This paper is the second of two companion papers. The foundations of the proposed method of heuristic constraint enforcement on membership functions for knowledge extraction from a fuzzy/neural architecture was given in Part I. Part II develops methods for forming constraint sets using the constraints and techniques for finding acceptable solutions that conform to all available a priori informa...

The UV-spectrophotometric method of analysis was proposed for simultaneous determination of fluoxetine (FLX) and sertraline (SRT). Considering the strong spectral overlap between UV-Vis spectra of these compounds, a previous separation should be carried out in order to determine them by conventional spectrophotometric techniques. Here, full-spectrum multivariate calibrations adaptive neuro-fuzz...

Regression analysis is an area of statistics that deals with the investigation of the dependence of a variable upon one or more variables. Recently, much research has studied fuzzy estimation. There are some approaches existing in the literature for the estimation of the fuzzy regression model. Two of them are frequently used in parameter estimation, one of which is proposed by Tanaka et al [21...

background: since the industrial revolution, the rate of industrialization and urbanization has increased dramatically. regarding this issue, specific regions mostly located in developing countries have been confronted with serious problems, particularly environmental problems among which air pollution is of high importance. methods: eleven parameters, including co, so 2 , pm 10 , pm 2.5 , o 3 ...

This paper presents the development and design of a graphical user interface and a command line programming toolbox for construction, edition and observation of Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference Systems. The Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic System Toolbox (IT2FLS), is an environment for interval type-2 fuzzy logic inference system development. Tools that cover the different phases of the fuzzy system ...

some applications are critical and must designed fault tolerant system. usually voting algorithm is one of the principle elements of a fault tolerant system. two kinds of voting algorithm are used in most applications, they are majority voting algorithm and weighted average algorithm these algorithms have some problems. majority confronts with the problem of threshold limits and voter of weight...

background : drivers are vulnerable to musculoskeletal and psychological disorders because of substantially harmful agents in this stressful occupation. this study aims to investigate the influence of driver’s physical and psychological health on the risk of road accidents using fuzzy logic approach. methods : two input variables including musculoskeletal disorders (msds) and mental health, alo...

System modelling based on conventional mathematical tools like differential equations is not well suited for dealing with ill-defined and uncertain systems. By contrast, a fuzzy inference system, employing fuzzy if–then rules can model the qualitative aspects of human knowledge and reasoning processes without employing precise quantitative analyses. This fuzzy modeling or fuzzy identification e...

prompt detection and diagnosis of faults in industrial systems areessential to minimize the production losses, increase the safety of the operatorand the equipment. several techniques are available in the literature to achievethese objectives. this paper presents fuzzy based control and fault detection for a6/4 switched reluctance motor. the fuzzy logic control performs like a classicalproporti...

Many researchers have been interested in approximation properties of fuzzy logic systems (FLS), which like neural networks can be seen as approximation schemes. Almost all of them tackled Mamdani fuzzy model, which was shown to have many interesting features. This paper aims to present alternatives for traditional inference mechanisms and CRI method. The most attractive advantage of these new m...
