Proportional + Integral + Derivative (PID) controllers are widely used in engineering applications such that more than half of the industrial controllers are PID controllers. There are many methods for tuning the PID parameters in the literature. In this paper an intelligent technique based on eXtended Classifier System (XCS) is presented to tune the PID controller parameters. The PID controlle...

There are several studies about extended classification system (XCS) in past years. XCS model can dynamically learn and adapt to the change of environments for maximizing the desired goals. This paper conducts simulation to apply XCS to global asset allocation in the country-specific exchanged traded funds (ETFs). Since international stock price trend is influenced by unknown and unpredictable ...

Recognizing that many payoff functions are continuous and depend on the input state x, the classifier system architecture XCS is extended so that a classifier’s prediction is a linear function of x. On a continuous nonlinear problem, the extended system, XCS-LP, exhibits high performance and low error, as well as dramatically smaller evolved populations compared with XCS. Linear predictions are...

Many robotic sensor estimation problems can characterized in terms of nonlinear measurement systems. These systems are contaminated with noise and may be underdetermined from a single observation. In order to get reliable estimation results, the system must choose views which result in an overdetermined system. This is the sensor control problem. Accurate and reliable sensor control requires an...

This work proposes an extended version of the well-known tree-augmented naive Bayes (TAN) classifier where the structure learning step is performed without requiring features to be connected to the class. Based on a modification of Edmonds’ algorithm, our structure learning procedure explores a superset of the structures that are considered by TAN, yet achieves global optimality of the learning...

The extended classifier systems (XCS) by producing a set of rules is (classifier) trying to solve learning problems as online. XCS is a rather complex combination of genetic algorithm and reinforcement learning that using genetic algorithm tries to discover the encouraging rules and value them by reinforcement learning. Among the important factors in the performance of XCS is the possibility to...

We present an online technique to estimate the generality of classifiers conditions. We show that this technique can be extended to gather some basic information about the effect of classifier actions in the environment. The approach we present is minimalist in that it is aimed at obtaining as much information as possible from online experience, with as few modifications as possible to the clas...
