Text categorization based on fuzzy classification rules tree

To deal with the problem that arises when the conventional fuzzy class-association method applies repetitive scans of the classifier to classify new texts,which has low efficiency, a new approach based on the FCR-tree（fuzzy classification rules tree）for text categorization is proposed.The compactness of the FCR-tree saves significant space in storing a large set of rules when there are many repeated words in the rules.In comparison with classification rules,the fuzzy classification rules contain not only words,but also the fuzzy sets corresponding to the frequencies of words appearing in texts.Therefore,the construction of an FCR-tree and its structure are different from a CR-tree.To debase the difficulty of FCR-tree construction and rules retrieval,more k-FCR-trees are built.When classifying a new text,it is not necessary to search the paths of the sub-trees led by those words not appearing in this text,thus reducing the number of traveling rules.Experimental results show that the proposed approach obviously outperforms the conventional method in efficiency.

A Pattern Classification Model for Vowel Data Using Fuzzy Nearest Neighbor

Classification of the patterns is a crucial structure of research and applications. Using fuzzy set theory, classifying the patterns has become of great interest because of its ability to understand the parameters. One of the problemsobserved in the fuzzification of an unknown pattern is that importance is givenonly to the known patterns but not to their features. In contrast, features of thepatterns play an essential role when their respective patterns overlap. In this paper,an optimal fuzzy nearest neighbor model has been introduced in which a fuzzifi-cation process has been carried out for the unknown pattern using k nearest neighbor. With the help of the fuzzification process, the membership matrix has beenformed. In this membership matrix, fuzzification has been carried out of the features of the unknown pattern. Classification results are verified on a completelyllabelled Telugu vowel data set, and the accuracy is compared with the differentmodels and the fuzzy k nearest neighbor algorithm. The proposed model gives84.86% accuracy on 50% training data set and 89.35% accuracy on 80% trainingdata set. The proposed classifier learns well enough with a small amount of training data, resulting in an efficient and faster approach.

Watershed classification by remote sensing indices： A fuzzy c-means clustering approach

Determining the relatively similar hydrological properties of the watersheds is very crucial in order to readily classify them for management practices such as flood and soil erosion control. This study aimed to identify homogeneous hydrological watersheds using remote sensing data in western Iran. To achieve this goal, remote sensing indices including SAVI, LAI, NDMI, NDVI and snow cover, were extracted from MODIS data over the period 2000 to 2015. Then, a fuzzy method was used to clustering the watersheds based on the extracted indices. A fuzzy c-mean(FCM) algorithm enabled to classify 38 watersheds in three homogeneous groups.The optimal number of clusters was determined through evaluation of partition coefficient, partition entropy function and trial and error. The results indicated three homogeneous regions identified by the fuzzy c-mean clustering and remote sensing product which are consistent with the variations of topography and climate of the study area. Inherently,the grouped watersheds have similar hydrological properties and are likely to need similar management considerations and measures.

THRFuzzy:Tangential holoentropy-enabled rough fuzzy classifier to classification of evolving data streams

The rapid developments in the fields of telecommunication, sensor data, financial applications, analyzing of data streams, and so on, increase the rate of data arrival, among which the data mining technique is considered a vital process. The data analysis process consists of different tasks, among which the data stream classification approaches face more challenges than the other commonly used techniques. Even though the classification is a continuous process, it requires a design that can adapt the classification model so as to adjust the concept change or the boundary change between the classes. Hence, we design a novel fuzzy classifier known as THRFuzzy to classify new incoming data streams. Rough set theory along with tangential holoentropy function helps in the designing the dynamic classification model. The classification approach uses kernel fuzzy c-means(FCM) clustering for the generation of the rules and tangential holoentropy function to update the membership function. The performance of the proposed THRFuzzy method is verified using three datasets, namely skin segmentation, localization, and breast cancer datasets, and the evaluated metrics, accuracy and time, comparing its performance with HRFuzzy and adaptive k-NN classifiers. The experimental results conclude that THRFuzzy classifier shows better classification results providing a maximum accuracy consuming a minimal time than the existing classifiers.

Health monitoring of time-varying stochastic structures by latent components and fuzzy expert system

In this paper, a novel parametric model-based decomposition method is proposed for structural health monitoring of time-varying structures. For this purpose, the advanced Functional-Series Time-dependent Auto Regressive Moving Average （FS-TARMA） technique is used to estimate the parameters and innovation variance used in the parametric signal decomposition scheme. Additionally, a unique feature extraction and reduction method based on the decomposed signals, known as Latent Components （LCs）, is proposed. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed method, numerical simulation and an experimental study in the laboratory were conducted on a time-varying structure, where various types of damage were introduced. The Fuzzy Expert System （FES） was used as a classification toot to demonstrate that the proposed method successfully identifies different structural conditions when compared with other methods based on non-reduced and ordinary feature extraction.

A New Fuzzy Adaptive Algorithm to Classify Imbalanced Data

Classification of imbalanced data is a well explored issue in the data mining and machine learning community where one class representation is overwhelmed by other classes.The Imbalanced distribution of data is a natural occurrence in real world datasets,so needed to be dealt with carefully to get important insights.In case of imbalance in data sets,traditional classifiers have to sacrifice their performances,therefore lead to misclassifications.This paper suggests a weighted nearest neighbor approach in a fuzzy manner to deal with this issue.We have adapted the‘existing algorithm modification solution’to learn from imbalanced datasets that classify data without manipulating the natural distribution of data unlike the other popular data balancing methods.The K nearest neighbor is a non-parametric classification method that is mostly used in machine learning problems.Fuzzy classification with the nearest neighbor clears the belonging of an instance to classes and optimal weights with improved nearest neighbor concept helping to correctly classify imbalanced data.The proposed hybrid approach takes care of imbalance nature of data and reduces the inaccuracies appear in applications of original and traditional classifiers.Results show that it performs well over the existing fuzzy nearest neighbor and weighted neighbor strategies for imbalanced learning.

In agent-based automated negotiation research area,a key problem is how to make software agent more adaptable to represent user preferences or suggestions,so that agent can take further proposals that reflect user requirements to implement ecommerce activities like automated transactions.The difficulty lies in the uncertainty of user preferences that include uncertain description and contents,non-linear and dynamic variability.In this paper,fuzzy language was used to describe the uncertainty and combine with multiple classified artificial neural networks(ANNs) for self-adaptive learning of user preferences.The refinement learning results of various negotiation contracts' satisfaction degrees in the extent of fuzzy classification can be achieved.Compared to unclassified computation,the experimental results illustrate that the learning ability and effectiveness of agents have been improved.

Prediction of rock mass rating using fuzzy logic and multi-variable RMR regression model

Rock mass rating system （RMR） is based on the six parameters which was defined by Bieniawski （1989） [1]. Experts frequently relate joint and discontinuities and ground water conditions in linguistic terms with rough calculation. As a result, there is a sharp transition between two modules which create doubts. So, in this paper the proposed weights technique was applied for linguistic criteria. Then by using the fuzzy inference system and the multi-variable regression analysis, the accurate RMR is predicted. Before the performing of regression analysis, sensitivity analysis was applied for each of Bieniawski parameters. In this process, the best function was selected among linear, logarithmic, exponential and inverse func- tions and finally it was applied in the regression analysis for construction of a predictive equation. From the constructed regression equation the relative importance of the input parameters can also be observed. It should be noted that joint condition was identified as the most important effective parameter upon RMR. Finally, fuzzy and regression models were validated with the test datasets and it was found that the fuzzy model predicts more accurately RMR than reression models.

Knowledge Based Pipeline Network Classification and Recognition Method of Maps

Map recognition is an essential data input means of Geographic Information System (GIS). How to solve the problems in the procedure, such as recognition of maps with crisscross pipeline networks, classification of buildings and roads, and processing of connected text, is a critical step for GIS keeping high-speed development. In this paper, a new recognition method of pipeline maps is presented, and some common patterns of pipeline connection and component labels are established. Through pattern matching, pipelines and component labels are recognized and peeled off from maps. After this approach, maps simply consist of buildings and roads, which are recognized and classified with fuzzy classification method. In addition, the Double Sides Scan (DSS) technique is also described, through which the effect of connected text can be eliminated.

Evaluation of Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Simulated Land Use/Cover in China Using a Probabilistic Cellular Automata-Markov Model

Using the fuzzy rule-based classification method, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) images acquired from 1982 to 1998 were classified into seventeen phases. Based on these classification images, a probabilistic cellular automata-Markov Chain model was developed and used to simulate a land cover scenario of China for the year 2014. Spatiotemporal dynamics of land use/cover in China from 1982 to 2014 were then analyzed and evaluated. The results showed that the change trends of land cover type from 1998 to 2014 would be contrary to those from 1982 to 1998. In particular, forestland and grassland areas decreased by 1.56% and 1.46%, respectively, from 1982 to 1998, and should increase by 1.5% and 2.3% from 1998 to 2014, respectively.
