After the advent of high-speed milling(HSM) pro cess, lots of experimental and theoretical researches have been done for this purpose which mainly emphasized on the optimization of the cutting parameters. It is highly beneficial to convert raw data into a comprehensive knowledge-based expert system using fuzzy logic as the reasoning mechanism. In this paper an attempt has been presented for the extraction of the rules from fuzzy neural network(FNN) so as to have the most effective knowledge-base for given set of data. Experiments were conducted to determine the best values of cutting speeds that can maximize tool life for different combinations of input parameters. A fuzzy neural network was constructed based on the fuzzification of input parameters and the cutting speed. After training process, raw rule sets were extracted and a rule pruning approach was proposed to obtain concise linguistic rules. The estimation process with fuzzy inference showed that the optimized combination of fuzzy rules provided the estimation error of only 6.34 m/min as compared to 314 m/min of that of randomized combination of rule s.展开更多

This paper describes an improved SPSA algorithm, which entails fuzzy adaptive gain sequences, gradient smoothing, and a step rejection procedure to enhance convergence and stability. The proposed fuzzy adaptive simultaneous perturbation approximation (FASPA) algorithm is particularly well suited to problems involving a large number of parameters such as those encountered in nonlinear system identification using neural networks (NNs). Accordingly, a multilayer perceptron (MLP) network with popular training algorithms was used to predicate the system response. We found that an MLP trained by FASPSA had the desired accuracy that was comparable to results obtained by traditional system identification algorithms. Simulation results for typical nonlinear systems demonstrate that the proposed NN architecture trained with FASPSA yields improved system identification as measured by reduced time of convergence and a smaller identification error.展开更多

Most algorithms for mining association rules identify relationships among transactions using binary values and find rules at a single-concept level. Extracting multilevel association rules in transaction databases is most commonly used in data mining. This paper proposes a multilevel fuzzy association rule mining model for extraction of implicit knowledge which stored as quantitative values in transactions. For this reason it uses different support value at each level as well as different membership function for each item. By integrating fuzzy-set concepts, data-mining technologies and multiple-level taxonomy, our method finds fuzzy association rules from transaction data sets. This approach adopts a top-down progressively deepening approach to derive large itemsets and also incorporates fuzzy boundaries instead of sharp boundary intervals. Comparing our method with previous ones in simulation shows that the proposed method maintains higher precision, the mined rules are closer to reality, and it gives ability to mine association rules at different levels based on the user’s tendency as well.展开更多

To solve the problems, the fuzzy control method and the genetic algorithms were systematically integrated to create a kind of improved fuzzy adaptive genetic algorithm (FAGA) based on the auto-regulating fuzzy rules (ARFR-FAGA). By using the fuzzy control method, the values of Pc and Pm were adjusted according to the evolutional process, and the fuzzy rules were optimized by another genetic algorithm. Experimental results in solving the function optimization problems demonstrate that the convergence rate and solution quality of ARFR-FAGA exceed those of SGA, AGA and fuzzy adaptive genetic algorithm based on expertise (EFAGA) obviously in the global search.展开更多

But data of the real world has various types, the multi-level and quantitative attributes are got more and more attention. And the most important step is to mine frequent sets. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that is called fuzzy multiple-level association (FMA) rules to mine frequent sets. It is based on the improved Eclat algorithm that is different to many researchers’ proposed algorithms thatused the Apriori algorithm. We analyze quantitative data’s frequent sets by using the fuzzy theory, dividing the hierarchy of concept and softening the boundary of attributes’ values and frequency. In this paper, we use the vertical-style data and the improved Eclat algorithm to describe the proposed method, we use this algorithm to analyze the data of Beijing logistics route. Experiments show that the algorithm has a good performance, it has better effectiveness and high efficiency.展开更多

Decision makers who fail to proficiently manipulate the data produced may make incorrect decisions and therefore harm their business. Thus, the task of extracting and classifying the useful information efficiently and effectively from huge amounts of computational data is of special importance. In this paper, we consider that the attributes of data could be both crisp and fuzzy. By examining the suitable partial data, segments with different classes are formed, then a multithreaded computation is performed to generate crisp rules (if possible), and finally, the fuzzy partition technique is employed to deal with the fuzzy attributes for classification. The rules generated in classifying the overall data can be used to gain more knowledge from the data collected.展开更多

Current diagnostic methods, including mammography and MRI, suffer from limitations such as uncertainty and imprecise data, leading to late-stage diagnoses. To address this, various expert systems have been developed, but many rely on type-1 fuzzy logic and lack mobile-based applications for data collection and feedback to healthcare practitioners. This research investigates the development of an Enhanced Mobile-based Fuzzy Expert system (EMFES) for breast cancer pre-growth prognosis. The study explores the use of type-2 fuzzy logic to enhance accuracy and model uncertainty effectively. Additionally, it evaluates the advantages of employing the python programming language over java for implementation and considers specific risk factors for data collection. The research aims to dynamically generate fuzzy rules, adapting to evolving breast cancer research and patient data. Key research questions focus on the comparative effectiveness of type-2 fuzzy logic, the handling of uncertainty and imprecise data, the integration of mobile-based features, the choice of programming language, and the creation of dynamic fuzzy rules. Furthermore, the study examines the differences between the Mamdani Inference System and the Sugeno Fuzzy Inference method and explores challenges and opportunities in deploying the EMFES on mobile devices. The research identifies a critical gap in existing breast cancer diagnostic systems, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive, mobile-enabled, and adaptable solution by developing an EMFES that leverages Type-2 fuzzy logic, the Sugeno Inference Algorithm, Python Programming, and dynamic fuzzy rule generation. This study seeks to enhance early breast cancer detection and ultimately reduce breast cancer-related mortality.展开更多

ECA rule is defined as: ON event IF condition THEN action, which means when an event happens, if the condition is satisfied then the corresponding action is executed. The nature of ECA rule makes it an appropriate means to model dynamic character of systems, as gained much studies during recent years. Traditional ECA rule is crisp, which means their events, condition (s) and action(s) are accurate. As indicate that ECA rules can only represent precise knowledge. But knowledge is usually fuzzy in engineering. A concept of fuzzy ECA rules characterized with fuzzy event, fuzzy condition and fuzzy action is proposed in this article.The realization avenues of fuzzy triggers are discussed. The work we have done blazes a way in representing approximate syntax in active database application systems. At last a case of 'overheating alarm' is given to illustrate the approach.展开更多

The fuzzy if-then rules with consequent real number were extracted from numerical data, and a linguistic representation method for deriving linguistic rules from fuzzy if-then rules with consequent real numbers was developed. The linguistic representation consisted of two linguistic variables with the degree of certainty and the storage structure of rule base was described. The simulation results show that the method involves neither the time-consuming iterative learning procedure nor the complicated rule generation mechanisms, and can approximate complex system. The method was applied to determine the flux amount of copper converting furnace in the process of matter converting. The real result shows that the mass fraction of Cu in slag is reduced by 0.5%.展开更多

A detection method of contamination defect on the ice cream bar surface is proposed,which is based on fuzzy rule and absolute neighborhood feature.

Firstly,the ice cream bar surface is divided into several sub-regions via the defined adjacent gray level clustering method. Then the alternative contamination regions are extracted from the sub-regions via the defined fuzzy rule. At last,the real contamination regions are recognized via the relationship between absolute neighborhood gray feature and default threshold. The algorithm was tested in the self-built image database SUT-D. The results show that the accuracy of the method proposed in this paper is 97.32 percent,which increases 2.68 percent at least comparing to the other typical algorithms. It indicates that the superiority proposed in this paper,which is of actual use value.
