The filter is a pipelined Takagi-Sugeno-Kang recurrent fuzzy network, consisting of a number of modules interconnected in a cascaded form. The participating modules are implemented through recurrent fuzzy neural networks with internal dynamics. The structure of the modules is evolved sequentially from input-output data. Extensive experimental results, regarding the lung sound category of crackles, are given, and a performance comparison with a series of other fuzzy and neural filters is conducted, underlining the separation capabilities of the proposed filter.","PeriodicalId":236515,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems Conference","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114057056","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}

The controller described, which follows a reactive technique, generates trajectories of near-minimal lengths when no obstacles are detected and, in presence of obstacles, generates minimum deviations from them. All these reference paths meet the kinematic constraints of car-like robots and take into account dynamic issues. Besides its efficiency, the proposed controller is very simple and linguistically interpretable. The whole controller has been designed and verified by using the CAD tools of the Xfuzzy environment.","PeriodicalId":236515,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems Conference","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128678368","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}

The parameters of the zero dynamic subsystem are optimized by a genetic algorithm so that the zero dynamics subsystem is asymptotically stable at equilibrium point and finally the whole original flexible manipulator system is guaranteed to be asymptotically stable.

First, an evolutionary three-objective optimization algorithm is applied to generate an approximation of a Pareto front composed of fuzzy rule-based binary classifiers with different trade-offs between accuracy and complexity. Accuracy is measured in terms of sensitivity and specificity, whereas complexity is computed as sum of the conditions which compose the antecedents of the rules included in the classifiers. Thus, low values of complexity correspond to fuzzy systems characterized by a low number of rules and a low number of input variables actually used in each rule. This ensures a high comprehensibility of the classifiers. Then, the most suitable classifier is selected by using the ROC convex hull method. We discuss the application of the proposed approach to generate a classifier for discriminating lung nodules from non-nodules in a computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system. Results obtained on a real data set extracted from lung CT images are also discussed","PeriodicalId":236515,"journal":{"name":"2007 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems Conference","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123881515","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}

This paper shows that several FAM models, including the FAMs of Kosko, most generalized FAMs of Chung and Lee, the FAM of Junbo et al., the max-min FAM with threshold, the fuzzy logic bidirectional associative memories, and the implicative fuzzy associative memories, belong to the FMAM class. Moreover, we present two strategies for deriving a new FMAM model from a given FMAM.

The time-delay is assumed to be either known constant or unknown time varying. The parameter uncertainties that come into the system are time varying and describe identification error between a real system and its mathematical model. Our approach employs a Lyapunov functional combined with the parameterized model transformation method and the generalized free weighting matrix method. This generalization leads to a generalized robust H∞ filtering condition that is given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Moreover, based on such a condition, robust H∞ filtering methods for uncertain fuzzy systems with time-delays are given.
