This paper describes a neuro-fuzzy modeling framework for predicting the properties of ashes originated from combustion processes for electric generation. The prediction problem is tackled by means of a neuro-fuzzy system in which a neural network and a fuzzy system are combined in a fused architecture, so that the structure and the parameters of the fuzzy rule base are determined via a two-pha...

in this research, pomegranate arils are dehydrated by osmotic dehydration in 40, 50, and 60 % sucrose ‎solutions and at 45, 55 and 65 degrees c‎‏ ‏‎ and weight reduction, solids grain and water loss of the products ‎were measured at 60, 120 and 180 minutes of process. osmotic dehydration processes was modeled by ‎combination of neural network and fuzzy logic techniques (neuro-fuzzy) and respons...

In the current research, neuro-fuzzy model and regression model was developed to predict Material Removal Rate in Electrical Discharge Machining process for AISI D2 tool steel with copper electrode. Extensive experiments were conducted with various levels of discharge current, pulse duration and duty cycle. The experimental data are split into two sets, one for training and the other for valida...

In this paper discrete choice models, Logit and Probit are examined in order to predict the economic recession or expansion periods in USA. Additionally we propose an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system with triangular membership function. We examine the in-sample period 1947-2005 and we test the models in the out-of sample period 2006-2009. The forecasting results indicate that the Adaptive ...

The present article is a novel attempt in providing an exhaustive survey of neuro-fuzzy rule generation algorithms. Rule generation from artificial neural networks is gaining in popularity in recent times due to its capability of providing some insight to the user about the symbolic knowledge embedded within the network. Fuzzy sets are an aid in providing this information in a more human compre...

The implementation of a Neuro-Fuzzy nonlinear adaptive structure, with Local Linear Models (LLM), designed for fuel pressure estimation in diesel common-rail (CR) hydraulic system, represents the main topic. Hydraulic systems, in general, are nonlinear and engineers have often struggled to find the best solution to approximate the input-output dependencies. Powerful tools are necessary for spli...

The paper presents a short review how to use feedforward neural networks for non-linear system identification, with application at the neural implementation of a fuzzy system. In this application the inputoutput transfer characteristics of the fuzzy system are used to evaluate the accuracy of the identification results expressed for a neuro-fuzzy model. This method could be used for identificat...
