In this paper, we proposed the new fuzzy pattern classifier which combines several fuzzy models with simple consequent parts hierarchically. The basic component of the proposed fuzzy pattern classifier with hierarchical structure is a fuzzy model with simple consequent part so that the complexity of the proposed fuzzy pattern classifier is not high. In order to analyze and divide the input space, we use Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. In addition, we exploit Conditional Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm to analyze the sub space which is divided by Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. At each clustered region, we apply a fuzzy model with simple consequent part and build the fuzzy pattern classifier with hierarchical structure. Because of the hierarchical structure of the proposed pattern classifier, the data distribution of the input space can be analyzed in the macroscopic point of view and the microscopic point of view. Finally, in order to evaluate the classification ability of the proposed pattern classifier, the machine learning data sets are used.

The fuzzy pattern matching technique has been developed in the framework of fuzzy set and possibility theory in order to take into account the imprecision and the uncertainty pervading values which have to be compared to requirements (which may be fuzzy) in a pattern matching process. This paper restates the basic principles and extends them to situations where (sub)patterns are only required to be satisfied up to a given tolerance (which may be fuzzy), or where the different subparts of a compound pattern may have various levels of importance. Both cases correspond to a weakening of elementary patterns. which can be expressed by a fuzzy relations modelling an approximate equality or an uncertain strict equality respectively. We also study the more sophisticated case where some elementary patterns have not to be satisfied with the highest priority provided that weaker requirements remain satisfied. The fuzzy pattern matching technique applies in a variety of problems including the evaluation of soft queries with respect to a fuzzy database, the evaluation of the fuzzy condition parts of rules in approximate reasoning, or the evaluation of the belonging of an ill-known object to a flexible class in classification problems.

Plant pipe has a fatigue life which is induced by repeated stress come from the variation of temperature and pressure. To avoid the fatigue crack of plant pipe which is produced by long term repeated stress, plant operator has to limit the mont of operating transient. This paper introduced the study result about discrimination methodology of plant transient by using the fuzzy pattern recognition. As result of applying the fuzzy pattern recognition to actual plant operation data, it is confirmed that fuzzy pattern recognition methodology can be useful for the comparison of similarity for the transients of similar output but has different time pattern.

In this paper, in order to avoid the deterioration of the pattern classification performance which results from the curse of dimensionality, we propose a new feature selection method. The newly proposed feature selection method is based on Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm which analyzes the data points to divide them into several clusters and the concept of a function with fuzzy numbers. When it comes to the concept of a function where independent variables are fuzzy numbers and a dependent variable is a label of class, a fuzzy number should be related to the only one class label. Therefore, a good feature is a independent variable of a function with fuzzy numbers. Under this assumption, we calculate the goodness of each feature to pattern classification problem. Finally, in order to evaluate the classification ability of the proposed pattern classifier, the machine learning data sets are used.

In this paper, we introduce a novel learning methodology of fuzzy clustering-based neural network pattern classifier. Fuzzy clustering-based neural network pattern classifier depicts the patterns of given classes using fuzzy rules and categorizes the patterns on unseen data through fuzzy rules. Least squares estimator(LSE) or weighted least squares estimator(WLSE) is typically used in order to estimate the coefficients of polynomial function, but this study proposes a novel coefficient estimate method which includes advantages of the existing methods. The premise part of fuzzy rule depicts input space as "If" clause of fuzzy rule through fuzzy c-means(FCM) clustering, while the consequent part of fuzzy rule denotes output space through polynomial function such as linear, quadratic and their coefficients are estimated by the proposed local least squares estimator(LLSE)-based learning. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed pattern classifier, the variety of machine learning data sets are exploited in experiments and through the comparative analysis of performance, it provides that the proposed LLSE-based learning method is preferable when compared with the other learning methods conventionally used in previous literature.

Recently, researches on ontology-based pattern classification have been tried out in many fields. However, in most of the researches, the ontology which represents the knowledge about pattern classification is just referred during the processes of the pattern classification. In this paper, we propose ontology-based fuzzy classifier for pattern classification which is extended from the fuzzy rule-based classifier In order to realize the proposed classifier, we construct an ontology by conceptualizing the method of fuzzy rule-based pattern classification and generate ontology inference rules for pattern classification. Lastly, we show the validity o) the proposed classifier through the experiment of pattern classification on the Fisher's IRIS dataset.

This paper proposes a fuzzy support vector machine ($FSVM_n$) pattern classifier to classify the arrhythmia patterns of an electrocardiograph (ECG). The $FSVM_n$ is a pattern classifier which combines n-dimensional fuzzy membership functions with a slack variable of SVM. To evaluate the performance of the proposed classifier, the MIT/BIH ECG database, which is a standard database for evaluating arrhythmia detection, was used. The pattern classification experiment showed that, when classifying ECG into four patterns - NSR, VT, VF, and NSR, VT, and VF classification rate resulted in 99.42%, 99.00%, and 99.79%, respectively. As a result, the $FSVM_n$ shows better pattern classification performance than the existing SVM and FSVM algorithms.

In this paper, we propose an integrated GUI environment of parallel fuzzy inference system fur pattern classification of remote sensing data. In this, as 4 fuzzy variables in condition part and 104 fuzzy rules are used, a real time and parallel approach is required. For frost fuzzy computation, we use the scan line conversion algorithm to convert lines of each fuzzy linguistic term to the closest integer pixels. We design 4 fuzzy processor unit to be operated in parallel by using FPGA. As a GUI environment, PCI transmission, image data pre-processing, integer pixel mapping and fuzzy membership tuning are considered. This system can be used in a pattern classification system requiring a rapid inference time in a real-time.

Segmentation plays an important role in the field of image processing and computer vision. Intuitionistic fuzzy C-means (IFCM) clustering algorithm emerged as an effective technique for image segmentation in recent years. However, standard fuzzy C-means (FCM) and IFCM algorithms are sensitive to noise and initial cluster centers, and they ignore the spatial relationship of pixels. In view of these shortcomings, an improved algorithm based on IFCM is proposed in this paper. Firstly, we propose a modified non-membership function to generate intuitionistic fuzzy set and a method of determining initial clustering centers based on grayscale features, they highlight the effect of uncertainty in intuitionistic fuzzy set and improve the robustness to noise. Secondly, an improved nonlinear kernel function is proposed to map data into kernel space to measure the distance between data and the cluster centers more accurately. Thirdly, the local spatial-gray information measure is introduced, which considers membership degree, gray features and spatial position information at the same time. Finally, we propose a new measure of intuitionistic fuzzy entropy, it takes into account fuzziness and intuition of intuitionistic fuzzy set. The experimental results show that compared with other IFCM based algorithms, the proposed algorithm has better segmentation and clustering performance.
