In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks(FPNN) by means of genetically optimized Fuzzy Polynomial Neuron(FPN) and discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization, especially Genetic Algorithms(GAs). The conventional FPNN developed so far are based on mechanisms of self-organization and evolutionary optimization. The design of the network exploits the extended Group Method of Data Handling(GMDH) with some essential parameters of the network being provided by the designer and kept fixed throughout the overall development process. This restriction may hamper a possibility of producing an optimal architecture of the model. The proposed FPNN gives rise to a structurally optimized network and comes with a substantial level of flexibility in comparison to the one we encounter in conventional FPNNs. It is shown that the proposed advanced genetic algorithms based Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks is more useful and effective than the existing models for nonlinear process. We experimented with Medical Imaging System(MIS) dataset to evaluate the performance of the proposed model.

In this paper we introduce a modified objective function for fuzzy c-means clustering with logistic regression model in the presence of noise cluster. The logistic regression model is commonly used to describe the effect of one or several explanatory variables on a binary response variable. In real application there is very often no sharp boundary between clusters so that fuzzy clustering is often better suited for the data.

본 논문에서는 초음파 영상에서 환자 정보를 제거하여 ROI 영역을 추출하고, 추출된 ROI 영역에서 최대 명암도를 임계치로 설정한 이진화 기법을 적용하여 ROI 영역을 이진화 한다. 이진화된 ROI 영역에서 4 방향 윤곽선 추적 기법을 적용하여 상완동맥 혈류 영역이 존재하는 사다리꼴 형태의 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 사다리꼴 형태의 영역에서 상완동맥 혈류영역을 정확히 추출하기 위하여 제안된 무게 중심법을 이용하여 추출된 후보 영역을 양자화 한다. 무게 중심법은 추출된 사다리꼴 영역에서 FCM 기반 무게중심법과 PCM 기반 무게중심법을 각각 계산한 후, 두 중심 간의 차이가 존재 할 경우에는 두 중심의 평균값을 새로운 무게 중심으로 설정하여 각 픽셀들을 클러스터링하여 상완 동맥 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 상완 동맥 영역에는 고혈압 영역인 빨강색 영역과 저혈압이나 혈류가 역류하는 영역인 파란색 영역이 존재한다. 추출된 상완 동맥 영역에서 고혈압 영역만을 추출하기 위해 빨강색 영역을 제외한 그 외의 영역은 제거한다. 전문의가 제공한 상완동맥 혈류 초음파 영상을 대상으로 TPR(True Positive Rate) 검사을 분석한 결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 방법 보다 TPR 값이 높게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다.

The aim of this research is to overall analyze/classify characteristics of Asian major ports. To achieve this aim, we firstly pointed out critical problems on research methodology and research scope which most of previous research have, from related literature review. In order to overcome those problems, major ports in A냠 were selected by the objective indicators, and both algorithms of AHP(Analytic Hierarchical Process) and FCM(Fuzzy C-Means) that revise weakness in previous clustering method were used. Through these hybrid approach, it were found that only 10 ports of 16 major Asian ports had their own phases in Asian major ports. Those 10 ports were classified into 6 port groups, and also membership degree of each port within the 4 port groups and ranking of each ports seer analyzed. Finally, based on results of these analysis, present status and future direction of Busan port were discussed.

Fuzzy C-Means(FCM) algorithm is frequently used as a representative image segmentation method using clustering. FCM divides the image space into cluster regions with similar pixel values, which requires a lot of segmentation time. In particular, the processing speed problem for analyzing various patterns of the current users of the web is more important. To solve this speed problem, this paper proposes an improved FCM (Improved FCM : IFCM) algorithm for segmenting the image into the Otsu threshold and FCM. In the proposed method, the threshold that maximizes the variance between classes of Otsu is determined, applied to the FCM, and the image is segmented. Experiments show that IFCM improves performance by shortening image segmentation time compared to conventional FCM.

Fuzzy modeling is generally using the given data and the fuzzy rules are established by the input variables and the space division by selecting the input variable and dividing the input space for each input variables. The premise part of the fuzzy rule is presented by selection of the input variables, the number of space division and membership functions and in this paper the consequent part of the fuzzy rule is identified by polynomial functions in the form of linear inference and modified quadratic. Parameter identification in the premise part devides input space Min-Max method using the minimum and maximum values of input data set and C-Means clustering algorithm forming input data into the hard clusters. The identification of the consequence parameters, namely polynomial coefficients, of each rule are carried out by the standard least square method. In this paper, membership function of the premise part is dividing input space by using trapezoid-type membership function and by using gas furnace process which is widely used in nonlinear process we evaluate the performance.

The new design methodology of a hybrid fuzzy controller by means of the genetic algorithms is presented. In fuzzy controller which has been widely applied and used. in order to construct the best fuzzy rules that include adjustment of fuzzy sets, a highly skilled techniques using trial and error are required. To deal with such a problem, first, a hybrid fuzzy controller(HFC) related to the optimal estimation of control parameters is proposed. The HFC combined a PID controller with a fuzzy controller concurrently produces the better output performance than any other controller from each control output in steady state and transient state. Second, a auto-tuning algorithms is presented to automatically improve the performance of hybrid fuzzy controller, utilizing the simplified reasoning method and genetic algorithms. In addition, to obtain scaling factors and PID Parameters of HFC using GA, three kinds of estimation modes such as basic, contraction, and expansion mode are effectively utilized. The HFCs are applied to the first-order second-order process with time-delay and DC motor Computer simulations are conducted at step input and the performances of systems are evaluated and also discussed from performance indices.

In this paper, we introduce a new structure of fuzzy-neural networks Fuzzy Set-based Polynomial Neural Networks (FSPNN). The two underlying design mechanisms of such networks involve genetic optimization and information granulation. The resulting constructs are Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (FPNN) with fuzzy set-based polynomial neurons (FSPNs) regarded as their generic processing elements. First, we introduce a comprehensive design methodology (viz. a genetic optimization using Genetic Algorithms) to determine the optimal structure of the FSPNNs. This methodology hinges on the extended Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) and fuzzy set-based rules. It concerns FSPNN-related parameters such as the number of input variables, the order of the polynomial, the number of membership functions, and a collection of a specific subset of input variables realized through the mechanism of genetic optimization. Second, the fuzzy rules used in the networks exploit the notion of information granules defined over systems variables and formed through the process of information granulation. This granulation is realized with the aid of the hard C- Means clustering (HCM). The performance of the network is quantified through experimentation in which we use a number of modeling benchmarks already experimented with in the realm of fuzzy or neurofuzzy modeling.

For ranking fuzzy numbers, comparisons between numbers are necessary However, the comparison results can be vague since fuzzy numbers represent vague numeric values. Thus, ranking results of fuzzy numbers which are based on comparisons between fuzzy numbers, could also be vague. This means that there could be several possible ranking sequences of fuzzy numbers. There have been proposed many ranking methods for fuzzy numbers. However, most of them generate only ranking sequence. In this paper, we present a ranking method for fuzzy numbers using the fuzzy satisfaction function, Our method generates several possible ranking sequences of the given fuzzy numbers using the fuzzy satisfaction function.

The recycling cell formation problem means that disposal products me 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 treat the uncertainties, fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic-based neural network model are applied to recycling cell formation problem far disposal products. In this paper, a heuristic approach fuzzy ART neural network is suggested. The modified fuzzy ART neural network is shown that it has a great efficiency and give an extension for systematically generating alternative solutions in the recycling cell formation problem. We present the results of this approach applied to disposal refrigerators and the comparison of performances between other algorithms. This paper introduced a procedure which integrates economic and environmental factors into the disassembly of disposal products for recycling in recycling cells. A qualitative method of disassembly analysis is developed and its ai is to improve the efficiency of the disassembly and to generated an optimal disassembly which maximize profits and minimize environmental impact. Three criteria established to reduce the search space and facilitate recycling opportunities.
