In this study, we propose a genetic learning algorithm of fuzzy relational rules, that is, fuzzy rules that include fuzzy relations. Fuzzy relational rules allow us to obtain fuzzy models with a good interpretability-accuracy trade-off. Since, the inclusion of relations increases the accuracy keeping the interpretability but increasing the number of features to be considered in the learning process. We also present a model to reduce the additional complexity that occurs when using this new type of rules. Finally, we also present an experimental study that demonstrated the advantage of the use of relational fuzzy rules.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"64 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":"116102932","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 optimized KPCA is applied to feature extraction of gearbox typical faults. The results indicate that KPCA after parameter optimized can effectively reduce the dimensions of feature vector of gearbox, and it has a better fault classification performance than linear principal component analysis (PCA).

Dubois and Prade's, nevertheless, develop an approach that is compatible with the Aristotelian framework. Although none of the revised proposals are genuinely fuzzy, the latter can be considered as an starting point to build an extension of the Aristotelian system to the fuzzy field.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"138 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":"122054174","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 relax this problem, the SVM was extended into a fuzzy SVM (FSVM) by the introduction of fuzzy memberships. The FSVM also has been further extended in two ways, by adopting a different objective function with the help of domain-specific knowledge, or by employing a different membership calculation method. In this paper we follow the second approach by proposing a new membership calculation method using a fuzzy k nearest neighbor classifier (F-KNN). Although there are already several membership calculation methods to enhance the performance of the FSVM, one problem in those methods is that they assume a specific data distribution. The F-KNN does not assume any data distribution, which helps the proposed method to accommodate various data distributions in real world problems. The proposed algorithm was applied to an insect footprint classification problem, and results verify the effectiveness of the method.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"31 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":"128713606","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}

However, user behaviour in a search engine is complicated and affected by various factors, e.g. query length, intention/context/time when queries are submitted, etc. It is interesting to find answers to questions such as “whether loyal users are more likely to issue short length queries or medium length queries? If so, is that behaviour linked with high click through rate or is it linked with the user's previous search experience?” In this paper we argue that user behaviour should be better analysed from a subjective angle and introduce a granular analysis algorithm to intelligently extract user behaviour knowledge in a human-centric way to answer above questions. We study six variables relating to user behaviour study and demonstrate how fuzzy association rules mining based on mass assignment theory can intelligently analyse user activity patterns in a large scale Web search log data set.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"18 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":"129136150","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}

Nonetheless, the development of AmI-based systems requires the creation of increasingly complex and flexible applications. In this regard, the use of context-aware technologies is an essential aspect in these developments to perceive stimuli from the context and react upon it autonomously. This work presents a novel platform that defines a method for integrating dynamic and self-adaptable heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This approach facilitates the inclusion of context-aware capabilities when developing intelligent ubiquitous systems, where functionalities can communicate in a distributed way. Furthermore, the information obtained must be managed by intelligent and self-adaptable technologies to provide an adequate interaction between the users and their environment. Agents and Multi-Agent Systems are one of these technologies. The agents have characteristics such as autonomy, reasoning, reactivity, social abilities and pro-activity which make them appropriate for developing dynamic and distributed systems based on AmI. This way, the integration of the platform with a Service-Oriented Multi-Agent architecture is proposed. Finally, conclusions and future work are presented.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"51 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":"129144501","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 concept of tolerance has been proposed from the viewpoint of handling such uncertain data. In this paper, we introduce clustering algorithms for data with tolerance. Moreover, we propose new five measures for data with tolerance, that is, the determinants and the traces of fuzzy covariance matrices, the Xie-Beni's index, the Fukuyama-Sugeno's index, and the Davies-Bouldin's index. We compare the performance of conventional ones with their tolerance versions. We found that our proposed measures takes smaller value than conventional ones.
