The neural expert system can perform generalization of the information derived from training data with fuzzy teaching input and embodiment of knowledge in the form of a fuzzy neural network, where the fuzzy teaching input is subjectively given by domain experts: and extraction of fuzzy IF-THEN rules with linguistic relative importance of each proposition in an antecedent (IF-part) from a trained neural network. A method is proposed to extract automatically fuzzy IF-THEN rules from the trained neural network generated by training data with fuzzy teaching input.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":222263,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"661 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133130357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Appropriate constraints defining the relations are extracted. A suitable fuzzy membership function is assigned to each constraint. Then the constraints are combined by fuzzy set operations to describe meaningful relations. According to these meaningful relations, a perceptual grouping is executed. Grouping methods are described on the basis of collinear and coelliptic relations. A measure of the significance of grouping for high-level vision processing is discussed. A prototype system for perceptual grouping from image data was implemented using a frame-based knowledge representation scheme, and experimental results for real image data are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":222263,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133809510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tanaka and M. Sugeno (1990). However, it is difficult to find the common positive definite matrix P which is introduced in the theorem, and satisfies, for example, two Lyapunov inequalities A/sub 1//sup T/PA/sub 1/-P<0 and A/sub 2//sup T/PA/sub 2/-P<0. The authors present a new simple approach for finding the whole region where a 2*2 real matrix P exists. As an example, two spring-mass physical systems with damping are treated, and the region of P is obtained. Also, three examples considered by Tanaka and Sugeno are discussed. It is emphasized that illustrating the P-region calculated by the approach aids the design of a fuzzy controller.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":222263,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133919574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three parameters indicating the mean value and the left/right spreads of the fuzzy number are considered. Various parameter formulas for arithmetic operations and power function operation of certain kinds of weakly noninteractive fuzzy numbers involving no-interactive fuzzy numbers are presented. The formulas are applicable to both cases of the L-R fuzzy number of Dubois and Prade (1978) and an improved version of the calculation method using the digital representation.
