Abstract

In this paper a self-organizing fuzzy system with rule pruning is proposed. A conventional self-organizing fuzzy system having only rule generation has a drawback in generating many slightly different rules from the existing rules which results in increased computation time and slowly learning. The proposed self-organizing fuzzy system generates fuzzy rules based on input-output data and prunes redundant rules which are caused by parameter training. The proposed system has a simple structure but performs almost equivalent function to the conventional self-organizing fuzzy system. Also, this system has better learning speed than the conventional system. Simulation results on several numerical examples demonstrate the performance of the proposed system.
