However, due to the diversity of the deep structure in the hierarchical fuzzy system (HFS) and thecorrelation of each sub fuzzy system, the uncertainty of the HFS’s deep structure increases. For the HFS, a largenumber of studies mainly use fixed structures, which cannot be selected automatically. To solve this problem, thispaper proposes a novel approach for constructing the incremental HFS. During system design, the deep structureand the rule base of the HFS are encoded separately. Subsequently, the deep structure is adaptively mutated basedon the fitness value, so as to realize the diversity of deep structures while ensuring reasonable competition amongthe structures. Finally, the differential evolution (DE) is used to optimize the deep structure of HFS and theparameters of antecedent and consequent simultaneously. The simulation results confirm the effectiveness of themodel. Specifically, the root mean square errors in the Laser dataset and Friedman dataset are 0.0395 and 0.0725,respectively with rule counts of rules is 8 and 12, respectively.When compared to alternative methods, the resultsindicate that the proposed method offers improvements in accuracy and rule counts.展开更多

The generalized form of IFS is interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS), whose components are intervals rather than exact numbers. IFSs and IVIFSs have been found to be very useful to describe vagueness and uncertainty. However, it seems that little attention has been focused on the clustering analysis of IFSs and IVIFSs. An intuitionistic fuzzy hierarchical algorithm is introduced for clustering IFSs, which is based on the traditional hierarchical clustering procedure, the intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operator, and the basic distance measures between IFSs: the Hamming distance, normalized Hamming, weighted Hamming, the Euclidean distance, the normalized Euclidean distance, and the weighted Euclidean distance. Subsequently, the algorithm is extended for clustering IVIFSs. Finally the algorithm and its extended form are applied to the classifications of building materials and enterprises respectively.展开更多

The input scaling factor tuning of a direct expert controller is made using the error and process input parameters in a closed loop system in order to obtain better controller performance for set-point change and load disturbances. This on-line tuning method reduces operator involvement and enhances the controller performance to a wide operating range. The hierarchical control scheme consists of an intelligent upper level supervisory fuzzy controller and a lower level direct fuzzy controller. The upper level controller provides a mechanism to the main goal of the system and the lower level controller delivers the solutions to a particular situation. The control algorithm for the proposed scheme has been developed and tested using an ARM7 microcontroller-based embedded target board for a nonlinear pressure process having dead time. To demonstrate the effectiveness, the results of the proposed hierarchical controller, fuzzy controller and conventional proportional-integral (PI) controller are analyzed. The results prove that the SHFC performance is better in terms of stability and robustness than the conventional control methods.展开更多

First, FCM clustering is employed to classify the data into different clusters, which helps to estimate whether there is a fault and how many fault types there are. If fault signals exist, the fault vibration signals are then demodulated and decomposed into different frequency bands by MMEMD in order to be analyzed further. In order to overcome the mode mixing defect of empirical mode decomposition (EMD), a novel method called MMEMD is proposed. It is an improvement to masking empirical mode decomposition (MEMD). By adding multi-masking signals to the signals to be decomposed in different levels, it can restrain low-frequency components from mixing in highfrequency components effectively in the sifting process and then suppress the mode mixing. It has the advantages of easy implementation and strong ability of suppressing modal mixing. The fault type is determined by Hilbert envelope finally. The results of simulation signal decomposition showed the high performance of MMEMD. Experiments of bearing fault diagnosis in wind turbine bearing fault diagnosis proved the validity and high accuracy of the new method.展开更多

However, the standard FCM algorithm is sensitive to noise because of not taking into account the spatial information in the image. An improved FCM algorithm is proposed to improve the antinoise performance of FCM algorithm. The new algorithm is formulated by incorporating the spatial neighborhood information into the membership function for clustering. The distribution statistics of the neighborhood pixels and the prior probability are used to form a new membership func- tion. It is not only effective to remove the noise spots but also can reduce the misclassified pixels. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm is more accurate and robust to noise than the standard FCM algorithm.展开更多

X-ray computed tomography (CT) provides insight into the internal structure of soil pores automatically and accurately. Until recently, there have not been methods to identify soil pore structures. This has restricted the development of soil science, particularly regarding pore geometry and spatial distribution. Through the adoption of the fuzzy clustering theory and the establishment of pore identification rules, a novel pore identification method is described to extract pore structures from CT soil images. The robustness of the adaptive fuzzy C-means method (AFCM), the adaptive threshold method, and Image-Pro Plus tools were compared on soil specimens under different conditions, such as frozen, saturated, and dry situations. The results demonstrate that the AFCM method is suitable for identifying pore clusters, especially tiny pores, under various soil conditions. The method would provide an optional technique for the study of soil micromorphology.展开更多

文摘Wireless sensor networks(WSN)are widely used in many situations,but the disordered and random deployment mode will waste a lot of sensor resources.This paper proposes a multi-topology hierarchical collaborative particle swarm optimization(MHCHPSO)to optimize sensor deployment location and improve the coverage of WSN.MHCHPSO divides the population into three types topology:diversity topology for global exploration,fast convergence topology for local development,and collaboration topology for exploration and development.All topologies are optimized in parallel to overcome the precocious convergence of PSO.This paper compares with various heuristic algorithms at CEC 2013,CEC 2015,and CEC 2017.The experimental results show that MHCHPSO outperforms the comparison algorithms.In addition,MHCHPSO is applied to the WSN localization optimization,and the experimental results confirm the optimization ability of MHCHPSO in practical engineering problems.

文摘Aimed at the problem that the traditional suppressed fuzzy C-means clustering algorithms ignore the real needs of different objects, applying the same suppressed parameter for modifying membership degrees of all the objects, a novel partition region-based suppressed fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm with better capacity of adaptability and robustness is proposed in this paper. The model based on the real needs of different objects is built, making it clear to decide whether to proceed with further determination; in addition, the external user-defined suppressed parameter is automatically selected according to the intrinsic structural characteristic of each dataset, making the proposed method become robust to the fluctuations in the incoming dataset and initial conditions. Experimental results show that the proposed method is more robust than its counterparts and overcomes the weakness of the original suppressed clustering algorithm in most cases.
文摘Fingerprint segmentation is a crucial step in fingerprint recognition system, and determines the results of fingerprint analysis and recognition. This paper proposes an efficient approach for fingerprint segmentation based on modified fuzzy c-means (FCM). The proposed method is realized by modifying the objective function in the Szilagyi’s algorithm via introducing histogram-based weight. Experimental results show that the proposed approach has an efficient performance while segmenting both original fingerprint image and fingerprint images corrupted by different type of noises.

文摘For the charging station construction of electric vehicle,location selecting is a key issue.There are two problems in location selection of the electric vehicle charging station.One is determining the location of charging station;the other is evaluating the location of charging station.To determine the charging station location,an spatial clustering algorithm is proposed and programmed.The example simulation shows the effectiveness of the spatial clustering algorithm.To evaluate the charging station location,a multi-hierarchical fuzzy method is proposed.Based on the location factors of electric vehicle charging station,the hierarchical evaluation structure of electric vehicle charging station location is constructed,including three levels,4first-class factors and 14second-class factors.The fuzzy multi-hierarchical evaluation model and algorithm are built.The analysis results show that the multi-hierarchical fuzzy method can reasonably complete the electric vehicle charging station location evaluation.
文摘Finding subtypes of cancer in breast cancer database is an extremely dificult task because ofheavy noise by measurement error.Most of the recent clustering techniques for breast cancerdatabase to achieve cancerous and noncancerous often weigh down the interpretability of thestructure.Hence,this paper tries to find effective Fuzzy C-Means-based clustering techniques toidentify the proper subtypes of cancer in breast cancer database,This paper obtains the objectivefunction of ffective Fuzzy C-Means clustering techriques by incorporating the kermel induceddist ance function,Renyi's entropy function,weighted dist ance measure and neighborhood ternsbased spatial context.The efectiveness of the proposed methods are proved through the ex-perimental works on Lung cancer database,IRIS dataset,Wine dat aset,Checkerboard dataset,Time Series dataset and Yeast dataset.Finlly,the proposed methods are implemented suc-cesfully to cluster the breast cancer dat abase into cancerous and noncancerous.The clusteringaccuracy has been validat ed through error matrix and silhouette method.

文摘An intelligent fuzzy c-means system for process monitoring and recognition of process disturbances during short- circuiting gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is introduced in this paper. The raw measured and statistically test data of probability density distribution ( PDD ) and class frequency distribution ( CFD ) of welding electrical parameters are further processed into a 7-dimensional array which is designed to describe various welding conditions, and is employed as input vector of the intelligent fuzzy c-means system. The fuzzy c-means system is used to conduct process monitoring and automatic recognition. The correct recognition rate of 24 test data under 8 kinds of welding condition is 92%.
