Many existing studies that use machine learning for this problem assume that the analyst has access to the actual appliances states at every sample instant, whereas in fact collecting this information exposes consumers to severe privacy risks. It may, however, be possible to persuade consumers to provide brief samples of the operation of their home appliances as part of a “registration” process for smart metering (if appropriate financial incentives are offered). This labeled data would then be supplemented by a large volume of unlabeled data. Hence, we propose the use of semi-supervised learning for non-intrusive appliance load monitoring. Furthermore, based on our previous work, we model the simultaneous operation of multiple appliances via multi-label classification. Thus, our proposed approach employs semi-supervised multi-label classifiers for the monitoring task. Experiments on publicly-available dataset demonstrate our proposed method.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127657227","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, most clustering methods suffer from limited segmentation accuracy without considering spatial information or bounded support region for practical data. In this paper, a bounded spatial probability based fuzzy clustering algorithm is proposed for image segmentation. A bounded distribution to fit the bounded data is utilized and a new conditional probability is constructed based on the immediate neighboring probabilities. Then a parameter-free mean template is presented to impose the spatial information more precisely. Finally, the negative logarithmical conditional probability is utilized as the dissimilarity function to describe the observed data. We evaluated our algorithm against several state-of-the-art segmentation approaches on brain magnetic resonance images. Our results suggest that the proposed algorithm is more robust to noise and textures, and can produce more accurate segmentation results.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"62 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133865131","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}

Two Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) TSF controllers are suggested for azimuth position control, and they are build around linear PID controller structures. A PI and a PID TSF controller are suggested for pitch position control by fuzzifying the linear PI and PID controller structures. The validation of the new TFS controllers is carried out on nonlinear TRAS laboratory equipment. The performance of the SISO control systems with the new TFS controllers is compared with two linear controllers tuned by a metaheuristic Gravitational Search Algorithm optimizer.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134087253","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}

In particular we focus on a novel type-2 fuzzy membership function, — “Elliptic membership function”. After briefly explaining the motivation behind the suggestion of the elliptic membership function, we analyse the uncertainty distribution along its support, and we compare its uncertainty modeling capability with the existing membership functions. We also show how the elliptic membership functions perform in fuzzy arithmetic. In addition to its extra advantages over the existing type-2 fuzzy membership functions such as having decoupled parameters for its support and width, this novel membership function has some similar features to the Gaussian and triangular membership functions in addition and multiplication operations. Finally, we have tested the prediction capability of elliptic membership functions using interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems on US Dollar/Euro exchange rate prediction problem. Throughout the simulation studies, an extreme learning machine is used to train the interval type-2 fuzzy logic system. The prediction results show that, in addition to their various advantages mentioned above, elliptic membership functions have comparable prediction results when compared to Gaussian and triangular membership functions.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114418891","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}

Furthermore, a q-multinomial distribution was formulated, which acts as the Tsallis statistical counter for multinomial distributions in standard statistics. The proposed algorithm is constructed by fuzzifying a q-multinomial mixture model, by means of regularizing q-divergence appearing in a pseudo likelihood of the model.

The game scenario is constructed as the evader droid BB8 is controlled by a human user while the pursuer droid Sphero 2.0 is navigated through the game environment via the proposed T2 fuzzy pursuing system. The proposed T2 fuzzy pursuing system structure is composed of vision based localization, the error signal generator, T2 fuzzy strategy planner and the control system. The T2 fuzzy strategy planner is the key structure of the pursuing system since it generates the reference trajectories to be followed by the pursuer droid Sphero 2.0. In this paper, we have transformed design guidelines presented for T2 fuzzy logic controllers into two pursuing strategies for the first time in literature. The performances of the proposed T2 fuzzy strategies have been examined by providing comparative experimental results performed in the real-world game environment against a human user. We believe that this pioneer application of the T2 fuzzy logic in pursuit-evasion games will be an important step for a wider deployment in the research area of real world games.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133158662","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}

Its main characteristic is the interoperability, a design feature that enables system designers to develop fuzzy inference engines without taking into account the hardware/software constraints imposed by the specific architecture on which the system will be deployed. Thanks to this feature, a fuzzy system can be integrated into different types of architectures without any need to carry out porting strategies. This feature is particularly crucial in the area of embedded systems where, for each kind of device, a variety of applications, communication protocols, software libraries and programming tools, exists. In this context, ArduinoTM technology represents one of the most popular architectures, thanks to its ease of development and prototyping. This paper shows how the native extendability feature of IEEE Std 1855 enables the design of a fuzzy rule-based systems in fully interoperable fashion on ArduinoTM architectures and, as a consequence, allows designers to focus on fuzzy concepts, without any need to consider the hardware/software details related to the specific ArduinoTM system.","PeriodicalId":408343,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130043822","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}
