Swelling in compacted soils may lead to some damages structures and buildings. For the sake of reducing such damages, soil swelling should be determined, so as make exhibit adequate resistance against a phenomenon. most cases, fully non-linear relations have been observed between parameters contributing soil. As such, determined via either experimentations or prediction models. However, being e...

Pyrite oxidation, Acid Rock Drainage (ARD) generation, and associated release and transport of toxic metals are a major environmental concern for the mining industry. Estimation of the metal loading in ARD is a major task in developing an appropriate remediation strategy. In this study, an expert system, the Multi-Output Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (MANFIS), was used for estimation of...

Inverse kinematics of robots is a critical topic in the robotics field. Although there are conventional ways solving inverse kinematics, soft computing an important technology that has lately gained prominence due to its ability reduce complexity problem. This paper presents solution using multiple adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (MANFIS). Different models were established by employing v...

The Chiu’s method which generates a Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) is a method of fuzzy rules extraction. The rules output is a linear function of inputs. In addition, these rules are not explicit for the expert. In this paper, we develop a method which generates Mamdani FIS, where the rules output is fuzzy. The method proceeds in two steps: first, it uses the subtractive clustering...

The Fuzzy hybridization technique for intelligent systems have become of research interests in a variety of research areas over the past decade. There are limitations faced by all popular fuzzy systems architectures when they are applied to applications with a large number of inputs (more than three). The present paper proposes a novel adaptive fuzzy inference system for multi-sensors mobile ro...

this paper presents a comparative study between three versions of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) algorithms and a pseudo-forward equation (pfe) to characterize the north sea reservoir (f3 block) based on seismic data. according to the statistical studies, four attributes (energy, envelope, spectral decomposition and similarity) are known to be useful as fundamental attributes in ...

The size of everyday data sets is outpacing the capability of computational hardware to analyze these data sets. Social networking and mobile computing alone are producing data sets that are growing by terabytes every day. Because these data often cannot be loaded into a computer’s working memory, most literal algorithms (algorithms that require access to the full data set) cannot be used. One ...

Data clustering is a process of putting similar data into groups. A clustering algorithm partitions a data set into several groups such that the similarity within a group is larger than among groups. This paper reviews four of the most representative off-line clustering techniques: K-means clustering, Fuzzy Cmeans clustering, Mountain clustering, and Subtractive clustering. The techniques are i...
