Precise delineation of the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV) plays a pivotal role in ensuring effective radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer. Although recent methods have achieved promising results in GTV segmentation, it remains challenging to generalize from one domain to another, especially when the target domain is a different modality with severe domain shifts. To address this challenge, we propose a novel active domain adaptation framework to enhance domain adaptation for GTV segmentation. Specifically, we refer to the latent feature space of the synthesized target domain to select domain-specific representative samples from a specific target domain for annotation and model fine-tuning. To suppress noise and enhance the edge information, we decouple the network into an additional edge regression task that is used to further mine the contextual information of the edge pixels. Experiments on our self-collected pancreas tumor dataset and a public dataset show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art methods by a significant margin, achieving an average Dice score improvement of 2.16% and 1.86% in the two target domains on the pancreas tumor dataset, respectively.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 6","pages":"2016-2026"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143805573","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}

This article develops a noncooperative behavior management framework based on trust propagation and dynamic cooperation index under bidirectional feedback context. On the one hand, a trust propagation operator with trust decay is established to enhance the trust relationship between noncooperative experts. On the other hand, the fuzzy preference relations are utilized as preference expression structure, and the mutual reinforcing effect between consensus and trust is explored to achieve the dynamic enhancement of cooperation index, thereby facilitating the transformation of nonscooperative behavior. Specifically, a cooperation index is formulated to identify the noncooperation behavior. Subsequently, a noncooperative behavior transformation method by dynamic cooperation index is investigated. Finally, a bidirectional feedback mechanism is provided for group consensus reaching.

Multiview data typically contain information arising from different views or sensors, offering more perspectives for observation. The multiview nature also brings challenges, such as high dimensionality, noise, heterogeneity, and redundancy. Particularly, in scenarios with limited labeled data, traditional single-view learning methods often struggle to handle these complex issues. To address this, this article proposes an unsupervised multiview learning framework that integrates Takagi–Sugeno–Kang fuzzy systems and graph-based adaptive regularization (MvTSK-GAR) to handle the heterogeneity and redundancy in multiview data effectively. Specifically, this article first captures the uncertainty in multiview data through fuzzy rules and models the structural relationships between the data using graph-based adaptive regularization. The framework does not rely on a large amount of labeled data. Instead, it integrates complementary information coming from different views to automatically mine latent patterns, thus generating more accurate and stable data representations. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework performs well in various real-world applications, particularly excelling in high-dimensional data processing and noise reduction. Good performance in multiple publicly available datasets validates the effectiveness of our approach.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 7","pages":"2226-2237"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143775531","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}

In place of the methods of sliding-mode control, variable structure control, and robust integral of the sign of the error control, an output-feedback fuzzy prescribed performance control approach is put forward. It consists of a fuzzy state observer, a proportional-integral (PI) constraint-handling scheme, and an adaptive fuzzy backstepping PI control unit. The developed approach achieves output tracking with the predefined settling time and accuracy. Moreover, it actively restrains the oscillations of both the tracking error and the intermediate errors. On the other hand, the compact set condition for fuzzy approximation is rigorously warranted. Besides, the chattering phenomenon and the requirement for differentiable disturbances by the existing methods are excluded. A pair of comparative simulations is performed to demonstrate the efficacy and advantage of our approach.","PeriodicalId":13212,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"33 7","pages":"2215-2225"},"PeriodicalIF":10.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143775561","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}
