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 late detection of the kick (the entrance of underground fluids into oil wells) leads to oil wellblowouts. it causes human life loss and imposes a great deal of expenses on the petroleum industry.this paper presents the application of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system designed for an earlierkick detection using measurable drilling parameters. in order to generate the initial fuzzy infere...

cloud computing is a new discussion in enterprise it. it has already become popular in terms of distributed technology in some companies. it enables managers to setup and run the intended businesses by avoiding excessive spending on computers, software and hiring expert staff, which proves to be cost effective. cloud computing also helps users pay for the it services without spending massive am...

water inflow is one of the most important challenges in the underground excavations. in addition to inducing working conditions and environmental problems, it decreases the stability and quality of the surrounding rocks. the direct method of measuring rock mass hydraulic conductivity consists of drilling the boreholes and observing the rate of fluid lost in the boreholes. applying this method i...

the main objective of this study is the modelling and optimization of an industrial hydrocracker unit (hu) by means of adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) model. in this case, some data were collected from an industrial hydrocracker plant. inputs of an anfis include flow rate of fresh feed and recycle hydrogen, temperature of reactors, mole percentage of h2 and h2s, feed flow rate and...

one-third of the people with an age over twenty have some signs of degenerated discs. however, in most of the patients the mere presence of degenerative discs is not a problem leading to pain, neurological compression, or other symptoms. this paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid rule-based system to diagnose the abnormal degenerated discs where pain variables are represented by interv...

A neuro-fuzzy system specially suited for efficient implementations is presented. The system is of the same type as the well-known “adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system” (ANFIS) method. However, different restrictions are applied to the system that considerably reduce the complexity of the inference mechanism. Hence, efficient implementations can be developed. Some experiments are pres...

Most fuzzy controllers and fuzzy expert systems must predefine membership functions and fuzzy inference rules to map numeric data into linguistic variable terms and to make fuzzy reasoning work. In this paper, we propose a general learning method as a framework for automatically deriving membership functions and fuzzy if-then rules from a set of given training examples to rapidly build a protot...
