy decision tree is constructed by allowing the possibility of partial membership of a point in the nodes that make up the tree structure. This extension of its expressive capabilities transforms the decision tree into a powerful functional approximant that incorporates features of connectionist methods, while remaining easily interpretable. Fuzzification is achieved by superimposing a fu...
