short term prediction of traffic flow is one of the most essential elements of all proactive traffic control systems. although various methodologies have been applied to forecast traffic parameters, several researchers have showed that compared with the individual methods, hybrid methods provide more accurate results . these results made the hybrid tools and approaches a more common method for ...

in the paper a model to predict the concentrations of particulate matter pm10, pm2.5, so2, no, co and o3 for a chosen number of hours forward is proposed. the method requires historical data for a large number of points in time, particularly weather forecast data, actual weather data and pollution data. the idea is that by matching forecast data with similar forecast data in the historical data...

background: noise prediction is considered to be the best method for evaluating cost-preventative noise controls in industrial workrooms. one of the most important issues is the development of accurate models for analysis of the complex relationships among acoustic features affecting noise level in workrooms. in this study, advanced fuzzy approaches were employed to develop relatively accurate ...

This paper presents a mathematical model for a flow shop scheduling problem consisting of m machine and n jobs with fuzzy processing times that can be estimated as independent stochastic or fuzzy numbers. In the traditional flow shop scheduling problem, the typical objective is to minimize the makespan). However,, two significant criteria for each schedule in stochastic models are: expectable m...

In this paper, a new approach is presented to fit arobust fuzzy regression model based on some fuzzy quantities. Inthis approach, we first introduce a new distance between two fuzzynumbers using the kernel function, and then, based on the leastsquares method, the parameters of fuzzy regression model isestimated. The proposed approach has a suitable performance to<b...

In this paper, a new T-S fuzzy hyperbolic delay model for a class of nonlinear systems with time-varying delay, is presented to address the problems of stability analysis and feedback control. Fuzzy controller is designed based on the parallel distributed compensation (PDC), and with a new Lyapunov function, delay dependent asymptotic stability conditions of the closed-loop system are derived v...

in this paper a non linear integrated fuzzy multi-objective production planning model with the labor learning and machines deterioration effects is presented. the objective function consists of two quantitative objectives namely increase profits and reduces the cost of system failure and a qualitative objective namely increases the satisfaction rate of the customers. different weights for objec...

this paper presents fuzzy and conventional performance of model reference adaptive control(mrac) to control a dc drive. the aims of this work are achieving better match of motor speed with reference speed, decrease of noises under load changes and disturbances, and increase of system stability. the operation of nonadaptive control and the model reference of fuzzy and conventional adaptive contr...

The fuzzy linear regression model with fuzzy input-output data andcrisp coefficients is studied in this paper. A linear programmingmodel based on goal programming is proposed to calculate theregression coefficients. In contrast with most of the previous works, theproposed model takes into account the centers of fuzzy data as animportant feature as well as their spreads in the procedure ofconstr...
