In the design of underground excavation, the shear strength (SS) is a key characteristic. It describes the way the rock material resists the shear stress-induced deformations. In general, the measurement of the parameters related to rock shear strength is done through laboratory experiments, which are costly, damaging, and time-consuming. Add to this the difficulty of preparing core samples of acceptable quality, particularly in case of highly weathered and fractured rock. This study applies rock index test to the indirect measurement of the SS parameters of shale. For this aim, two efficient artificial intelligence methods, namely (1) adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) implemented by subtractive clustering method (SCM) and (2) support vector regression (SVR) optimized by Harmony Search (HS) algorithm, are proposed. Note that, it is the first work that predicts the SS parameters of shale through ANFIS-SCM and SVR-HS hybrid models. In modeling processes of ANFIS-SCM and SVR-HS, the results obtained from the rock index tests were set as inputs, while the SS parameters were set as outputs. By reviewing the obtained results, it was found that both ANFIS-SCM and SVR-HS models can provide acceptable predictions for interlocking and friction angle parameters, however, ANFIS-SCM showed a better generalization capability.

In this research, we propose an automatic knowledge acquisition and composite knowledge expression mechanism based on machine learning and relational database. Most of traditional approaches to develop a knowledge base and inference engine of expert systems were based on IF-THEN rules, AND-OR graph, Semantic networks, and Frame separately. However, there are some limitations such as automatic knowledge acquisition, complicate knowledge expression, expansibility of knowledge base, speed of inference, and hierarchies among rules. To overcome these limitations, many of researchers tried to develop an automatic knowledge acquisition, composite knowledge expression, and fast inference method. As a result, the adaptability of the expert systems was improved rapidly. Nonetheless, they didn't suggest a hybrid and generalized solution to support the entire process of development of expert systems. Our proposed mechanism has five advantages empirically. First, it could extract the specific domain knowledge from incomplete database based on machine learning algorithm. Second, this mechanism could reduce the number of rules efficiently according to the rule extraction mechanism used in machine learning. Third, our proposed mechanism could expand the knowledge base unlimitedly by using relational database. Fourth, the backward inference engine developed in this study, could manipulate the knowledge base stored in relational database rapidly. Therefore, the speed of inference is faster than traditional text -oriented inference mechanism. Fifth, our composite knowledge expression mechanism could reflect the traditional knowledge expression method such as IF-THEN rules, AND-OR graph, and Relationship matrix simultaneously. To validate the inference ability of our system, a real data set was adopted from a clinical diagnosis classifying the dermatology disease.

We introduce a new architecture of hetero-hybridized feed-forward neural networks composed of fuzzy set-based polynomial neural networks (FSPNN) and polynomial neural networks (PM) that are based on a genetically optimized multi-layer perceptron and develop their comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization and Information Granulation. The construction of Information Granulation based HFSPNN (IG-HFSPNN) exploits fundamental technologies of Computational Intelligence(Cl), namely fuzzy sets, neural networks, and genetic algorithms(GAs) and Information Granulation. The architecture of the resulting genetically optimized Information Granulation based HFSPNN (namely IG-gHFSPNN) results from a synergistic usage of the hybrid system generated by combining new fuzzy set based polynomial neurons (FPNs)-based Fuzzy Neural Networks(PM) with polynomial neurons (PNs)-based Polynomial Neural Networks(PM). The design of the conventional genetically optimized HFPNN exploits the extended Group Method of Data Handling(GMDH) with some essential parameters of the network being tuned by using Genetie Algorithms throughout the overall development process. However, the new proposed IG-HFSPNN adopts a new method called as Information Granulation to deal with Information Granules which are included in the real system, and a new type of fuzzy polynomial neuron called as fuzzy set based polynomial neuron. The performance of the IG-gHFPNN is quantified through experimentation.

In this study, a new architecture and comprehensive design methodology of genetically optimized Multi-layer Fuzzy Neural Networks (gMFNN) are introduced and a series of numeric experiments are carried out. The gMFNN architecture results from a synergistic usage of the hybrid system generated by combining Fuzzy Neural Networks (FNN) with Polynomial Neural Networks (PNN). FNN contributes to the formation of the premise part of the overall network structure of the gMFNN. The consequence part of the gMFNN is designed using PNN. The optimization of the FNN is realized with the aid of a standard back-propagation learning algorithm and genetic optimization. The development of the PNN dwells on the extended Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) method and Genetic Algorithms (GAs). To evaluate the performance of the gMFNN, the models are experimented with the use of a numerical example.

This paper is proposed hybrid artificial intelligent(HAI) controller for speed control of surface permanent magnet synchronous motor(SPMSM) drive. The design of this algorithm based on HAI controller that is implemented using fuzzy control and neural network. This controller uses fuzzy rule as training patterns of a neural network. Also, this controller uses the back-propagation method to adjust the weights between the neurons of neural network in order to minimize the error between the command output and actual output. A model reference adaptive scheme is proposed in which the adaptation mechanism is executed by fuzzy logic based on the error and change of error measured between the motor speed and output of a reference model. The control performance of the HAI controller is evaluated by analysis for various operating conditions. The results of analysis prove that the proposed control system has strong high performance and robustness to parameter variation, and steady-state accuracy and transient response.

As an approach to design the intelligent controller, this paper proposes a new FNN(Fuzzy Neural Network) control method using the hybrid combination of fuzzy logic control and neural network. The proposed FNN controller has two important capabilities, namely, adaptation and learning. These functions are performed by the following process. Firstly, identification of the parameters and estimation of the states for the unknown plant are achieved by the MNN(Model Neural Network) which is continuously trained on-line. And secondly, the learning is performed by FNN controller. The error back propagation algorithm is adopted as a learning technique. The effectiveness of the proposed method will be demonstrated by computer simulation of a two d.o.f. robot manipulator.

Fuzzy logic and neural networks are complemetary technologies in the design of intelligent system. Fuzzy neural network(FNN) as an auto-tuning method is actually known to an excellent method for the adjustment of the fuzzy rule. However, this has a weak point, because the convergence to the optimum depends on the initial condition. In this paper we develop a coding format to determine a FNN model by chromosome in GA and present systematic approach to identify the parameters and structure of FNN. The proposed hybrid tuning method realizes to construct minimal and optimal structure of the fuzzy mode simultaneously and automatically. This paper shows effectiveness of the tuning system by simulations compared with conventional methods.
