The initial fuzzy partitions in fuzzy rule-based classification systems are determined by considering the domain region of each attribute with the given data, and the optimal classification boundaries within the fuzzy partitions can be discovered by tuning their parameters using various learning processes such as neural network, genetic algorithm, and so on. In this paper, we propose a selection method for fuzzy partition based on statistical information to maximize the performance of pattern classification without learning processes where statistical information is used to extract the uncertainty regions (i.e., the regions which the classification boundaries in pattern classification problems are determined) in each input attribute from the numerical data. Moreover the methods for extracting the candidate rules which are associated with the partition intervals generated by statistical information and for minimizing the coupling problem between the candidate rules are additionally discussed. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compared the classification accuracy of the proposed with those of conventional methods on the IRIS and New Thyroid Cancer data. From experimental results, we can confirm the fact that the proposed method only considering statistical information of the numerical patterns provides equal to or better classification accuracy than that of the conventional methods.

A rule weight -based fuzzy classification model is proposed to analyze the patterns of admission-discharge of patients as a previous research for differential diagnosis of dyspnea. The proposed model is automatically generated from a labeled data set, supervised learning strategy, using three procedure methodology: i) select fuzzy partition regions from spatial distribution of data; ii) generate fuzzy membership functions from the selected partition regions; and iii) extract a set of candidate rules and resolve a conflict problem among the candidate rules. The effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy classification model was demonstrated by comparing the experimental results for the dyspnea patients' data set with 11 features selected from 55 features by clinicians with those obtained using the conventional classification methods, such as standard fuzzy classifier without rule weights, C4.5, QDA, kNN, and SVMs.

The generation of fuzzy rules is inevitable in order to construct fuzzy modeling and in general, has the problem that the number of rules increases exponentially with increasing dimension. To solve this problem, we introduce the system that generate the fuzzy rules and make a inference based on FCM clustering algorithm that partition the input space in the scatter form. The parameters in the premise part of the fuzzy rules is determined as membership matrix by the FCM clustering algorithm and the consequence part of the fuzzy rules is are expressed as a polynomial function. Proposed model evaluated using the numerical data.

Smart home is one of the ubiquitous environment platforms with various complex sensor-and-control network. In this paper, a now learning methodology for learning user's behavior preference pattern is proposed in the sense of reductive user's cognitive load to access complex interfaces and providing personalized services. We propose a fuzzy inductive learning methodology based on life-long learning paradigm for knowledge discovery, which tries to construct efficient fuzzy partition for each input space and to extract fuzzy association rules from the numerical data pattern.

In this paper, we propose a hierarchical fuzzy-rough classification method based on statistical information for maximizing the performance of pattern classification and reducing the number of rules without learning approaches such as neural network, genetic algorithm. In the proposed method, statistical information is used for extracting the partition intervals of antecedent fuzzy sets at each layer on hierarchical fuzzy-rough classification systems and rough sets are used for minimizing the number of fuzzy if-then rules which are associated with the partition intervals extracted by statistical information. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compared the classification results(e.g. the classification accuracy and the number of rules) of the proposed with those of the conventional methods on the Fisher's IRIS data. From the experimental results, we can confirm the fact that the proposed method considers only statistical information of the given data is similar to the classification performance of the conventional methods.

In this paper, the ciassification of Korean character type using multi neural network and fuzzy inference based on block partition is studied. For the effective classification of a consonant and a vowel, block partition method which devide the region of a consonant and a vowel for each type in the character is proposed. And the partitioned block can be changed according to the each type adaptively. For the improvement of classification rate, the multi neural network with a whole and a part neural network is consisted, and the character type by using fuzzy inference is decided. To verify the validity of the proposed method, computer simulation is accomplished, and from the classification rate $92.6\%$, the effectivity of the method is confirmed.

The modification of conditional Fuzzy C-Means (CFCM) with Gaussian weights (CFCM_GW) is accomplished for blind equalization of channels in this paper. The proposed CFCM_GW can deal with both of linear and nonlinear channels, because it searches for the optimal desired states of an unknown channel in a direct manner, which is not dependent on the type of channel structure. In the search procedure of CFCM_GW, the Bayesian likelihood fitness function, the Gaussian weighted partition matrix and the conditional constraint are exploited. Especially, in contrast to the common Euclidean distance in conventional Fuzzy C-Means(FCM), the Gaussian weighted partition matrix and the conditional constraint in the proposed CFCM_GW make it more robust to the heavy noise communication environment. The selected channel states by CFCM_GW are always close to the optimal set of a channel even when the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is heavily corrupted. These given channel states are utilized as the input of the Bayesian equalizer to reconstruct transmitted symbols. The simulation studies demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is relatively superior to those of the existing conventional FCM based approaches in terms of accuracy and speed.

In this paper, we propose new algorithms for the partition of input space and the generation of fuzzy control rules. The one consists of Shannon and extended fuzzy entropy function, the other consists of adaptive fuzzy neural system with back propagation teaming rule. The focus of this scheme is to realize the optimal fuzzy rule base with the minimal number of the parameters of the rules, reducing the complexity of the system. The proposed algorithm is tested with the time series prediction problem using Mackey-Glass chaotic time series.

An alternative approach to the design of application-driven fuzzy systems is proposed. A broad class of fuzzy systems applications requires a certain fuzzy partition of the input space while it demands for simple numerical quantities. For this class, a dedicated fuzzy system archictecture is presented and a design strategy is proposed. Both the single-input/single-output and multi-input/multi-output cases are considered. Numerical analysis are complete illustrating several aspects of the proposed framework.

In this paper, blind equalization using a modified Fuzzy C-Means algorithm with Gaussian Weights (MFCM_GW) is attempted to the heavy noise-corrupted channels. The proposed algorithm can deal with both of linear and nonlinear channels, because it searches for the optimal channel output states of a channel instead of estimating the channel parameters in a direct manner. In contrast to the common Euclidean distance in Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), the use of the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and the Gaussian weighted partition matrix is exploited in its search procedure. The selected channel states by MFCM_GW are always close to the optimal set of a channel even the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is heavily corrupted in it. Simulation studies demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is relatively superior to existing genetic algorithm (GA) and conventional FCM based methods in terms of accuracy and speed.
