In this paper, fuzzy system modeling using new hierarchical structure is suggested for the complex and uncertain system. The proposed modeling technique Is to decompose the fuzzy rule base structure into the above-rule base and the sub-rule base. By applying hierarchical fuzzy rules, they can be used efficiently and logically. Also, hieratical fuzzy rules can improve the accuracy and the transparency of structure in the fuzzy system. The genetic algorithm is applied for optimization of the parameters and the structure of the fuzzy rules. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, fuzzy modeling of the complex nonlinear system is provided.

Rule-based knowledge representHtion is, the most popular technique for ,storage and manipulation of domain knowledge in expert system. By the way, the amount of knowledge increases more and more in this representatiun technique, it, relationship becomes complex, and even its contents can be modified. This is the reason why rule-based knowledge representation technique requires a verification ,system which can maintain consistency and completeness of knowledge base. This paper is to propose a verification system for consistency and completeness of knowledge base to promote the efficiency and reliability of expert system. After verifying the potential errors both in structure and in semantics whenever a new rule is added, this system renders knowledge base consistent and complete by correcting them automatically or by making expert correct them if it fails.

Knowledge discovery in databases(KDD) is the process for extracting valid, novel, potentially useful and understandable knowledge form real data. There are many academic and industrial activities with new technologies and application areas. Particularly, data mining is the core step in the KDD process, consisting of many algorithms to perform clustering, pattern recognition and rule induction functions. The main goal of these algorithms is prediction and description. Prediction means the assessment of unknown variables. Description is concerned with providing understandable results in a compatible format to human users. We introduce an efficient data mining algorithm considering predictive and descriptive capability. Reasonable pattern is derived from real world data by a revised neural network model and a proposed fuzzy rule extraction technique is applied to obtain understandable knowledge. The proposed neural network model is a hierarchical self-organizing system. The rule base is compatible to decision makers perception because the generated fuzzy rule set reflects the human information process. Results from real world application are analyzed to evaluate the system\`s performance.

Korea electricity market consists of two payment systems, capacity and energy. Capacity payments are given to the generators according to its hourly availability considering hourly and seasonal weighting factors. Energy payments are settled at the marginal generation cost based on generator variable cost. In 2007, base load energy market is closed and single capacity payment system is begun to apply in electricity market. In this revised market rule, energy price cap for base load generators is newly introduced. We analyze impact of market rule revision in 2007 on base load generators and suggest improvement scheme to enforce market system in this study.

In this study, we discuss the design of the expert system for the scheduling of the FMC(Flexible Manufacturing Cell) consisting of the several versatile machines. Due to the NP property, the scheduling problem of several machine FMC is very complex task. Thus we proposed the two heuritstic shceduling algorithms for solving the problem and constituted the algorithm based of solving the problem and constituted the algorithm base of ISS(Intelligent Scheduling System) using them. By the rules in the rule base, the best alternative among various algorithms in algorithm base is selected and applied in controlling the FMC. To show the efficiency of ISS, the scheduling output of ISS and the existent dynamic dispatching rule were tested and compared. The results indicate that the ISS is superior to the existent dynamic dispatching rules in various performance indexes.

In this paper, a framework for implementing UFIS (Unified Fuzzy rule-based knowledge Inference System) is presented. First, fuzzy clustering and fuzzy rules deal with the presence of the knowledge in DB (DataBase) and its value is presented with a value between 0 and 1. Second, RDB (Relational DB) and SQL queries provide more flexible functionality fur knowledge management than the conventional non-fuzzy knowledge management systems. Therefore, the obtained fuzzy rules offer the user additional information to be added to the query with the purpose of guiding the search and improving the retrieval in knowledge base and/ or rule base. The framework can be used as DM (Data Mining) and ES (Expert Systems) development and easily integrated with conventional KMS (Knowledge Management Systems) and ES.

The purpose of this study was to estimates water supply reliability indices of the water supply by Allocation Rules(AR) for parallel reservoirs. Rule (A) can be considered it as only current storage, Rule(B) can be considered it as current storage and inflow and Rule(C) can be considered it as current storage, inflow and water supply capacity. First, conditions of water supply are divided by Condition I for the monthly constant water supply and Condition II for the monthly varied water supply. Second, results of allocation coefficients are revealed the smallest different at Rule(C). The analysis of water supply showed that the capability of water supply is superior to the Rule(B), it is superior to the Rule(C) on the base of the balance of water supply. The reliability analysis was highly showed at the Rule(B) and Rule(C). A methodology for the analysis of water supply was developed and applied to the parallel reservoir system from this research, The operation rule for the parallel reservoir can be slightly modified and successfully applied to the different kinds of the parallel reservoir system.

A fuzzy logic controller with rule modification capability is proposed to overcome the difficulty of obtaining control rules from the human operators. This new SOC algorithm modifies control rules by a fuzzy inference machine utilizing data base. Computer simulation results show good performances on both a linear system and a nonlinear system.

A knowledge-based system with fuzzy production rules is a representation of static knowledge of an expert. On the other hand, a real system such as the stock market is dynamic in nature. Therefore we need a strategy to reflect the dynamic nature of real system when we make inferences with a knowledge-based system. This paper proposes a strategy of dynamic inferencing for a knowledge-based system with fuzzy production rules. The strategy suggested in this paper applies weights of attributes of conditions of a rule in the knowledge-base. A degree of match(DM) between actual input information and a condition of a rule is represented by a value [0,1]. Weights of relative importance of attributes in a rule are obtained by AHP(Analytic Hierarcy Process) method. Then these weights are applied as exponents for the DM, and the DMs in a rule are combined, with MIN operator, into a single DM for the rule. In this way, overall DM for a rule changes depending on the importance of attributes of the rule. As a result, the dynamic nature of a real system can be incorporated in an inference with fuzzy production rules.

With the growth of internet shopping malls, there is increasing interest in comparison shopping mall. However most comparison sites compare only book prices by collecting simple XML data and do not provide .the exact comparison Including precise shipping costs. Shipping costs vary depending on each customer's address, the delivery method, and the category of selected goods, so rule based system is required in order to calculate exact shipping costs. Therefore, we designed and implemented comparison shopping mall which compares not only book prices but also shipping costs using rule based inference. By adopting the extensible Rule Markup language (XRML) approach, we proposed the methodology of extracting delivery rules from Web pages of each shopping mall. The XRML approach can facilitate nearly automatic rule extraction from Web pages and consistency maintenance between Web pages and rule base. We developed a ConsiderD system which applies our rule acquisition methodology based on XRML. The objective of the ConsiderD system is to compare the exact total cost of books including the delivery cost over Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and Powells.com. With this prototype, we conducted an experiment to show the potential of automatic rule acquisition from Web pages and illustrate the effect of delivery cost.
