The paper concerns Fuzzy C-Means clustering based Radial Basis Function neural networks (FCM-RBFNN) and the optimization of the network is carried out by means of Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). FCM-RBFNN is the extended architecture of Radial Basis Function Neural Network(RBFNN). In the proposed network, the membership functions of the premise part of fuzzy rules do not assume any explicit functional forms such as Gaussian, ellipsoidal, triangular, etc., so its resulting fitness values directly rely on the computation of the relevant distance between data points by means of FCM. Also, as the consequent part of fuzzy rules extracted by the FCM - RBFNN model, the order of four types of polynomials can be considered such as constant, linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. Weighted Least Square Estimator(WLSE) are used to estimates the coefficients of polynomial. Since the performance of FCM-RBFNN is affected by some parameters of FCM-RBFNN such as a specific subset of input variables, fuzzification coefficient of FCM, the number of rules and the order of polynomials of consequent part of fuzzy rule, we need the structural as well as parametric optimization of the network. In this study, the PSO is exploited to carry out the structural as well as parametric optimization of FCM-RBFNN. Moreover The proposed model is demonstrated with the use of numerical example and gas furnace data set.

본 논문은 FCM 군집화 알고리즘을 사용하여 표정영상에서 특징점들을 추출한 후 추출된 특징점으로부터 Gabor 웨이브렛들을 이용하여 표정영상의 국소영역을 복원한다. 얼굴의 특징점 추출은 두단계로 이루어진다. 1단계는 이차원 Gabor 웨이브렛 계수 히스토그램의 평균값을 적용하여 얼굴의 주요 요소성분들의 경계선을 추출한 후, 2단계에서는 추출된 경계선 정보로부터 FCM 군집화 알고리즘을 사용하여 얼굴의 주요 요소성분들의 최종적인 특징점들을 추출한다. 본 연구에서는 FCM 군집화 알고리즘을 이용하여 추출된 적은 수의 특징점들 만으로도 표정영상의 주요 요소들을 복원할 수 있음을 제시한다. 이것은 인간의 얼굴 표정인식 뿐만아니라 물체인식에도 적용되어질 수 있다.

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.

We introduce a hybrid identification of information granulation(IG)-based fuzzy model to carry out the model identification of complex and nonlinear systems. To optimally design the IG-based fuzzy model we exploit a hybrid identification through genetic alrogithms(GAs) and Hard C-Means (HCM) clustering. An initial structure of fuzzy model is identified by determining the number of input, the seleced input variables, the number of membership function, and the conclusion inference type by means of GAs. Granulation of information data with the aid of HCM clustering help determine the initial paramters of fuzzy model such as the initial apexes of the membership functions and the initial values of polyminial functions being used in the premise and consequence part of the fuzzy rules. And the inital parameters are tuned effectively with the aid of the GAs and the least square method. Numerical example is included to evaluate the performance of the proposed model.

Evolutionary algorithms such as genetic algorithm (GA) have been proven their effectiveness when applying to the design of fuzzy models. However, it tends to suffer from computationally expensWive due to the slow convergence speed. In this study, we propose an approach to develop fuzzy models by means of an improved differential evolution (IDE) to overcome this limitation. The improved differential evolution (IDE) is realized by means of an orthogonal approach and differential evolution. With the invoking orthogonal method, the IDE can search the solution space more efficiently. In the design of fuzzy models, we concern two mechanisms, namely structure identification and parameter estimation. The structure identification is supported by the IDE and C-Means while the parameter estimation is realized via IDE and a standard least square error method. Experimental studies demonstrate that the proposed model leads to improved performance. The proposed model is also contrasted with the quality of some fuzzy models already reported in the literature.

비선형 공정에 대한 퍼지 모델링에서, 퍼지 규칙은 일반적으로 입력 변수 선택, 공간 분할 수 및 소속 함수에 의해 형성된다. 비선형 공정에 대한 퍼지 규칙의 생성은 차원이 증가할수록 규칙의 수가 지수적으로 증가하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 입력 공간의 퍼지 분할에 의한 퍼지 규칙을 생성함으로써 복잡한 비선형 공정을 모델링 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 HCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 입력 공간을 분산 형태로 분할함으로써 비퍼지 추론 시스템의 규칙을 생성한다. 규칙의 전반부 파라미터는 HCM 클러스터링 알고리즘에 의한 소속행렬로 결정된다. 규칙의 후반부는 다항식 함수의 형태로 표현되며, 각 규칙의 후반부 파라미터들은 표준 최소자승법에 의해 동정된다. 마지막으로, 비선형 공정으로는 널리 이용되는 데이터를 이용하여 비선형 특성 및 성능을 평가한다. 본 실험을 통해 고차원의 비선형 시스템은 매우 적은 수의 규칙을 가지고 모델링할 수 있었다.

클러스터링은 주어진 데이터 포인트들을 주어진 개수의 그룹으로 나누는 비지도 학습의 한 방법이다. 클러스터링의 방법 중 하나로 널리 알려진 퍼지 클러스터링은 하나의 포인트가 모든 클러스터에 서로 다른 정도로 소속될 수 있도록 함으로써 하나의 클러스터에만 속할 수 있도록 하는 K-means와 같은 방법에 비해 자연스러운 클러스터 형태의 유추가 가능하고, 잡음에 강한 장점이 있다. 이 논문에서는 기존의 퍼지 클러스터링 방법 중 소속도(membership)와 전형성(typicality)을 동시에 계산해 낼 수 있는 Possibilistic Fuzzy C-Means(PFCM) 방법에 Gath-Geva(CG)의 방법을 적용하여 PFCM을 개선한다. 제안한 방법은 PFCM 장점을 그대로 가지면서도, GG의 거리 척도에 의해 클러스터들 사이의 경계를 강조함으로써 분류 목적에 적합한 소속도를 계산할 수 있으며 전형성은 가우스 형태의 분포에서 생성된 포인트들의 분포 함수를 정확하게 모사함으로써 확률 밀도 추정의 방법으로도 사용될 수 있다. 또한 GG 방법은 Gustafson-Kessel 방법과 달리 클러스터에 포함된 포인트의 개수가 확연히 차이나는 경우에도 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 사실들은 실험 결과를 통해 확인할 수 있다.

The recycling cell formation problem means that disposal products are classified into recycling part families using group technology in their end-of-life phase. Disposal products have the uncertainties of product status by usage influences during product use phase, and recycling cells are formed design, process and usage attributes. In order to deal with the uncertainties, fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic-based neural network model are applied to recycling cell formation problem for disposal products. Fuzzy C-mean algorithm and a heuristic approach based on fuzzy ART neural network is suggested. Especially, the modified Fuzzy ART neural network is shown that it has a good clustering results and gives an extension for systematically generating alternative solutions in the recycling cell formation problem. Disposal refrigerators are shown as examples.

In this paper, the improved Multi-FNN (Fuzzy-Neural Networks) model is identified and optimized using HCM (Hard C-Means) clustering method and optimization algorithms. The proposed Multi-FNN is based on FNN and use simplified and linear inference as fuzzy inference method and error back propagation algorithm as learning rules. We use a HCM clustering and genetic algorithms (GAs) to identify both the structure and the parameters of a Multi-FNN model. Here, HCM clustering method, which is carried out for the process data preprocessing of system modeling, is utilized to determine the structure of Multi-FNN according to the divisions of input-output space using I/O process data. Also, the parame...

Most of the current 2-D object recognition systems are model-based. In such systems, the representation of each of a known set of objects are precompiled and stored in a database of models. Later, they are used to recognize the image of an object in each instance. In this thesis, the approach method for the 2-D object recognition is treating an object boundary as a string of structral units and utilizing string matching to analyze the scenes. To reduce string matching time, models are rebuilt by means of fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm. In this experiments, the image of objects were taken at initial position of a robot from the CCD camera, and the models are consturcted by the proposed algorithm. After that the image of an unknown object is taken by the camera at a random position, and then the unknown object is identified by a comparison between the unknown object and models. Finally, the amount of translation and rotation of object from the initial position is computed.
