  • A new GA-based methodology using information granules is suggested for the construction of fuzzy classifiers. The proposed scheme consists of three steps: selection of information granules, construction of the associated fuzzy sets, and tuning of the fuzzy rules. First, the genetic algorithm (GA) is applied to the development of the adequate information granules. The fuzzy sets are then constructed from the analysis of the developed information granules. An interpretable fuzzy classifier is designed by using the constructed fuzzy sets. Finally, the GA is utilized for tuning of the fuzzy rules, which can enhance the classification performance on the misclassified data (e.g., data with the strange pattern or on the boundaries of the classes). To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, an example, the classification of the Iris data, is provided.

  • In this paper we describe DCClass, a tool for fuzzy information granulation with transparency constraints. The tool is particularly suited to solve fuzzy classification problems, since it is able to automatically extract information granules with class labels. For transparency pursuits, the resulting information granules are represented in form of fuzzy Cartesian product of one-dimensional fuzzy sets. As a key feature, the proposed tool is capable to self-determining the optimal granularity level of each one-dimensional fuzzy set by exploiting class information. The resulting fun information granules can be directly translated in human-comprehensible fuzzy rules to be used for class inference. The paper reports preliminary experimental results on a medical diagnosis problem that shows the utility of the proposed tool.

  • Knowledge representation realized by information granules is one of the essential facets of granular computing and an area of intensive research. Fuzzy clustering and clustering are general vehicles to realize formation of information granules. Granulation - degranulation paradigm is one of the schemes determining and quantifying functionality and knowledge representation capabilities of information granules. In this study, we augment this paradigm by forming and optimizing a collection of associations among original and transformed information granules. We discuss several transformation schemes and analyze their properties. A series of numeric experiments is provided using which we quantify the improvement of the degranulation mechanisms offered by the optimized transformation of information granules.

  • In this paper, a new GA-based methodology with information granules is suggested for construction of the fuzzy classifier. We deal with the selection of the fuzzy region as well as two major classification problems-the feature selection and the pattern classification. The proposed method consists of three steps: the selection of the fuzzy region, the construction of the fuzzy sets, and the tuning of the fuzzy rules. The genetic algorithms (GAs) are applied to the development of the information granules so as to decide the satisfactory fuzzy regions. Finally, the GAs are also applied to the tuning procedure of the fuzzy rules in terms of the management of the misclassified data (e.g., data with the strange pattern or on the boundaries of the classes). To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, an example-the classification of the Iris data, is provided.

  • This paper is concerned with a Logic-based Fuzzy Neural Networks (LFNN) with the aid of fuzzy granulation. As the underlying design tool guiding the development of the proposed LFNN, we concentrate on the context-based fuzzy clustering which builds information granules in the form of linguistic contexts as well as OR fuzzy neuron which is logic-driven processing unit realizing the composition operations of T-norm and S-norm. The design process comprises several main phases such as (a) defining context fuzzy sets in the output space, (b) completing context-based fuzzy clustering in each context, (c) aggregating OR fuzzy neuron into linguistic models, and (c) optimizing connections linking information granules and fuzzy neurons in the input and output spaces. The experimental examples are tested through two-dimensional nonlinear function. The obtained results reveal that the proposed model yields better performance in comparison with conventional linguistic model and other approaches.

  • Fuzzy partition is a conceptual vehicle that encapsulates data into information granules. Fuzzy equalization concerns a process of building information granules that are semantically and experimentally meaningful. A few algorithms generating fuzzy partitions with fuzzy equalization have been suggested. Simulations and experiments have showed that fuzzy partition representing more characteristics of given input distribution usually produces meaningful results. In this paper, given two points and cardinality of fuzzy partition, we prove that it is not true that there always exists a fuzzy partition with fuzzy equalization in which two of points having peaks fall on the given two points. Then, we establish an algorithm that minimizes the maximum distance between given two points and adjacent points having peaks in the partition. A numerical example is presented to show the validity of the suggested algorithm.

  • In this paper, we develop Linguistic Model (LM) based on information granules as a systematic approach to generating fuzzy if-then rules from a given input-output data. The LM introduced by Pedrycz is performed by fuzzy information granulation obtained from Context-based Fuzzy Clustering(CFC). This clustering estimates clusters by preserving the homogeneity of the clustered patterns associated with the input and output data. Although the effectiveness of LM has been demonstrated in the previous works, it needs to improve in the sense of performance. Therefore, we focus on the automatic generation of linguistic contexts, addition of bias term, and the transformed form of consequent parameter to improve both approximation and generalization capability of the conventional LM. The experimental results revealed that the improved LM yielded a better performance in comparison with LM and the conventional works for automobile MPG(miles per gallon) predication and Boston housing data.
