  • 본 논문은 요즘 유행하는 웰빙(Well Being)에 대한 관심과 점점 고조되는 사람의 체질구분에 대해 퍼지이론(Fuzzy Theory)를 통해 연구하였다. 또한 각 체질구분에 따른 음식궁합을 따져서 보다 개인적 웰빙음식이 무엇이 있나에 대해 연구하였다. 사람마다 각각에 체질을 가지고 있다. 또한 자신의 체질이 아니더라도, 다른 체질에 대한 특성을 가질 수 있다. 이런 점에서 퍼지이론을 사용하여 체질을 구분할 수 있다. 퍼지이론의 큰 장점이 문제점 해결시 참<1>, 거짓<0>으로 해결하지 않기 때문에 여러 가지 문제 해결점을 가진다는 것이다. 공통적으로 해당하는 체질문항일 경우 퍼지 소속함수 값을 각각 다르게 주어서 최종 포인트에 대한 Fuzzy set 의 크기를 따져 체질구분을 하고, 그에 따른 음식궁합을 규정한다.

  • The recycling cell formation problem means that disposal products are classified into recycling part families using group technology in their end of life phase. Disposal products have the uncertainties of product status by usage influences during product use phase and recycling cells are formed design, process and usage attributes. In order to treat the uncertainties, fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic-based neural network model are applied to recycling cell formation problem for disposal products. In this paper, a heuristic approach for fuzzy ART neural network is suggested. The modified Fuzzy ART neural network is shown that it has a great efficiency and give an extension for systematically generating alternative solutions in the recycling cell formation problem. We present the results of this approach applied to disposal refrigerators and the comparison of performances between other algorithms. This paper introduced a procedure which integrates economic and environmental factors into the disassembly of disposal products for recycling in recycling cells. A qualitative method of disassembly analysis is developed and its aim is to improve the efficiency of the disassembly and to generated an optimal disassembly which maximize profits and minimize environmental impact. Three criteria established to reduce the search space and facilitate recycling opportunities.

  • Since Zadeh had published the fuzzy set theory at 1965, it has been applied to many fields such as realizability of communication nets, automatic control, learning systems, switching circuits. In this paper, the method of applying a fuzzy logic to a pattern classification is studied and the difference of fuzzy logic from Boolean algebra is discussed. Classfication experiment is carried out 16 persons' photos of three families by fourty male and female observers and recognition rate 94% is obtained.

  • Uncertainty is pervasive in rock slope stability analysis due to various reasons and subsequently it may cause serious rock slope failures. Therefore, the importance of uncertainty has been recognized and subsequently the probability theory has been used to quantify the uncertainty since 1980's. However, some uncertainties, due to incomplete information, cannot be handled satisfactorily in the probability theory and the fuzzy set theory is more appropriate for those uncertainties. In this study the random variable is considered as fuzzy number and the fuzzy set theory is employed in rock slope stability analysis. However, the previous fuzzy analysis employed the approximate method, which is first order second moment method and point estimate method. Since previous studies used only the representative values from membership function to evaluate the stability of rock slope, the approximated analysis results have been obtained in previous studies. Therefore, the Monte Carlo simulation technique is utilized to evaluate the probability of failure for rock slope in the current study. This overcomes the shortcomings of previous studies, which are employed vertex method. With Monte Carlo simulation technique, more complete analysis results can be secured in the proposed method. The proposed method has been applied to the practical example. According to the analysis results, the probabilities of failure obtained from the fuzzy Monte Carlo simulation coincide with the probabilities of failure from the probabilistic analysis.

  • Based on the theory of a bipolar fuzzy set, the notion of a bipolar fuzzy subring/ideal of a Near ring is introduced and related properties are investigated. Characterizations of a bipolar fuzzy subnear ring and a bipolar fuzzy ideal in near ring are established. Relations between a bipolar fuzzy ideal and a level cut are discussed. Using bipolar fuzzy ideals, we discuss characterizations of Noetherian Near ring.

  • The rapid growth and spread of the World Wide Web has made it possible to easily access a variety of useful information. It is, however, very difficult to retrieve, manage, and use the desired information in web. Various kinds of systems such as Search engines, MetaSearch engines, Spiders, Softbots, Intelligent Agents or Web Agents have been developed by a large number of researchers and companies. Those systems as intelligent agent are employed to avoid the overload of information. To efficiently improve the Software Agents, it is necessary to represent and classify the retrieved data. And to improve performance of the Intelligent Agents to create the classification, it is offered how to evaluate the propriety with other information retrieved from the Web and to recommend to the user the most suitable information.

  • Successful implementation of statistical process control techniques requires for operational definitions and precise measurements. Nevertheless, very often analysts can dispose of process data available only by linguistic terms, that would be a waste to neglect just because of their intrinsic vagueness. Thus a hybrid approach, which integrates fuzzy set theory and common statistical tools, sounds useful in order to improve effectiveness of statistical process control in such a case. In this work, a fuzzy approach is adopted to manage linguistic information, and the use of a Chi-squared control chart is proposed to monitor process performance.

  • In this paper, Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy set theory is used to handle the uncertainty of students' knowledgeon domain concepts in an E-learning system. Their knowledge on these domain concepts has been collected from tests that were conducted during their learning phase. Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy user model is proposed to deal with vagueness in the user's knowledge description in domain concepts. The user model uses Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets for knowledge representation and linguistic rules for updating the user model. The scores obtained by each student were collected in this model and the decision about the students' knowledge acquisition for each concept whether completely learned, completely known, partially known or completely unknown were placed into the information table. Finally, it has been found that the proposed scheme is more appropriate than the fuzzy scheme.

  • The purpose of this study is to test the applicability of neuro-fuzzy system for monthly dam inflow forecasts by using weather forecasting information. The neuro-fuzzy algorithm adopted in this study is the ANFIS(Adaptive neuro-fuzzy Inference System) in which neural network theory is combined with fuzzy theory. The ANFIS model can experience the difficulties in selection of a control rule by a space partition because the number of control value increases rapidly as the number of fuzzy variable increases. In an effort to overcome this drawback, this study used the subtractive clustering which is one of fuzzy clustering methods. Also, this study proposed a method for converting qualitative weather forecasting information to quantitative one. ANFIS for monthly dam inflow forecasts was tested in cases of with or without weather forecasting information. It can be seen that the model performances obtained from the use of past observed data and future weather forecasting information are much better than those from past observed data only.

  • A robust and reliable learning and reasoning mechanism is addressed based upon fuzzy set theory and fuzzy associative memories. The mechanism stores a priori an initial knowledge base via approximate learning and utilizes this information for decision-making systems via fuzzy inferencing. We called this fuzzy computer architecture a 'fuzzy hypercube' processing all the rules in one clock period in parallel. Fuzzy hypercubes can be applied to control of a class of complex and highly nonlinear systems which suffer from vagueness uncertainty. Moreover, evidential aspects of a fuzzy hypercube are treated to assess the degree of certainty or reliability together with parameter sensitivity.
