The size of discrete delay and distributed delay is assumed to be not always the same. The zero-order control input can be represented as a delayed input. Then, the closed-loop system with such an input becomes a system with time-varying delay. Sufficient conditions for the closed-loop system to be stable with satisfying a prescribed H∞ performance index are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on such conditions, we propose a robust H∞ sampled-data control design for an uncertain fuzzy system with discrete and distributed delays. Finally, we extend the result to a robust H∞ sampled-data control design for uncertain fuzzy systems with discrete and distributed delays.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131350935","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}

We propose a new model to retrieve information from free text and transform it into a quantitative output. For this purpose, we first identify all adjectives in an ECB statement by using the Stanford Part-of-Speech Tagger and feed these to the General Inquirer (GI) content analysis tool. From GI we obtain a matrix that provides for each document and for each content category the percentage of words in the document that fall under each category. After normalizing the data, we develop a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model using fuzzy c-means clustering. The TS fuzzy system is used to model the levels of the MSCI EURO index. To determine the performance of the model, we focus on the accuracy of predicting upward or downward movement in the index, and obtain, on average, an accuracy of 66%, that corresponds to an improvement of 16% over a random classifier.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125923741","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 FuzCoC has been recently proposed as an effective criterion for feature selection. Simulation results in a large number of benchmark problems revealed the capability of this method in selecting small subsets of powerful and complementary features even in high dimensional feature sets. In this paper, the FuzCoC method is used not only to reduce the dimensions of the original feature space, but also to identify complementary generic fuzzy neuron classifiers (FNCs) arranged in layers. The chosen generic classifiers are then combined using a decision fusion operator to construct a descendant FNC at the next layer with enhanced classification capabilities. The proposed structure learning algorithm is a modified version of the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) algorithm which incorporates the FuzCoC method simultaneous as a pre-feature selection method and as a method to identify complementary generic classifiers to be combined in the next layer. Simulation results demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed method in building accurate neuro-fuzzy classifiers with reduced computational demands.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115271828","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}

To overcome the constraint on the knowledge of the system model, local models related to some operating points were used to synthesize a type-2 nominal fuzzy global model. For sliding modes, two adaptive fuzzy type-2 systems have been introduced to generate the two super twisting signals to avoid both the chattering and the constraint on the knowledge of upper bounds disturbances and uncertainties. These adaptive fuzzy type-2 systems are adjusted on-line by two adaptation laws deduced from the stability analysis in Lyapunov sense. Many simulation results for a robot arm actuated by a DC motor are given to illustrate the good tracking performances and the smooth signal control obtained by the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115378668","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}

Using this kind of antecedents, the number of rules grows exponentially in terms of the number of attributes of the system. This paper presents a new algorithm, FuzzyCN2, for extracting conjunctive fuzzy classification rules. This algorithm is a fuzzy version of the well known CN2 algorithm and produces an ordered list of fuzzy rules. FuzzyCN2 generates antecedents that may not include all the attributes of the system. These antecedents may cover a wide number of instances and, so, the number of extracted rules is smaller. The algorithm introduces the use of linguistic hedges as part of the selectors, thus producing more compact rules and reducing the number of generated rules.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124956153","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}

Inner dependence method AHP is one technique for the case in which criteria do not have enough independency. However using original AHP or inner dependence method, the data and results often lose their reliability because the comparison matrix does not always have sufficient consistency. In these cases, fuzzy representation for weighting criteria using results from a sensitivity analysis is useful. In this paper, we first present weights of criteria of normal AHP by means of fuzzy sets, then modified fuzzy weights can be calculated. We can also have overall weights of alternatives by employing some assumptions. The results show how inner dependence AHP has fuzziness when the comparison matrix is not sufficiently consistent and each criterion has not enough independency.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115253766","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}
