This paper suggests fuzzy-based Segment-Boost method and an effective method for face recognition using the fuzzy-based Segment-Boost. Fuzzy-based Segment-Boost eliminates the limitations of Segment-Boost, and it guarantees improved learning performance and the stability of the performance. By using the fuzzy theory, fuzzy-based Segment-Boost optimizes the selection number of sub-vectors, and leads the optimized learning performance. The fuzzy controller designed in this paper measures learning performance of the fuzzy-based Segment-Boost, and it controls the selection number of sub-vectors by inferring the optimized selection number. The simulation results show that the fuzzy controller inferred the selection number which is very approximate to the true optimized value. As a result, fuzzy-based Segment-Boost showed higher face recognition rate than compared boosting methods and it preserves the velocity of feature selection as fast as that of Segment-Boost. From the experimental results, it was proved that fuzzy-based Segment-Boost has improved and stable performances of learning, feature selection and face recognition.

In this paper, first we propose an architecture of fuzzy neural networks with triangular fuzzy weights. The proposed fuzzy neural network can handle fuzzy input vectors. In both cases, outputs from the fuzzy network are fuzzy vectors. The input-output relation of each unit of the fuzzy neural network is defined by the extention principle of Zadeh. Also we define a cost function for the level sets(i. e., $\alpha$-cuts)of fuzzy outputs and fuzzy targets. Then we derive a learning algorithm from the cost function for adjusting three parameters of each triangular fuzzy weight. Finally, we illustrate our a, pp.oach by computer simulation examples.

In this paper, a new fuzzy single layer learning algorithm is proposed, which shows improved learning time and convergence property than that of the conventional fuzzy single layer perceptron algorithms. First, we investigate the structure of physiological neurons of the nervous system and propose new neuron structures based on fuzzy logic. And by using the proposed fuzzy neuron structures, the model and learning algorithm of Physiological Fuzzy Single Layer Perceptron(P-FSLP) are proposed. For the evaluation of performance of the P-FSLP algorithm, we applied the conventional fuzzy single layer perceptron algorithms and the P-FSLP algorithm to three experiments including Exclusive OR problem, the 3-bit parity bit problem and the recognition of car licence plates, which is an application of image recognition, and evaluated the performance of the algorithms. The experimentation results showed that the proposed P-FSLP algorithm reduces the possibility of local minima more than the conventional fuzzy single layer perceptrons do, and enhances the time and convergence for learning. Furthermore, we found that the P-FSLP algorithm has the great capability for image recognition applications.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of cruise control system of a mobile robot with two drive wheel. The proposed control scheme uses a Gaussian function as a unit function in the fuzzy-neural network, and back propagation algorithm to train the fuzzy-neural network controller in the framework of the specialized learnign architecture. It is proposed a learning controller consisting of two neural networks-fuzzy based on independent reasoning and a connecton net with fixed weights to simply the neural networks-fuzzy. The performance of the proposed controller is shown by performing the computer simulation for trajectory tracking of the speed and azimuth of a mobile robot driven by two independent wheels.

Face recognition is a science of automatically identifying individuals based their unique facial features. In order to avoid overfitting and reduce the computational reduce the computational burden, a new face recognition algorithm using PCA-fisher linear discriminant (PCA-FLD) and fuzzy radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) is proposed in this paper. First, face features are extracted by the principal component analysis (PCA) method. Then, the extracted features are further processed by the Fisher's linear discriminant technique to acquire lower-dimensional discriminant patterns, the processed features will be considered as the input of the fuzzy RBFNN. As a widely applied algorithm in fuzzy RBF neural network, BP learning algorithm has the low rate of convergence, therefore, an improved learning algorithm based on Levenberg-Marquart (L-M) for fuzzy RBF neural network is introduced in this paper, which combined the Gradient Descent algorithm with the Gauss-Newton algorithm. Experimental results on the ORL face database demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has satisfactory performance and high recognition rate.

A fuzzy learning control algorithm is proposed in this paper. In this method, two fuzzy controllers are used as a feedback and a feedforward type. The fuzzy feedback controller can be designed using simple knowledge for the controlled system. On the other hand, the fuzzy feedforward controller has a self-organizing mechanism and therefore, it does not need any knowledge in advance. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by experiment on the position and force control problem of a parallelogram type robot manipulator with two degrees of freedom. It is shown that the rapid learning and the robustness can be achieved by adopting the proposed method.

This paper propose a fuzzy regression method using fuzzy neural networks when a membership value is attached to each input -output pair. First, an architecture of fuzzy neural networks with fuzzy weights and fuzzy biases is shown. Next, a cost function is defined using the fuzzy output from the fuzzy neural network and the corresponding target output with a membership value. A learning algorithm is derived from the cost function. The derived learning algorithm trains the fuzzy neural network so that the level set of the fuzzy output includes the target output. Last, the proposed method is applied to the quality evaluation problem of injection molding

In this paper, an auto-tuning method for fuzzy controller's membership functions based on the neural network is presented. The neural network emulator offers the path which reforms the fuzzy controller's membership functions and fuzzy rule, and the reformed fuzzy controller uses for speed control of induction motor. Thus, in the case of motor parameter variation, the proposed method is superior to a conventional method in the respect of operation time and system performance. 32bit micro-processor DSP(TMS320C31) is used to achieve the high speed calculation of the space voltage vector PWM and to build the self-learning fuzzy control algorithm. Through computer simulation and experimental results, it is confirmed that the proposed method can provide more improved control performance than that PI controller and conventional fuzzy controller.

Performance assessment was introduced to improvement of self-directed learning and method of assessment for differenced learning as the seventh educational curriculum is enforced. Performance assessment is overcoming limitation about problem solving ability and higher thinking abilities assessment that is problem of a written examination and get into the spotlight by way for quality of class and school normalization. But, performance assessment has problems about possibilities of assessment fault by appraisal, fairness, reliability, and validity of grading, ambiguity of grading standard, difficulty about objectivity security etc. This study proposes fuzzy performance assessment system to solve problem of the conventional performance assessment. This paper presented an objective and reliable performance assessment method through fuzzy reasoning, design fuzzy membership function and define fuzzy rule analyzing factor that influence in each sacred ground of performance assessment to account principle subject. Also, performance assessment item divides by formation estimation and subject estimation and designed membership function in proposed performance assessment method. Performance assessment result that is worked through fuzzy performance assessment system can pare down burden about appraisal's fault and provide fair and reliable assessment result through grading that have correct standard and consistency to students.
