The nonlinear plant with parameter uncertainty is represented by an interval type-2 fuzzy model, where the membership functions of the fuzzy rules are related to the system mode. Since sojourn information is challenging to obtain in practice, the sojourn time probability density function is considered to be incompletely available. The considered system is more general, not only relaxing the traditional assumption that all the sojourn time probability density functions are completely available, but also covering completely available sojourn time probability density functions as a special case. The main innovation is that an observer-based SMC scheme is designed, which makes the discrete nonlinear models have better dynamic performance, and realizes the reachability of discrete quasi-sliding mode. By the interval type-2 fuzzy and classical Lyapunov function, the mean-square stability criterion of the semi-Markov jump models is constructed employing additional matrix variables. Then, an observer-based SMC mechanism is constructed to achieve the reachability of the quasi-sliding mode. Ultimately, the proposed method is validated by a two-degree-freedom quarter-car suspension model.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1913-1925"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143507308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, reliably utilizing the minimal point-wise annotations for unlabeled data in complex and large-scale scenes is still challenging, such as only 20 points labeled in 2 million points. To tackle this challenge, we propose a new Uncertainty-aware Superpoint Graph Transformer (UaSGT) framework that utilizes minimal annotations for unlabeled data learning through reliable long-range supervision propagation from labeled superpoints to unlabeled superpoints. First, we propose a superpoint graph transformer to achieve long-range supervision propagation along the attention-based fuzzy subsets defined on superpoints. The attention-based fuzzy subset measures the membership of unlabeled superpoints to clusters centered on labeled superpoints. Second, we employ an uncertainty-aware membership rectification technique on the fuzzy subset to ensure reliable propagation among superpoints within the same category. This technique integrates an uncertainty prediction module to mask the influence of unreliable membership and a spatial prior refinement module to reduce uncertainty in intraclass membership degrees. Finally, experimental results on two large-scale benchmarks S3DIS and ScanNet-V2 demonstrate the superiority of our approach compared to the state-of-the-art with at least 90% annotation reduction, and our method also achieves comparable performance to fully supervised methods with less than 0.1% labeled points.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1899-1912"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143506994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, MPSTTs are prone to fuzziness owing to coordinate coupled and Gaussian truncation errors. To address these challenges, we propose a high-precision robust tracker that uses divide-and-conquer multiple-importance Kalman filtering (DCMIKF) via a fuzzy measure. Specifically, we designed coupling maneuver models and attached their model-truth probabilities as a fuzzy set. The measurements-to-target data association was then formulated as a fuzzy maxima searching problem with soft spatiotemporal causal constraints. The proposed approach enables the integration of all available information to derive the fuzzy measure, dividing the hybrid state estimation into variable-structure model estimation and model-conditioned filtering. Simultaneously, DCMIKF combines importance prediction with constrained convex measurement updating using KF and fuses the outputs via fuzzy model probability. Besides, it offers a purely mathematical approach for quantifying the average fuzziness yielded from the fuzzy set, thereby smoothing the mismatches between multilikelihoods, proposal distribution, and target posterior. Simulated and measured results conformed well; compared with the regression Gaussian process motion tracker, DCMIKF overcame the prior hypotheses in machine learning, reducing the problematic cubic complexity in the number of time steps to the linear time complexity; compared to the interacting multiple model minimax particle filter, DCMIKF significantly improves filtering accuracy and tracking robustness.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1864-1875"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143443473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alongside this, another underexplored problem is feature heterogeneity across multiple source domains. In this article, we propose a fuzzy domain adaptation method, fuzzy heterogeneous domain adaptation (FuzHDA), that learns fuzzy rules from heterogeneous teacher models, even when these models are black boxes. The proposed method first trains heterogeneous source models privately on individual devices without sharing any information, including neither data nor model parameters. Then, using a memory bank that stores all target predictions from the pretrained source models, we apply a self-knowledge distillation approach to train a target model, which simulates the predictions from these heterogeneous source teachers. After completing the target model, a cross-modality hybrid model leveraging prompt learning and uncovering causal factors is fine-tuned via self-supervision at the last step to facilitate transfer performance.

Moreover, multiscale data have received widespread attention due to its rich knowledge representation. However, current research on multiscale data primarily focuses on supervised learning environments, while semisupervised feature selection for multiscale data with limited labels remains inadequately explored. Meanwhile, existing studies on multiscale data often emphasize selecting optimal scales and further conducting feature selection, but this strategy may result in losing potentially valuable information from other scales. To overcome these limitations, by adopting a multiscale fuzzy information fusion mechanism, this article proposes two new semisupervised feature selection approaches for multiscale data with limited labels from both global and local perspectives. Initially, by fusing fuzzy information at various scales, a label learning method is proposed to convert the decision of missing labels into a fuzzy decision of label distribution. Subsequently, label-distributed multiscale fuzzy global and local rough sets are constructed from global and local perspectives, respectively. Based on the two models, two semisupervised feature selection algorithms are developed based on global and local multiscale fuzzy information fusion. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to other advanced feature selection algorithms, the two proposed algorithms can effectively handle multiscale data with limited labels and exhibit superior classification performance, computational efficiency, and robustness.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"1825-1839"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
