The descriptive grade evaluation system is adopting to solve the problems of pre-exiting system that refers to marks and ranks. However, it increases the work load and creates inconsistencies of the grade evaluations due to teachers subjective evaluations. In this Paper, I suggest a grade evaluation system, applying the Fuzzy reasoning on web for teachers to evaluate students more effectively. Teachers can input the results of the accomplishment assessments. It also evaluates with the Fuzzy reasoning to attain the final evaluation of the subjects. The system also creates descriptive evaluation sentences by abstracting some sentences for evaluation utilizing the properties of the Fuzzy reasoning rules.

An emergency response system (ERS) for vessel oil spills is a complex and dynamic system comprising a number of subsystems and activities. Failures may occur during the emergency response operations, this has negative impacts on the effectiveness of the ERS. Of the classes of problems in analyzing failures, the lack of quantitative data is fundamental. In fact, most of the empirical data collected via questionnaire survey is subjective in nature and is inevitably associated with uncertainties caused by the human being's inability to provide complete judgement. In addition, incomplete information and/or vagueness of the meaning about the failures add difficulties in evaluating the effectiveness of the system. Therefore this paper proposes a framework to evaluate the ERS effectiveness by using the combination of fuzzy reasoning and evidential synthesis approaches. Based on analyzing the procedure of ERS for oil spills, the failures in the system could be identified, using Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)to determine the relative weight of identified failures. Fuzzy reasoning combined with evidential synthesis is applied to evaluate the effectiveness of ERS for oil spills under uncertainties last. The proposed method is capable of dealing with uncertainties in data including ignorance and vagueness which traditional methods cannot effectively handle. A case study is used to illustrate the application of the proposed method.

A promising approach to get the benefits of neural networks and fuzzy logic is to combine them into an integrated system to merge the computational power of neural networks and the representation and reasoning properties of fuzzy logic. In this context, this paper presents a fuzzy neural network which is able to code fuzzy knowledge in the form of it-then rules in its structure. The network also provides an efficient structure not only to code knowledge, but also to support fuzzy reasoning and information processing. A learning scheme is also derived for a class of membership functions.

We have designed a multiple-valued fuzzy Approximate Analogical-Reseaning system (AARS). The system uses a similarity measure of fuzzy sets and a threshold of similarity ST to determine whether a rule should be fired, with a Modification Function inferred from the Similarity Measure to deduce a consequent. Multiple-valued basic fuzzy blocks are used to construct the system. A description of the system is presented to illustrate the operation of the schema. The results of simulations show that the system can perform about 3.5 x 106 inferences per second. Finally, we compare the system with Yamakawa's chip which is based on the Compositional Rule of Inference (CRI) with Mamdani's implication.

In this study, a predictive fuzzy control algorithm to supervise the elevator system with plural cars is developed and its performance is evaluated. The proposed algorithm is based on fuzzy in-ference system to cope with multiple control objects and uncertainty of system state. The control objects are represented as linguistic predictive fuzzy rules and simplified reasoning method is utilized as a fuzzy inference method. Real-time simulation is performed with respect o all possible modes of control, and the resultant controls ard predicted. The predicted rusults are then utilized as the control in-puts of the fuzzy rules. The feasibility of the proposed control algorithm is evaluated by graphic simulator on computer. Finallu, the results of graphic simulation is compared with those of a conventional group control algorighm.

Case-based reasoning is emerging as a leading methodology for the application of artificial intelligence. CBR is a reasoning methodology that exploits similar experienced solutions, in the form of past cases, to solve new problems. Hybrid model achieves some convergence of the wide proliferation of credit evaluation modeling. As a result, Hybrid model showed that proposed methodology classify more accurately than any of techniques individually do. It is confirmed that proposed methodology predicts significantly better than individual techniques and the other combining methodologies. The objective of the proposed approach is to determines a set of weighting values that can best formalize the match between the input case and the previously stored cases and integrates fuzzy sit concepts into the case indexing and retrieval process. The GA is used to search for the best set of weighting values that are able to promote the association consistency among the cases. The fitness value in this study is defined as the number of old cases whose solutions match the input cases solution. In order to obtain the fitness value, many procedures have to be executed beforehand. Also this study tries to transform financial values into category ones using fuzzy logic approach fur performance of credit evaluation. Fuzzy set theory allows numerical features to be converted into fuzzy terms to simplify the matching process, and allows greater flexibility in the retrieval of candidate cases. Our proposed model is to apply an intelligent system for bankruptcy prediction.

In this paper, we present a novel approach for the structure of Fuzzy Neural Network(FNN) based on wavelet function and apply this network structure to the solution of the tracking problem for mobile robots. Generally, the wavelet fuzzy model(WFM) has the advantage of the wavelet transform by constituting the fuzzy basis function(FBF) and the conclusion part to equalize the linear combination of FBF with the linear combination of wavelet functions. However, it is very difficult to identify the fuzzy rules and to tune the membership functions of the fuzzy reasoning mechanism. Neural networks, on the other hand, utilize their learning capability for automatic identification and tuning. Therefore, we design a wavelet based FNN structure(WFNN) that merges these advantages of neural network, fuzzy model and wavelet transform. The basic idea of our wavelet based FNN is to realize the process of fuzzy reasoning of wavelet fuzzy system by the structure of a neural network and to make the parameters of fuzzy reasoning be expressed by the connection weights of a neural network. And our network can automatically identify the fuzzy rules by modifying the connection weights of the networks via the gradient descent scheme. To verify the efficiency of our network structure, we evaluate the tracking performance for mobile robot and compare it with those of the FNN and the WFM.

In this study, we develop the Genetic Fuzzy System(GFS) to estimate the link traveling speed. Based on the genetic algorithm, we can get the fuzzy rules and membership functions that reflect more accurate correlation between traffic data and speed. From the fact that there exist missing links that lack traffic data, we added a Case Base Reasoning(CBR) to GFS to support estimating the speed of missing links. The case base stores the fuzzy rules and membership functions as its instances. As cases are accumulated, the case base comes to offer appropriate cases to missing links. Experiments show that the proposed GFS provides the more accurate estimation of link traveling speed than existing methods.

Fuzzy control systems depend on a number of parameters such as the shape or magnitude of the fuzzy membership functions, etc. Conventional fuzzy reasoning method can not be easily applied to the multi-input multi-output(MIMO) system due to the large number of rules in the rule base. Recently Z. Cao et al have proposed a New Fuzzy Reasoning Method(NFRM) which turned out to be superior to Zadeh's FRM. We have extended the NFRM to handle the MIMO system. However, it is difficult to choose a proper relation matrix of the NFRM. Therefore, we have modified the evolution strategy(ES), which is one of the optimization algorithms, to do efficiently the tuning operation for the extended NFRM. Finally we applied the extended NFRM with the modified ES to tracking control of robot manipulator.
