Using the continuous Hopfield network model as the basis to solve the general crisp and fuzzy constrained optimization problem is presented and examined. The model lies in its transformation to a parallel algorithm which distributes the work of numerical optimization to several simultaneously computing processors. The method is applied to different structural engineering design problems that demonstrate this usefulness, satisfaction or potential. The computing algorithm has been given and discussed for a designer who can program it without difficulty.

This paper presents stabilization and adaptive control of flexible single link robot manipulator system by self-recurrent neural networks that is one of the neural networks and is effective in nonlinear control. The architecture of neural networks is a modified model of self-recurrent structure which has a hidden layer. The self-recurrent neural networks can be used to approximate any continuous function to any desired degree of accuracy and the weights are updated by feedback-error learning algorithm. When a flexible manipulator is rotated by a motor through the fixed end, transverse vibration may occur. The motor toroque should be controlled in such a way that the motor rotates by a specified angle, while simultaneously stabilizing vibration of the flexible manipuators so that it is arresed as soon as possible at the end of rotation. Accurate vibration control of lightweight manipulator during the large changes in configuration common to robotic tasks requires dynamic models that describe both the rigid body motions, as well as the flexural vibrations. Therefore, a dynamic models for a flexible single link robot manipulator is derived, and then a comparative analysis was made with linear controller through an simulation and experiment. The results are proesented to illustrate thd advantages and imporved performance of the proposed adaptive control ove the conventional linear controller.

In this paper, we introduce a modeling and a process simulator developed with the aid of pRBFNNs for activated sludge process in the sewage treatment system. Activated sludge process(ASP) of sewage treatment system facilities is a process that handles biological treatment reaction and is a very complex system with non-linear characteristics. In this paper, we carry out modeling by using essential ASP factors such as water effluent quality, the manipulated value of various pumps, and water inflow quality, and so on. Intelligent algorithms used for constructing process simulator are developed by considering multi-output polynomial radial basis function Neural Networks(pRBFNNs) as well as Fuzzy C-Means clustering and Particle Swarm Optimization. Here, the apexes of the antecedent gaussian functions of fuzzy rules are decided by C-means clustering algorithm and the apexes of the consequent part of fuzzy rules are learned by using back-propagation based on gradient decent method. Also, the parameters related to the fuzzy model are optimized by means of particle swarm optimization. The coefficients of the consequent polynomial of fuzzy rules and performance index are considered by the Least Square Estimation and Mean Squared Error. The descriptions of developed process simulator architecture and ensuing operation method are handled.

This paper presents a hybrid data mining mechanism to extract expert knowledge from historical data and extend expert systems' reasoning capabilities by using fuzzy neural network (FNN)-based learning & rule extraction algorithm. Our hybrid data mining mechanism is based on association rule extraction mechanism, FNN learning and fuzzy rule extraction algorithm. Most of traditional data mining mechanisms are depended ()n association rule extraction algorithm. However, the basic association rule-based data mining systems has not the learning ability. Therefore, there is a problem to extend the knowledge base adaptively. In addition, sequential patterns of association rules can`t represent the complicate fuzzy logic in real-world. To resolve these problems, we suggest the hybrid data mining mechanism based on association rule-based data mining, FNN learning and fuzzy rule extraction algorithm. Our hybrid data mining mechanism is consisted of four phases. First, we use general association rule mining mechanism to develop an initial rule base. Then, in the second phase, we adopt the FNN learning algorithm to extract the hidden relationships or patterns embedded in the historical data. Third, after the learning of FNN, the fuzzy rule extraction algorithm will be used to extract the implicit knowledge from the FNN. Fourth, we will combine the association rules (initial rule base) and fuzzy rules. Implementation results show that the hybrid data mining mechanism can reflect both association rule-based knowledge extraction and FNN-based knowledge extension.

In order to develop reliable on-site partial discharge(PD) pattern recognition algorithm, the fuzzy neural network based on fuzzy set(FNN) and the polynomial network pattern classifier based on fuzzy Inference(PNC) were investigated and designed. Using PD data measured from laboratory defect models, these algorithms were learned and tested. Considering on-site situation where it is not easy to obtain voltage phases in PRPDA(Phase Resolved Partial Discharge Analysis), the measured PD data were artificially changed with shifted voltage phases for the test of the proposed algorithms. As input vectors of the algorithms, PRPD data themselves were adopted instead of using statistical parameters such as skewness and kurtotis, to improve uncertainty of statistical parameters, even though the number of input vectors were considerably increased. Also, results of the proposed neuro-fuzzy algorithms were compared with that of conventional BP-NN(Back Propagation Neural Networks) algorithm using the same data. The FNN and PNC algorithms proposed in this study were appeared to have better performance than BP-NN algorithm.

In this paper, we introduce a new category of Self-Organizing Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (SOFPNN) that is based on a genetically optimized multi-layer perceptron with fuzzy polynomial neurons (FPNs) and discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization. The conventional SOFPNN algorithm leads to a tendency to produce overly complex networks as well as a repetitive computation load by the trial and error method and/or the a repetitive parameter adjustment by designer. In order to generate a structurally and parametrically optimized network, such parameters need to be optimal. In this study, in solving the problems with the conventional SOFPNN, we introduce a new design approach of evolutionary optimized SOFPNN. Optimal parameters design available within FPN (viz. the no. of input variables, the order of the polynomial, input variables, and the no. of membership function) lead to structurally and parametrically optimized network which is more flexible as well as simpler architecture than the conventional SOFPNN. In addition, we determine the initial apexes of membership functions by genetic algorithm.

The present paper shows the possible development of particle swarm optimization (PSO) based fuzzy-neural networks (FNN) which can be employed as an important building block in real life robot systems, controlled by voice-based commands. The PSO is employed to train the FNNs which can accurately output the crisp control signals for the robot systems, based on fuzzy linguistic spoken language commands, issued by an user. The FNN is also trained to capture the user spoken directive in the context of the present performance of the robot system. Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based automatic speech recognizers are developed, as part of the entire system, so that the system can identify important user directives from the running utterances. The system is successfully employed in a real life situation for motion control of a redundant manipulator.

This paper presents an approach to classify normal and epilepsy from electroencephalogram(EEG) using a neural network with weighted fuzzy membership functions(NEWFM). To extract input features used in NEWFM, wavelet transform is used in the first step. In the second step, the frequency distribution of signal and the amount of changes in frequency distribution are used for extracting twenty-four numbers of input features from coefficients and approximations produced by wavelet transform in the previous step. NEWFM classifies normal and epilepsy using twenty four numbers of input features, and then the accuracy rate is 98%.

This paper presents an approach to classify normal and Ventricular Tachycardia/Ventricular Fibrillation(VT/VF) from the Creighton University Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia DataBase(CUDB) using the neural network with weighted fuzzy membership functions(NEWFM). In the first step, wavelet transform is used for producing input values which are used in the next step. In the second step, two numbers of input features are extracted by phase space reconstruction method and peak extraction method using coefficients produced by wavelet transform in the previous step. NEWFM classifies normal and VT/VF beats using two numbers of input features, and then the accuracy rate is 90.13%.
