Functional-type Single-input-rule-modules Connected Neural Fuzzy System for Wind Speed Prediction

Wind is one kind of clean and free renewable energy sources. Wind speed plays a pivotal role in the wind power output. However, due to the random and unstable nature of the wind, accurate prediction of wind speed is a particularly challenging task. This paper presents a novel neural fuzzy method for the hourly wind speed prediction. Firstly, a neural structure is proposed for the functional-type single-input-rule-modules(FSIRMs) connected fuzzy inference system(FIS) to combine the merits of both the FSIRMs connected FIS and the neural network. Then, in order to achieve both the smallest training errors and the smallest parameters, a least square method based parameter learning algorithm is presented for the proposed FSIRMs connected neural fuzzy system(FSIRMNFS). Further,the proposed FSIRMNFS and its parameter learning algorithm are applied to the hourly wind speed prediction. Experiments and comparisons are also made to show the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed approach. Experimental results verified that our study has presented an effective approach for the hourly wind speed prediction. The proposed approach can also be used for the prediction of wind direction, wind power and some other prediction applications in the research field of renewable energy.

In this paper, a new fuzzy-neural adaptive control approach is developed for a class of single-input and single-output （SISO） nonlinear systems with unmeasured states. Using fuzzy neural networks to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, a fuzzy- neural adaptive observer is introduced for state estimation as well as system identification. Under the framework of the backstepping design, fuzzy-neural adaptive output feedback control is constructed recursively. It is proven that the proposed fuzzy adaptive control approach guarantees the global boundedness property for all the signals, driving the tracking error to a small neighbordhood of the origin.

Maximum power point tracking of a photovoltaic energy system using neural fuzzy techniques

In order to improve the output efficiency of a photovoltaic （PV） energy system, the real-time maximum power point （MPP） of the PV array should be tracked closely. The non-linear and time-variant characteristics of the photovoltaic array and the non-linear and non-minimum phase characteristics of a boost converter make it difficult to track the MPP as in traditional control strategies. A neural fuzzy controller （NFC） in conjunction with the reasoning capability of fuzzy logical systems and the learning capability of neural networks is proposed to track the MPP in this paper. A gradient estimator based on a radial basis function neural network is developed to provide the reference information to the NFC. With a derived learning algorithm, the parameters of the NFC are updated adaptively. Experimental results show that, compared with the fuzzy logic control algorithm, the proposed control algorithm provides much better tracking performance.

An Improved SPSA Algorithm for System Identification Using Fuzzy Rules for Training Neural Networks

Simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation （SPSA） belongs to the class of gradient-free optimization methods that extract gradient information from successive objective function evaluation. 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.

Effective data transmission through energy-efficient clustering and Fuzzy-Based IDS routing approach in WSNs

Wireless sensor networks(WSN)gather information and sense information samples in a certain region and communicate these readings to a base station(BS).Energy efficiency is considered a major design issue in the WSNs,and can be addressed using clustering and routing techniques.Information is sent from the source to the BS via routing procedures.However,these routing protocols must ensure that packets are delivered securely,guaranteeing that neither adversaries nor unauthentic individuals have access to the sent information.Secure data transfer is intended to protect the data from illegal access,damage,or disruption.Thus,in the proposed model,secure data transmission is developed in an energy-effective manner.A low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy(LEACH)is developed to efficiently transfer the data.For the intrusion detection systems(IDS),Fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks(ANNs)are proposed.Initially,the nodes were randomly placed in the network and initialized to gather information.To ensure fair energy dissipation between the nodes,LEACH randomly chooses cluster heads(CHs)and allocates this role to the various nodes based on a round-robin management mechanism.The intrusion-detection procedure was then utilized to determine whether intruders were present in the network.Within the WSN,a Fuzzy interference rule was utilized to distinguish the malicious nodes from legal nodes.Subsequently,an ANN was employed to distinguish the harmful nodes from suspicious nodes.The effectiveness of the proposed approach was validated using metrics that attained 97%accuracy,97%specificity,and 97%sensitivity of 95%.Thus,it was proved that the LEACH and Fuzzy-based IDS approaches are the best choices for securing data transmission in an energy-efficient manner.

Isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was conducted in the deformation temperature range of 1093-1303 K, the strain rates of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 s-1, and the height reductions of 20%-60% with an interval of 10%. After compression, the effect of the processing parameters including deformation temperature, strain rate, and height reduction on the flow stress and the microstructure was investigated. The grain size of primary a phase was measured using an OLYMPUS PMG3 microscope with the quantitative metallography SISC IAS V8.0 image analysis software. A model of grain size in isothermal compression of Ti-6A1-4V alloy was developed using fuzzy neural net- work （FNN） with back-propagation （BP） learning algorithm. The maximum difference and the average difference between the predicted and the experimental grain sizes of primary a phase are 13.31% and 7.62% for the sampled data, and 16.48% and 6.97% for the non-sampled data, respectively. It can be concluded that the present model with high prediction precision can be used to predict the grain size in isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy.

A Short-Term Climate Prediction Model Based on a Modular Fuzzy Neural Network

In terms of the modular fuzzy neural network (MFNN) combining fuzzy c-mean (FCM) cluster and single-layer neural network, a short-term climate prediction model is developed. It is found from modeling results that the MFNN model for short-term climate prediction has advantages of simple structure, no hidden layer and stable network parameters because of the assembling of sound functions of the self-adaptive learning, association and fuzzy information processing of fuzzy mathematics and neural network methods. The case computational results of Guangxi flood season (JJA) rainfall show that the mean absolute error (MAE) and mean relative error (MRE) of the prediction during 1998-2002 are 68.8 mm and 9.78%, and in comparison with the regression method, under the conditions of the same predictors and period they are 97.8 mm and 12.28% respectively. Furthermore, it is also found from the stability analysis of the modular model that the change of the prediction results of independent samples with training times in the stably convergent interval of the model is less than 1.3 mm. The obvious oscillation phenomenon of prediction results with training times, such as in the common back-propagation neural network (BPNN) model, does not occur, indicating a better practical application potential of the MFNN model.

Meanwhile, the fuzzy competition learning algorithm keeps the similar information between samples and overcomes the disadvantages of neural network which has fewer samples. The simulation result indicates that the proposed algorithm is feasible and effective.

We investigate the stochastic asymptotical synchronization of chaotic Markovian jumping fuzzy cellular neural networks （MJFCNNs） with discrete, unbounded distributed delays, and the Wiener process based on sampled-data control using the linear matrix inequality （LMI） approach. The Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional combined with the input delay approach as well as the free-weighting matrix approach is employed to derive several sufficient criteria in terms of LMIs to ensure that the delayed MJFCNNs with the Wiener process is stochastic asymptotical synchronous. Restrictions （e.g., time derivative is smaller than one） are removed to obtain a proposed sampled-data controller. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the reliability of the derived results.

HPSO-based fuzzy neural network control for AUV

A fuzzy neural network controller for underwater vehicles has many parameters difficult to tune manually. To reduce the numerous work and subjective uncertainties in manual adjustments, a hybrid particle swarm optimization （HPSO） algorithm based on immune theory and nonlinear decreasing inertia weight （NDIW） strategy is proposed. Owing to the restraint factor and NDIW strategy, an HPSO algorithm can effectively prevent premature convergence and keep balance between global and local searching abilities. Meanwhile, the algorithm maintains the ability of handling multimodal and multidimensional problems. The HPSO algorithm has the fastest convergence velocity and finds the best solutions compared to GA, IGA, and basic PSO algorithm in simulation experiments. Experimental results on the AUV simulation platform show that HPSO-based controllers perform well and have strong abilities against current disturbance. It can thus be concluded that the proposed algorithm is feasible for application to AUVs.
