Third, the IGA-based system is compared with a random search-based system using the psychological space and a subjective test. The two sign tests and a statistical test have shown that the IGA-based system is significantly quicker in image retrieval than a random search-based image retrieval system.","PeriodicalId":344788,"journal":{"name":"FUZZ-IEEE'99. 1999 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems.

Next, we show how the recall procedure minimizes errors among the orthogonal basis functions in the hidden layer. As a 2D image corrupted by noise is applied to an N-Cube, the nearest one of the originally stored training images would be retrieved in the recall phase. Simulation results confirm the efficiency and the noise-free properties of N-Cubes.","PeriodicalId":344788,"journal":{"name":"FUZZ-IEEE'99. 1999 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems.

When it is hard to obtain consistent rule bases, we propose a fuzzy logic control based on weighted rules depending on output performances using a neural network and we derive a weight updating algorithm. To guarantee convergence of the weights, a learning rate is developed by introducing a Lyapunov function. With the final weight change information, we can make better decisions by taking into consideration conflicting rules. The proposed method is applied to simple problems and simulation results are included.

The proposed recognition system has a three layered architecture: at the high level, a fuzzy system is designed based on human linguistic expressions; at the mid level, a fuzzy observer is proposed to indirectly estimate the linguistic variables using available image features; while at the low level, image features are extracted to characterize the facial features. A multilayered neural network is employed to develop parameter adjustment of the fuzzy observer based on available crisp input-fuzzy output sample sets. Spectral features using the slice DFT are adopted as image features that characterize facial wrinkles of the nasolabial folds. Experimental results performed on a real image sequence are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":344788,"journal":{"name":"FUZZ-IEEE'99. 1999 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems.

Based on the ability of fuzzy systems to approximate any nonlinear mapping, the unknown nonlinear system is represented by a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model which is identified using input-output data. The control problem is then solved using a standard technique. Two different approaches are considered in this paper. The first one is a version of input-output linearization of discrete-time nonlinear systems. The advantage of this technique is the possibility to attenuate the influence of unstructured uncertainties on the control performances by introducing an additive control component. The second developed strategy is internal model control which is based on the introduction of an explicit fuzzy model of the plant in the control structure. Perfect control is obtained when the controller is chosen as the inverse of the fuzzy model. Finally, simulation results are included to demonstrate the feasibility of both proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":344788,"journal":{"name":"FUZZ-IEEE'99. 1999 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems.

Currently, the DY adjustment process is done manually by attaching ferrite sheets on the inside surface of the DY. In this paper, we deal with the convergence adjustment algorithms employed in the guidance system. An inference engine that is based on soft computing techniques is proposed to systematically deal with several resources including the expert's knowledge in the convergence adjustment process of the DY. In our approach, the rough set theory is used to handle the input/output data collections of the DY adjustment, and the fuzzy logic and evolutionary programming are used to model the plant and to tune the model. With the given initial convergence, a rough set driven coarse search part finds a coarse area and then more precise positions are searched and decided in the fuzzy inference engine driven fine search part. Initial experimental results show that the proposed algorithm works well in the real convergence adjustment process of the DY.","PeriodicalId":344788,"journal":{"name":"FUZZ-IEEE'99. 1999 IEEE International Fuzzy Systems.
