In this paper, a new adaptive fuzzy inference method using neural network based fuzzy reasoning is proposed to make a fuzzy logic control system more adaptive and more effective. In most cases, the design of a fuzzy inference system rely on the method in which an expert or a skilled human operator would operate in that special domain. However, if he has not expert knowledge for any nonlinear environment, it is difficult to control in order to optimize. Thus, using the proposed adaptive structure for the fuzzy reasoning system can controled more adaptive and more effective in nonlinear environment for changing input membership functions and output membership functions. The proposed fuzzy inference algorithm is called adaptive neuro-fuzzy control(ANFC). ANFC can adapt a proper membership function for nonlinear plant, based upon a minimum number of rules and an initial approximate membership function. Nonlinear function approximation and rotary inverted pendulum control system ar employed to demonstrate the viability of the proposed ANFC.

Conventional expert systems has been criticized due to its lack of capability to adapt to the changing decision-making environments. In literature, many methods have been proposed to make expert systems more environment-adaptive by incorporating fuzzy logic and neural networks. The objective of this paper is to propose a new approach to building a self-evolving expert system inference mechanism by integrating fuzzy neural network and fuzzy rule extraction technique. The main recipe of our proposed approach is to fuzzify the training data, train them by a fuzzy neural network, extract a set of fuzzy rules from the trained network, organize a knowledge base, and refine the fuzzy rules by applying a pruning algorithm when the decision-making environments are detected to be changed significantly. To prove the validity, we tested our proposed self-evolving expert systems inference mechanism by using the bankruptcy data, and compared its results with the conventional neural network. Non-parametric statistical analysis of the experimental results showed that our proposed approach is valid significantly.

Control algorithms are the most important aspects in successful control of structures against earthquakes. In recent years, intelligent control methods rather than classical control methods have been more considered by researchers, due to some specific capabilities such as handling nonlinear and complex systems, adaptability, and robustness to errors and uncertainties. However, due to lack of learning ability of fuzzy controller, it is used in combination with a genetic algorithm, which in turn suffers from some problems like premature convergence around an incorrect target. Therefore in this research, the introduction and design of the Fuzzy Cooperative Coevolution (Fuzzy CoCo) controller and Adaptive Neural-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) have been innovatively presented for semi-active seismic control. In this research, in order to improve the seismic behavior of structures, a semi-active control of building using Magneto Rheological (MR) damper is proposed to determine input voltage of Magneto Rheological (MR) dampers using ANFIS and Fuzzy CoCo. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the performance of controllers. In this paper, the design of controllers is based on the reduction of the Park-Ang damage index. In order to assess the effectiveness of the designed control system, its function is numerically studied on a 9-story benchmark building, and is compared to those of a Wavelet Neural Network (WNN), fuzzy logic controller optimized by genetic algorithm (GAFLC), Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) and Clipped Optimal Control (COC) systems in terms of seismic performance. The results showed desirable performance of the ANFIS and Fuzzy CoCo controllers in considerably reducing the structure responses under different earthquakes; for instance ANFIS and Fuzzy CoCo controllers showed respectively 38 and 46% reductions in peak inter-story drift ($J_1$) compared to the LQG controller; 30 and 39% reductions in $J_1$ compared to the COC controller and 3 and 16% reductions in $J_1$ compared to the GAFLC controller. When compared to other controllers, one can conclude that Fuzzy CoCo controller performs better.

This paper proposes an efficient system identification method for modeling nonlinear behavior of civil structures. This method is developed by integrating three different methodologies: principal component analysis (PCA), artificial neural networks, and fuzzy logic theory, hence named PANFIS (PCA-based adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system). To evaluate this model, a 3-story building equipped with a magnetorheological (MR) damper subjected to a variety of earthquakes is investigated. To train the input-output function of the PANFIS model, an artificial earthquake is generated that contains a variety of characteristics of recorded earthquakes. The trained model is also validated using the1940 El-Centro, Kobe, Northridge, and Hachinohe earthquakes. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is used as a baseline. It is demonstrated from the training and validation processes that the proposed PANFIS model is effective in modeling complex behavior of the smart building. It is also shown that the proposed PANFIS produces similar performance with the benchmark ANFIS model with significant reduction of computational loads.

In this paper, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and artificial neural networks (ANNs) techniques are developed and applied to identify damage in a model steel girder bridge using dynamic parameters. The required data in the form of natural frequencies are obtained from experimental modal analysis. A comparative study is made using the ANNs and ANFIS techniques and results showed that both ANFIS and ANN present good predictions. However the proposed ANFIS architecture using hybrid learning algorithm was found to perform better than the multilayer feedforward ANN which learns using the backpropagation algorithm. This paper also highlights the concept of ANNs and ANFIS followed by the detail presentation of the experimental modal analysis for natural frequencies extraction.

This paper describes modular fuzzy inference systems(MFIS) with adaptive capability to extract fuzzy inference modules from observation data through the learning process. The proposed MFIS is based on the structural similarity to Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy models and a modular neural architecture. The learning of MFIS is done by assigning new fuzzy inference modules and by updating the parameters of existing modules. The fuzzy inference modules consist of local model network and fuzzy gating network. The parameters of the MFIS are updated by the standard LMS algorithm. The performance of the MFIS is illustrated with adaptive control of a nonlinear dynamic system.

Fuzzy neural network is an integrated model of artificial neural network and fuzzy system and it has been successfully applied in control and forecasting area. Recently ANFIS(Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System) has been noticed widely among various fuzzy neural network models because of its outstanding accuracy of control and forecasting area.

We identified ANFIS-based classification model has higher classification accuracy compared to existing classification model, C5.0 decision tree model by comparing their experimental results.

Fuzzy inference which combines numerical data and linguistic data has been used to design adaptive filter algorithms. In adaptive IIR filter design, the fuzzy prefilter is taken account, and applied to both direct and lattice structure. As for the fuzzy inference of the fuzzy filter, the Sugeno's method is employed. As membership functions and inference rules are recursively generated through neural network, the accuracy can be improved. The proposed adaptive algorithm, adaptive IIR filter with fuzzy prefilter, has been applied to adaptive system identification for the purposed of performance test. The evaluations have been carried out with viewpoints of convergence property and tracking properties of the parameter estimation. As a result, the faster convergence and the better coefficients tracking performance than those of the conventional algorithm are shown in case of direct structures.

The bearing diagnostics method is presented in this paper using fuzzy inference based on vibration data. Both time-domain and frequency-domain features are used as input data for bearing fault detection. The Adaptive Network based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) have been proposed to select the fuzzy model input and output parameters. Training results give the optimized fuzzy inference system for bearing diagnosis based on measured vibration data. The result is also tested with other sets of bearing data to illustrate the reliability of the chosen model.
