In this paper, we propose a modified fuzzy clustering algorithm which can overcome the center deviation due to the Euclidean distance commonly used in fuzzy clustering. Among fuzzy clustering methods, Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) is the most well-known clustering algorithm and has been widely applied to various problems successfully. In FCM, however, cluster centers tend leaning to high density clusters because the Euclidean distance measure forces high density cluster to make more contribution to clustering result. Proposed is an enhanced algorithm which modifies the objective function of FCM by adding a center-scattering term to make centers not to be close due to the cluster density. The proposed method converges more to real centers with small number of iterations compared to FCM. All the strengths can be verified with experimental results.

Electromyographic (EMG) signals have been widely used as motion commands of prosthetic arms. Although EMG signals contain meaningful information including the movement intentions of human body, it is difficult to predict the subject's motion by analyzing EMG signals in real-time due to the difficulties in extracting motion information from the signals including a lot of noises inherently. In this paper, four Ag/AgCl electrodes are placed on the surface of the subject's major muscles which are in charge of four upper arm movements (wrist flexion, wrist extension, ulnar deviation, finger flexion) to measure EMG signals corresponding to the movements. The measured signals are sampled using DAQ module and clustered sequentially. The Fuzzy C-Means (FCMs) method calculates the center values of the clustered data group. The fuzzy system designed to detect the upper arm movement intention utilizing the center values as input signals shows about 90% success in classifying the movement intentions.

In this paper, we introduce a modeling and a process simulator developed with the aid of pRBFNNs for activated sludge process in the sewage treatment system. Activated sludge process(ASP) of sewage treatment system facilities is a process that handles biological treatment reaction and is a very complex system with non-linear characteristics. In this paper, we carry out modeling by using essential ASP factors such as water effluent quality, the manipulated value of various pumps, and water inflow quality, and so on. Intelligent algorithms used for constructing process simulator are developed by considering multi-output polynomial radial basis function Neural Networks(pRBFNNs) as well as Fuzzy C-Means clustering and Particle Swarm Optimization. Here, the apexes of the antecedent gaussian functions of fuzzy rules are decided by C-means clustering algorithm and the apexes of the consequent part of fuzzy rules are learned by using back-propagation based on gradient decent method. Also, the parameters related to the fuzzy model are optimized by means of particle swarm optimization. The coefficients of the consequent polynomial of fuzzy rules and performance index are considered by the Least Square Estimation and Mean Squared Error. The descriptions of developed process simulator architecture and ensuing operation method are handled.

In this study, we introduce a new architecture of fuzzy inference system. In the fuzzy inference system, we use Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm to form the premise part of the rules. The membership functions standing in the premise part of fuzzy rules do not assume any explicit functional forms, but for any input the resulting activation levels of such radial basis functions directly depend upon the distance between data points by means of the Fuzzy C-Means clustering. As the consequent part of fuzzy rules of the fuzzy inference system (being the local model representing input output relation in the corresponding sub-space), four types of polynomial are considered, namely constant, linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. This offers a significant level of design flexibility as each rule could come with a different type of the local model in its consequence. Either the Least Square Estimator (LSE) or the weighted Least Square Estimator (WLSE)-based learning is exploited to estimate the coefficients of the consequent polynomial of fuzzy rules. In fuzzy modeling, complexity and interpretability (or simplicity) as well as accuracy of the obtained model are essential design criteria. The performance of the fuzzy inference system is directly affected by some parameters such as e.g., the fuzzification coefficient used in the FCM, the number of rules(clusters) and the order of polynomial in the consequent part of the rules. Accordingly we can obtain preferred model structure through an adjustment of such parameters of the fuzzy inference system. Moreover the comparative experimental study between WLSE and LSE is analyzed according to the change of the number of clusters(rules) as well as polynomial type. The superiority of the proposed model is illustrated and also demonstrated with the use of Automobile Miles per Gallon(MPG), Boston housing called Machine Learning dataset, and Mackey-glass time series dataset.

본 논문에서는 interval type-2 possibilistic fuzzy C-means(IT2PFCM) 클러스터링 방법에 multiple Gaussian kernels을 기반으로 한 possibilistic fuzzy C-means multiple kernels(PFCM-MK) 알고리즘을 결합하여 적응적인 하이브리드 클러스터링 방법인 multiple kernels interval type-2 possibilistic fuzzy C-means(IT2PFCM-MK) 방법을 제안 하였다. 일반적으로 possibilistic fuzzy C-means(PFCM) 알고리즘은 fuzzy C-means(FCM) 알고리즘의 단점인 노이즈 민감성 및 특이점 문제와 알고리즘 초기 클러스터의 Prototype에 따라 위치가 겹치는 문제를 해결하기 위해 제안 되었다. 하지만 이 방법 역시 퍼지화 파라미터 값에 따라 위와 같은 문제를 여전히 가지고 있기 때문에 이와 같은 문제를 보완하기 위해 interval type-2 퍼지 접근 방법을 이용 하는 interval type-2 possibilistic fuzzy C-means(IT2PFCM) 알고리즘을 제안 하였다. 또한 multiple kernels 함수를 interval type-2 possibilistic fuzzy C-means(IT2PFCM) 알고리즘에 적용하여 분류하기 복잡한 형태의 데이터와 노이즈가 있는 데이터에 대하여 보다 정확하고, 향상된 클러스터링을 수행할 수 있다.

In this paper, we compared recognition rates between NN(neural networks) and clustering method as a scheme of off-line PD(partial discharge) diagnosis which occurs at the stator coil of traction motor. To acquire PD data, three defective models are made. PD data for classification were acquired from PD detector. And then statistical distributions are calculated to classify model discharge sources. These statistical distributions were applied as input data of two classification tools, BP(Back propagation algorithm) and ANFIS(adaptive network based fuzzy inference system) pre-processed FCM(fuzzy c-means) clustering method. So, classification rate of BP were somewhat higher than ANFIS. But other items of ANFIS were better than BP; learning time, parameter number, simplicity of algorithm.

음성인식에서 TMHMM(Tied Mixture Hidden Markov Model)은 자유 매개변수의 수를 감소시키기 위한 좋은 접근이지만, GPDF(Gaussian Probability Density Function) 군집화 오류에 의해 음성인식의 오류를 발생시켰다. 본 논문은 TMHMM에서 발생하는 군집화 오류를 최소화하기 위하여 HCNN(Homogeneous Centroid Neural Network) 군집화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 CNN(Centroid Neural Network)을 TMHMM상의 음향 특징벡터에 활용하였으며, 다른 상태에 소속된 확률밀도가 서로 겹쳐진 형태의 이질군집 지역에 더 많은 코드벡터를 할당하기 위해서 본 논문에서 새로 제안이 제안되는 이질성 거리척도를 사용 하였다. 제안된 알고리즘을 한국어 고립 숫자단어의 인식문제에 적용한 결과, 기존 K-means 알고리즘이나 CNN보다 각각 14.63%, 9,39%의 오인식률의 감소를 얻을 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 기반으로 하는 퍼지뉴럴네트워크를 제안한다. 일반적으로, 퍼지규칙을 생성할 때 차원이 증가하면 퍼지 규칙의 수가 기하급수적으로 증가하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 제안된 네트워크의 퍼지 규칙은 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 입력 공간을 분산 형태로 분할함으로써 생성한다. 퍼지 규칙의 전반부 파라미터는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘에 의한 소속행렬로 결정된다. 퍼지 규칙의 후반부는 다항식 함수의 형태로 표현되며, 퍼지뉴럴네트워크의 학습은 뉴런의 연결을 조절함으로써 실현되고, 오류 역전파 알고리즘에 의해 행해진다. 마지막으로, 제안된 네트워크는 비선형 공정으로의 적용을 통해 성능을 평가한다.

Data mining is the method to find useful information for large amounts of data in database. It is used to find hidden knowledge by massive data, unexpectedly pattern, and relation to new rule. The methods of data mining are decision tree, association rules, clustering, neural network and so on. We analyze industrial waste database using data mining technique. We use k-means algorithm for clustering and C5.0 algorithm for decision tree and Apriori algorithm for association rule. We can use these outputs for environmental preservation and environmental improvement.

In this study, a grouping of particle-size distributions(PSDs) by means of the fuzzy c-means clustering method(FCM) was presented. The classification was performed with the whole and the major soil series representing pedological origin. In case of the major soil series, PSDs were clustered as $2{\sim}4$ groups and the characteristics of clustering results were quite different between the soil series. It was found that the characteristics of PSDs at center of each class can be explained by formation process of each soil series. In case of whole soil data, PSDs were classified to 8 classes in which 4 classes were single mode and 4 classes were bimode distributions. Through this study, it is concluded that pedogenetic process is a plausible explanation for grain size distribution of soils.
