Fuzzy inference systems and neural networks are complementary technologies in the design of adaptive intelligent systems. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) learns from scratch by adjusting the interconnections between layers. Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) is a popular computing framework based on the concept of fuzzy set theory, fuzzy if-then rules, and fuzzy reasoning. A neuro-fuzzy system is sim...

The authors propose an automated neuro-fuzzy system approach (with neural network subsystem) to power quality assessment incorporating equipment susceptibility patterns. The system is expected to handle dependencies between superposition of different disturbances and specific devices’ susceptibility to disturbances. Two neural network architectures were applied: a well known radial-basis neural...

Neuro-fuzzy computing, which provides efficient information processing capability by devising methodologies and algorithms for modeling uncertainty and imprecise information, forms at this juncture, a key component of soft computing. An integrated neuro-fuzzy system is simply a fuzzy inference system trained by a neural networklearning algorithm. The learning mechanism fine-tunes the underlying...

We present an application of type-2 neuro-fuzzy modeling to stock price prediction based on a given set of training data. Type-2 fuzzy rules can be generated automatically by a self-constructing clustering method and the obtained type-2 fuzzy rules cab be refined by a hybrid learning algorithm. The given training data set is partitioned into clusters through input-similarity and output-similari...
