Two rough set-based methods for feature selection are analyzed, the first is a greedy approach while the second relies on genetic algorithms to find minimal subsets of attributes. Also, to further reduce the haptic feature space while maximizing user identification accuracy, a method is proposed where feature vectors are subsampled prior to the feature selection procedure. Rough setgenerated minimal subsets are initially exploited to determine the importance of different haptic data types (e.g. force, position, torque and orientation) in discriminating between different users. In addition, a comparison between rough set-based methods and classical machine learning techniques in the selection of minimal information-preserving subsets of features in high dimensional haptic datasets, is provided. The criteria for comparison are the length of the selected subsets of features and their corresponding discrimination power. Support Vector Machine classifiers are used to evaluate the accuracy of the selected minimal feature vectors. The results demonstrated that the combination of rough set and genetic algorithm techniques can outperform well-established machine learning methods in the selection of minimal subsets of features present in haptic-based handwritten signatures.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"254 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":"114562870","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}

By employing computational intelligence (CI) techniques, this data repository can be used to address important health care issues such as improving quality and reducing medical errors. In this paper, we introduce a general word sequence alignment method based on a fuzzy version of the Smith-Waterman (SW) dynamic programming algorithm. The word similarity matrix used in computing the sequence alignment is calculated based on a domain ontology (taxonomy). The fuzzy version of the SW algorithm is designed to accommodate words not present in the initial dictionary used to precompute the similarity matrix, hence avoiding its recalculation. We apply the developed algorithm for patient retrieval in an EMR. Each patient is described by an ordered sequence of ICD9 diagnoses. We analyze various properties of the proposed algorithm on a patient dataset that contains 107 patients described by ICD9 diagnose sequences.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"141 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":"116181429","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 regional analysis of the results obtained at previous work allows extracting some features with differentiation capability between small multiple sclerosis lesions and false detections. These features are introduced as restrictions for obtaining a new and improved fuzzy membership function associated with the presence of hyperintensity in these images. Results show an important reduction of the number of false detections preserving the small multiple sclerosis lesions previously detected.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"2015 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":"127708370","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}

Then by the monotone fuzzy rule base we mean a rule base consisting of such fuzzy rules expressing the monotone dependence of consequent fuzzy sets on antecedent fuzzy sets. In other words the “bigger” antecedent fuzzy is present in a fuzzy rule the “bigger” consequent fuzzy set appears on the right hand side of the same fuzzy rule. Very often real-world applications require some defuzzification to be employed at the end of the inference process. The problem is that after the defuzzification we obtain a crisp input-output function which is not necessarily monotone anymore. Obviously, such behavior is not only counterintuitive but also dangerous. Most of the attention has been paid to the Mamdani-Assilian conjunctive kind of models of fuzzy rule bases built with help of particular t-norms. This paper focuses on the implicative approach for arbitrary residual implication.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"46 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":"125742320","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 in turn requires that the system running states be predicted correctly. This paper makes a full analysis of the rolling cart states by applying observer-based adaptive wavelet neural network (OBAWNN) tracking sliding mode control scheme with system uncertainties, multiple time-delayed state uncertainties, and external disturbances. Based on a recurrent adaptive wavelet neural network model for approximating the dynamics of the rolling cart, an observer-based adaptive control scheme is developed to override the nonlinearities, time delays, and external disturbances such that the uniform ultimate boundedness of all signals in the closed loop and the H∞ tracking performance are achieved. The advantage of employing adaptive wavelet neural dynamics is that we can utilize the neuron information by activation functions to on-line tune the parameters of dilation and translation of wavelet basis functions and hidden-to-output weights, and the adaptation parameters to estimate the model uncertainties directly for using linear analytical results instead of estimating nonlinear system functions. Based on Lyapunov criterion and Riccati-inequality, some sufficient conditions are derived so that all states of the system are uniformly ultimately bounded and the effect of the external disturbance on the tracking error can be attenuated to any prescribed level and consequently an H∞ tracking control is achieved. Finally, a numerical example of a rolling cart is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.","PeriodicalId":377799,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":"41 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":"121702412","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}
