In this paper, we propose a learning algorithm of fuzzy neural networks with trapezoidal fuzzy weights. This fuzzy neural networks can use fuzzy numbers as well as real numbers, and represent linguistic information better than standard neural networks. We construct trapezodal fuzzy weights by the composition of two triangles, and devise a learning algorithm using the two triangular membership functions, The results of computer simulations on numerical data show that the fuzzy neural networks have high fitting ability for target output.

This tutorial paper has been written for biologists, physicians or beginners in fuzzy sets theory and applications. This field is introduced in the framework of medical diagnosis problems. The paper describes and illustrates with practical examples, a general methodology of special interest in the processing of borderline cases, that allows a graded assignment of diagnoses to patients. A pattern of medical knowledge consists of a tableau with linguistic entries or of fuzzy propositions. Relationships between symptoms and diagnoses are interpreted as labels of fuzzy sets. It is shown how possibility measures (soft matching) can be used and combined to derive diagnoses after measurements on collected data. The concepts and methods are illustrated in a biomedical application on inflammatory protein variations. In the case of poor diagnostic classifications, it is introduced appropriate ponderations, acting on the characterizations of proteins, in order to decrease their relative influence. As a consequence, when pattern matching is achieved, the final ranking of inflammatory syndromes assigned to a given patient might change to better fit the actual classification. Defuzzification of results (i.e. diagnostic groups assigned to patients) is performed as a non fuzzy sets partition issued from a "separating power", and not as the center of gravity method commonly employed in fuzzy control. It is then introduced a model of fuzzy connectionist expert system, in which an artificial neural network is designed to build the knowledge base of an expert system, from training examples (this model can also be used for specifications of rules in fuzzy logic control). Two types of weights are associated with the connections: primary linguistic weights, interpreted as labels of fuzzy sets, and secondary numerical weights. Cell activation is computed through MIN-MAX fuzzy equations of the weights. Learning consists in finding the (numerical) weights and the network topology. This feed forward network is described and illustrated in the same biomedical domain as in the first part.

Constructing a shortest path on a graph is a fundamental problem in the area of graph theory. In an application where we cannot exactly determine the weights of edges, fuzzy weights can be used instead of crisp weights, and Type-2 fuzzy weights will be more suitable if this uncertainty varies under some conditions. In this paper, shortest path problem in type-1 fuzzy weighted graphs is extended for type-2 fuzzy weighted graphes. A solution is also given based on possibility theory and extension principle.

This article presents the experimental studies of controlling angle and position of the inverted pendulum system using neural network to compensate for errors caused due to fuzzy controller. Although fuzzy control method can deal with nonlinearities of the system, fixed fuzzy rules may not work and result in tracking errors in some cases. First, a nominal Takagi-Sugeno (TS) type fuzzy controller with fixed weights is used for controlling the inverted pendulum system. Then the neural network is added at the reference input to form the reference compensation technique (RCT)control structure. Neural network modifies the input trajectories to improve system performances by updating internal weights in on-line fashion. The back-propagation learning algorithm for neural network is derived and used to update weights. Control hardware of a DSP 6713 board to have real time control is implemented. Experimental results of controlling inverted pendulum system are conducted and performances are compared.

This paper proposes a weighted fuzzy reasoning algorithm for rule-based systems based on weighted fuzzy Pr/T nets, where the certainty factors of the fuzzy production rules, the truth values of the predicates appearing in the rules and the weights representing the importance of the predicates are represented by the fuzzy numbers. The proposed algorithm is more flexible and much closer to human intuition and reasoning than other methods : $\circled1$ calculate the certainty factors using by the simple min and max operations based on the only certainty factors of the fuzzy production rules without the weights of the predicates[10] : $\circled2$ evaluate the belief of the fuzzy production rules using by the belief evaluation functions according to fuzzy concepts in the fuzzy rules without the weights of the predicates[12], because this algorithm uses the weights representing the importance of the predicates in the fuzzy production rules.

The objective of this paper is to develop a fuzzy logic based decision-making system to detect low current faults using multiple detection algorithms. This fuzzy system utilizes a fuzzy expert model which executes an operation without complicated mathematical models. This fuzzy system decides the performance weights of the detection algorithms. The weights and the turnouts of the detection algorithms discriminate faults from normal events. This system can also be a generic group decision-making tool for other areas of power system protection.

In general, the reliabilities of the fuzzy system are represented and analyzed by real numbers between zero and one, fuzzy numbers, intervals of confidence, interval-valued fuzzy sets, vague sets, etc. This paper addresses the method to analyze the reliability of the fuzzy system for the weighted components with the weights reflected on the importance of weighted components in an system. The reliabilities and the weights of the weighted components in a fuzzy numbers and considers the weights of the weighted components in a fuzzy system, therefore, its execution is faster and more flexible than the conventional methods.

In this paper, first we propose an architecture of fuzzy neural networks with triangular fuzzy weights. The proposed fuzzy neural network can handle fuzzy input vectors. In both cases, outputs from the fuzzy network are fuzzy vectors. The input-output relation of each unit of the fuzzy neural network is defined by the extention principle of Zadeh. Also we define a cost function for the level sets(i. e., $\alpha$-cuts)of fuzzy outputs and fuzzy targets. Then we derive a learning algorithm from the cost function for adjusting three parameters of each triangular fuzzy weight. Finally, we illustrate our a, pp.oach by computer simulation examples.

In the conventional researches, the reliabilities of the fuzzy system are represented and analyzed by real values between zero and one, fuzzy numbers, intervals of confidence, etc. In this paper, we present a method to represent and analyze the reliabilities of the weighted components of the fuzzy system and the weights reflected on their importance based on vague sets defined in the universe of discourse [0, 1]. The vague set is represented as the interval consisted of the truth-membership functions and the false-membership functions, therefore it can allow the reliabilities and the weights of a fuzzy system to represent in a more flexible manner. The proposed method considers the weights of the weighted components in the fuzzy systems, its reliability analysis is more flexible and effective than the conventional methods.
