Combination of Neuro-Fuzzy Network Models with Biological Knowledge for Reconstructing Gene Regulatory Networks

Inferring gene regulatory networks from large-scale expression data is an important topic in both cellular systems and computational biology. The inference of regulators might be the core factor for understanding actual regulatory conditions in gene regulatory networks, especially when strong regulators do work significantly. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on combining neuro-fu^zy network models with biological knowledge to infer strong regulators and interrelated fuzzy rules. The hybrid neuro-fuzzy architecture can not only infer the fuzzy rules, which are suitable for describing the regulatory conditions in regulatory nctworks＋ but also explain the meaning of nodes and weight value in the neural network. It can get useful rules automatically without lhctitious judgments. At the same time, it does not add recursive layers to the model, and the model can also strengthen the relationships among genes and reduce calculation. We use the proposed approach to reconstruct a partial gene regulatory network of yeast, The results show that this approach can work effectively.

The neuro-fuzzy network (NFN) is used to model the rules and experience of the process planner. NFN is to select the manufacturing operations sequences for the part features. A detailed description of the NFN system development is given. The rule structure utilizes sigmoid functions to fuzzify the inputs, multiplication to combine the if Part of the rules and summation to integrate the fired rules. Expert knowledge from previous process Plans is used in determinning the initial network structure and parameters of the membership functions. A back-propagation (BP) training algorithm was developed to fine tune the knowledge to company standards using the input-output data from executions of previous plans. The method is illustrated by an industrial example.

An Automatic Threshold Selection Using ALO for Healthcare Duplicate Record Detection with Reciprocal Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System

ESystems based on EHRs(Electronic health records)have been in use for many years and their amplified realizations have been felt recently.They still have been pioneering collections of massive volumes of health data.Duplicate detections involve discovering records referring to the same practical components,indicating tasks,which are generally dependent on several input parameters that experts yield.Record linkage specifies the issue of finding identical records across various data sources.The similarity existing between two records is characterized based on domain-based similarity functions over different features.De-duplication of one dataset or the linkage of multiple data sets has become a highly significant operation in the data processing stages of different data mining programmes.The objective is to match all the records associated with the same entity.Various measures have been in use for representing the quality and complexity about data linkage algorithms,and many other novel metrics have been introduced.An outline of the problem existing in themeasurement of data linkage and de-duplication quality and complexity is presented.This article focuses on the reprocessing of health data that is horizontally divided among data custodians,with the purpose of custodians giving similar features to sets of patients.The first step in this technique is about an automatic selection of training examples with superior quality from the compared record pairs and the second step involves training the reciprocal neuro-fuzzy inference system(RANFIS)classifier.Using the Optimal Threshold classifier,it is presumed that there is information about the original match status for all compared record pairs(i.e.,Ant Lion Optimization),and therefore an optimal threshold can be computed based on the respective RANFIS.Febrl,Clinical Decision(CD),and Cork Open Research Archive(CORA)data repository help analyze the proposed method with evaluated benchmarks with current techniques.

Data Analytics on Unpredictable Pregnancy Data Records Using Ensemble Neuro-Fuzzy Techniques

The immune system goes through a profound transformation during pregnancy,and certain unexpected maternal complications have been correlated to this transition.The ability to correctly examine,diagnoses,and predict pregnancy-hastened diseases via the available big data is a delicate problem since the range of information continuously increases and is scalable.Many approaches for disease diagnosis/classification have been established with the use of data mining concepts.However,such methods do not provide an appropriate classification/diagnosis model.Furthermore,single learning approaches are used to create the bulk of these systems.Classification issues may be made more accurate by combining predictions from many different techniques.As a result,we used the Ensembling of Neuro-Fuzzy(E-NF)method to perform a high-level classification of medical diseases.E-NF is a layered computational model with self-learning and self-adaptive capabilities to deal with specific problems,such as the handling of imprecise and ambiguous data that may lead to uncertainty concerns that specifically emerge during the classification stage.Preprocessing data,Training phase,Ensemble phase,and Testing phase make up the complete procedure for the suggested task.Data preprocessing includes feature extraction and dimensionality reduction.Besides such processes,the training phase includes the fuzzification process of medical data.Moreover,training of input data was done using four types of NF techniques:Fuzzy Adaptive Learning Control Network(FALCON),Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS),Self Constructing Neural Fuzzy Inference Network(SONFIN)and/Evolving Fuzzy Neural Network(EFuNN).Later,in the ensemble phase,all the NF methods’predicted outcomes are integrated,and finally,the test results are evaluated in the testing phase.The outcomes indicate that the method could predict impaired glucose tolerance,preeclampsia,gestational hypertensive abnormalities,bacteriuria,and iron deficiency anaemia better than the others.In addition,the model exposed the capability to be utilized as an autonomous learning strategy,specifically in the early stages of pregnancy,examinations,and clinical guidelines for disease interventions.

Training Neuro-Fuzzy by Using Meta-Heuristic Algorithms for MPPT

It is one of the topics that have been studied extensively on maximum power point tracking(MPPT)recently.Traditional or soft computing methods are used for MPPT.Since soft computing approaches are more effective than traditional approaches,studies on MPPT have shifted in this direction.This study aims comparison of performance of seven meta-heuristic training algorithms in the neuro-fuzzy training for MPPT.The meta-heuristic training algorithms used are particle swarm optimization(PSO),harmony search(HS),cuckoo search(CS),artificial bee colony(ABC)algorithm,bee algorithm(BA),differential evolution(DE)and flower pollination algorithm(FPA).The antecedent and conclusion parameters of neuro-fuzzy are determined by these algorithms.The data of a 250 W photovoltaic(PV)is used in the applications.For effective MPPT,different neuro-fuzzy structures,different membership functions and different control parameter values are evaluated in detail.Related training algorithms are compared in terms of solution quality and convergence speed.The strengths and weaknesses of these algorithms are revealed.It is seen that the type and number of membership function,colony size,number of generations affect the solution quality and convergence speed of the training algorithms.As a result,it has been observed that CS and ABC algorithm are more effective than other algorithms in terms of solution quality and convergence in solving the related problem.

An Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System to Improve Fractional Order Controller Performance

The design and analysis of a fractional order proportional integral deri-vate(FOPID)controller integrated with an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system(ANFIS)is proposed in this study.Afirst order plus delay time plant model has been used to validate the ANFIS combined FOPID control scheme.In the pro-posed adaptive control structure,the intelligent ANFIS was designed such that it will dynamically adjust the fractional order factors(λandµ)of the FOPID(also known as PIλDµ)controller to achieve better control performance.When the plant experiences uncertainties like external load disturbances or sudden changes in the input parameters,the stability and robustness of the system can be achieved effec-tively with the proposed control scheme.Also,a modified structure of the FOPID controller has been used in the present system to enhance the dynamic perfor-mance of the controller.An extensive MATLAB software simulation study was made to verify the usefulness of the proposed control scheme.The study has been carried out under different operating conditions such as external disturbances and sudden changes in input parameters.The results obtained using the ANFIS-FOPID control scheme are also compared to the classical fractional order PIλDµand conventional PID control schemes to validate the advantages of the control-lers.The simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the ANFIS combined FOPID controller for the chosen plant model.Also,the proposed control scheme outperformed traditional control methods in various performance metrics such as rise time,settling time and error criteria.

A chemical-reaction-optimization-based neuro-fuzzy hybrid network for stock closing price prediction

Accurate prediction of stock market behavior is a challenging issue for financial forecasting.Artificial neural networks,such as multilayer perceptron have been established as better approximation and classification models for this domain.This study proposes a chemical reaction optimization(CRO)based neuro-fuzzy network model for prediction of stock indices.The input vectors to the model are fuzzified by applying a Gaussian membership function,and each input is associated with a degree of membership to different classes.A multilayer perceptron with one hidden layer is used as the base model and CRO is used to the optimal weights and biases of this model.CRO was chosen because it requires fewer control parameters and has a faster convergence rate.Five statistical parameters are used to evaluate the performance of the model,and the model is validated by forecasting the daily closing indices for five major stock markets.The performance of the proposed model is compared with four state-of-art models that are trained similarly and was found to be superior.We conducted the Deibold-Mariano test to check the statistical significance of the proposed model,and it was found to be significant.This model can be used as a promising tool for financial forecasting.

Artificial intelligence(AI)technology has become integral in the realm of medicine and healthcare,particularly in human activity recognition(HAR)applications such as fitness and rehabilitation tracking.This study introduces a robust coupling analysis framework that integrates four AI-enabled models,combining both machine learning(ML)and deep learning(DL)approaches to evaluate their effectiveness in HAR.The analytical dataset comprises 561 features sourced from the UCI-HAR database,forming the foundation for training the models.Additionally,the MHEALTH database is employed to replicate the modeling process for comparative purposes,while inclusion of the WISDM database,renowned for its challenging features,supports the framework’s resilience and adaptability.The ML-based models employ the methodologies including adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system(ANFIS),support vector machine(SVM),and random forest(RF),for data training.In contrast,a DL-based model utilizes one-dimensional convolution neural network(1dCNN)to automate feature extraction.Furthermore,the recursive feature elimination(RFE)algorithm,which drives an ML-based estimator to eliminate low-participation features,helps identify the optimal features for enhancing model performance.The best accuracies of the ANFIS,SVM,RF,and 1dCNN models with meticulous featuring process achieve around 90%,96%,91%,and 93%,respectively.Comparative analysis using the MHEALTH dataset showcases the 1dCNN model’s remarkable perfect accuracy(100%),while the RF,SVM,and ANFIS models equipped with selected features achieve accuracies of 99.8%,99.7%,and 96.5%,respectively.Finally,when applied to the WISDM dataset,the DL-based and ML-based models attain accuracies of 91.4%and 87.3%,respectively,aligning with prior research findings.In conclusion,the proposed framework yields HAR models with commendable performance metrics,exhibiting its suitability for integration into the healthcare services system through AI-driven applications.

Data Augmentation and Deep Neuro-fuzzy Network for Student Performance Prediction with MapReduce Framework

The main aim of an educational institute is to offer high-quality education to students. The system to achieve better quality in the educational system is to find the knowledge from educational data and to discover the attributes that manipulate the performance of students. Student performance prediction is a major issue in education and training, specifically in the educational data mining system. This research presents the student performance prediction approach with the MapReduce framework based on the proposed fractional competitive multi-verse optimization-based deep neuro-fuzzy network. The proposed fractional competitive multi-verse optimization-based deep neuro-fuzzy network is derived by integrating fractional calculus with competitive multi-verse optimization. The MapReduce framework is designed with the mapper and the reducer phase to perform the student performance prediction mechanism with the deep learning classifier. The input data is partitioned at the mapper phase to perform the data transformation process, and thereby the features are selected using the distance measure. The selected unique features are employed for the data segmentation process, and thereafter the prediction strategy is accomplished at the reducer phase by the deep neuro-fuzzy network classifier. The proposed method obtained the performance in terms of mean square error, root mean square error and mean absolute error with the values of 0.338 3, 0.581 7, and 0.391 5, respectively.

Ant colony optimization algorithm and its application to Neuro-Fuzzy controller design

An adaptive ant colony algorithm is proposed based on dynamically adjusting the strategy of updating trail information. The algorithm can keep good balance between accelerating convergence and averting precocity and stagnation. The results of function optimization show that the algorithm has good searching ability and high convergence speed. The algorithm is employed to design a neuro-fuzzy controller for real-time control of an inverted pendulum. In order to avoid the combinatorial explosion of fuzzy rules due tσ multivariable inputs, a state variable synthesis scheme is employed to reduce the number of fuzzy rules greatly. The simulation results show that the designed controller can control the inverted pendulum successfully.

Characteristics Prediction Method of Electro-hydraulic Servo Valve Based on Rough Set and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System

Synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve are key factors to determine eligibility of the hydraulic production. Testing all synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve after assembling leads to high repair rate and reject rate, so accurate prediction for the synthesis characteristics in the industrial production is particular important in decreasing the repair rate and the reject rate of the product. However, the research in forecasting synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve is rare. In this work, a hybrid prediction method was proposed based on rough set（RS） and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system（ANFIS） in order to predict synthesis characteristics of electro-hydraulic servo valve. Since the geometric factors affecting the synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve are from workers＇ experience, the inputs of the prediction method are uncertain. RS-based attributes reduction was used as the preprocessor, and then the exact geometric factors affecting the synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve were obtained. On the basis of the exact geometric factors, ANFIS was used to build the final prediction model. A typical electro-hydraulic servo valve production was used to demonstrate the proposed prediction method. The prediction results showed that the proposed prediction method was more applicable than the artificial neural networks（ANN） in predicting the synthesis characteristics of electro-hydraulic servo valve, and the proposed prediction method was a powerful tool to predict synthesis characteristics of the electro-hydraulic servo valve. Moreover, with the use of the advantages of RS and ANFIS, the highly effective forecasting framework in this study can also be applied to other problems involving synthesis characteristics forecasting.

An evolutionary adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for estimating field penetration index of tunnel boring machine in rock mass

Field penetration index(FPI) is one of the representative key parameters to examine the tunnel boring machine(TBM) performance.Lack of accurate FPI prediction can be responsible for numerous disastrous incidents associated with rock mechanics and engineering.This study aims to predict TBM performance(i.e.FPI) by an efficient and improved adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system(ANFIS) model.This was done using an evolutionary algorithm,i.e.artificial bee colony(ABC) algorithm mixed with the ANFIS model.The role of ABC algorithm in this system is to find the optimum membership functions(MFs) of ANFIS model to achieve a higher degree of accuracy.The procedure and modeling were conducted on a tunnelling database comprising of more than 150 data samples where brittleness index(BI),fracture spacing,α angle between the plane of weakness and the TBM driven direction,and field single cutter load were assigned as model inputs to approximate FPI values.According to the results obtained by performance indices,the proposed ANFISABC model was able to receive the highest accuracy level in predicting FPI values compared with ANFIS model.In terms of coefficient of determination(R^(2)),the values of 0.951 and 0.901 were obtained for training and testing stages of the proposed ANFISABC model,respectively,which confirm its power and capability in solving TBM performance problem.The proposed model can be used in the other areas of rock mechanics and underground space technologies with similar conditions.

A novel approach to determine residual stress field during FSW of AZ91 Mg alloy using combined smoothed particle hydrodynamics/neuro-fuzzy computations and ultrasonic testing

The faults in welding design and process every so often yield defective parts during friction stir welding(FSW).The development of numerical approaches including the finite element method(FEM)provides a way to draw a process paradigm before any physical implementation.It is not practical to simulate all possible designs to identify the optimal FSW practice due to the inefficiency associated with concurrent modeling of material flow and heat dissipation throughout the FSW.This study intends to develop a computational workflow based on the mesh-free FEM framework named smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH)which was integrated with adaptive neuro-fiizzy inference system(ANFIS)to evaluate the residual stress in the FSW process.An integrated SPH and ANFIS methodology was established and the well-trained ANIS was then used to predict how the FSW process depends on its parameters.To verify the SPH calculation,an itemized FSW case was performed on AZ91 Mg alloy and the induced residual stress was measured by ultrasonic testing.The suggested methodology can efficiently predict the residual stress distribution throughout friction stir welding of AZ91 alloy.

Finally,modeling the dynamical equation of the two-link manipulator with the proposed approach is illustrated to validate the feasibility of the method.

Detection of small bowel tumor in wireless capsule endoscopy images using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system

Automatic diagnosis tool helps physicians to evaluate capsule endoscopic examinations faster and more accurate.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of an automatic post-processing method for identifying and classifying wireless capsule endoscopic images, and investigate statistical measures to differentiate normal and abnormal images. The proposed technique consists of two main stages, namely, feature extraction and classification. Primarily, 32 features incorporating four statistical measures(contrast, correlation, homogeneity and energy) calculated from co-occurrence metrics were computed. Then, mutual information was used to select features with maximal dependence on the target class and with minimal redundancy between features. Finally, a trained classifier, adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system was implemented to classify endoscopic images into tumor, healthy and unhealthy classes. Classification accuracy of 94.2% was obtained using the proposed pipeline. Such techniques are valuable for accurate detection characterization and interpretation of endoscopic images.

Robust adaptive neuro-fuzzy control of uncertain nonholonomic systems

In this paper, we present an adaptive neuro-fuzzy controller design for a class of uncertain nonholonomic systems in the perturbed chained form with unknown virtual control coefficients and strong drift nonlinearities. The robust adaptive neuro-fuzzy control laws are developed using state scaling and backstepping. Semiglobal uniform ultimate bound-edness of all the signals in the closed-loop are guaranteed, and the system states are proven to converge to a small neigh-borhood of zero. The control performance of the closed-loop system is guaranteed by appropriately choosing the design parameters. By using fuzzy logic approximation, the proposed control is free of control singularity problem. An adaptive control-based switching strategy is proposed to overcome the uncontrollability problem associated with x 0 (t 0 ) = 0.

Adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system for gap acceptance behavior of right-turning vehicles at partially controlled T-intersections

Gap acceptance theory is broadly used for evaluating unsignalized intersections in developed coun tries. Intersections with no specific priority to any move ment, known as uncontrolled intersections, are common in India. Limited priority is observed at a few intersections, where priorities are perceived by drivers based on geom etry, traffic volume, and speed on the approaches of intersection. Analyzing such intersections is complex because the overall traffic behavior is the result of drivers, vehicles, and traffic flow characteristics. Fuzzy theory has been widely used to analyze similar situations. This paper describes the application of adaptive neurofuzzy interface system （ANFIS） to the modeling of gap acceptance behavior of rightturning vehicles at limited priority Tintersections （in India, vehicles are driven on the left side of a road）. Field data are collected using video cameras at four Tintersections having limited priority. The data extracted include gap/lag, subject vehicle type, conflicting vehicle type, and driver＇s decision （accepted/rejected）. ANFIS models are developed by using 80 % of the extracted data （total data observations for major road right turning vehicles are 722 and 1,066 for minor road right turning vehicles） and remaining are used for model vali dation. Four different combinations of input variables are considered for major and minor road right turnings sepa rately. Correct prediction by ANFIS models ranges from 75.17 % to 82.16 % for major road right turning and 87.20 % to 88.62 % for minor road right turning. Themodels developed in this paper can be used in the dynamic estimation of gap acceptance in traffic simulation models.
