suitable soil structure is important for crop growth. one of the main characteristics of soil structure is the size of soil aggregates. there are several ways of showing the stability of soil aggregates, among which the determination of the median weight diameter of soil aggregates is the most common method. in this paper, a method based on adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) was used...

implementation of enterprise resource planning has had a chaotic history in which many projects ended successfully and many failed or ended without approaching the predetermined objectives. this research, in terms of purpose, is considered fundamental since it designs a new system for solving a fundamental problem and it is also an applied research because the research result is deployed in the...

Weather prediction is an ever challenging area of investigation for scientists. The Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) has been widely used for modeling different kinds of nonlinear systems including rainfall forecasting. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS) combines the capabilities of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Fuzzy Inference Systems (FIS) to solve different ki...

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...

Recently the number of distance education platforms has been increased significantly. These platforms provide isolation between the student and teacher. Thus, there is a need for predicting the students who are possible to fail in a specific course and take the precautions like starting face-to-face on demand lectures for individual cases. Both of artificial intelligence and data mining techniq...

In this paper, an adaptive neuro fuzzy sliding mode based genetic algorithm (ANFSGA) controlsystem is proposed for a pH neutralization system. In pH reactors, determination and control of pH isa common problem concerning chemical-based industrial processes due to the non-linearity observedin the titration curve. An ANFSGA control system is designed to overcome the complexity of precisecontrol o...

Maintenance plays now a critical role in manufacturing for achieving important cost savings and competitive advantage while preserving product conditions. It suggests moving from conventional maintenance practices to predictive strategy. Indeed the maintenance action has to be done at the right time based on the system performance and component Remaining Useful Life (RUL) assessed by a prognost...

Accurate and robust estimation of applied forces in Robotic-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery is a very challenging task. Many vision-based solutions attempt to estimate the force by measuring the surface deformation after contacting the surgical tool. However, visual uncertainty, due to tool occlusion, is a major concern and can highly affect the results’ precision. In this paper, a novel de...

A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is designed to maintain constant tension for tandem rolling mills. Envisioning fuzzy inference system as neural network and introducing tutor, backward propagation algorithm is used as self-organization technique for FLC to approach the best parameters under supervision. Simulation results exhibit the generalization and adaptivity of neuro-fuzzy controller in offl...

Gas turbines are currently a popular power generation technology in countries with access to natural gas resources. However they are very complex systems the operation of which at peak performance is challenging. This paper proposes the use of a hybrid approach based on an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for the control of the speed and the exhaust temperature of a gas turbine. Th...
