This paper describes the initial hull form design process which generate a hull form using a neurofuzzy modeling. Neurofuzzy system is to combine the merits of fuzzy inference system and neural networks. Therefore it has structured knowledge representations as well as adaptive capacities. Initial hull form design stage is the process which generate an adoptable hull form from the limited design information and multi-decidions condidering correlations with design factors. It can be assidted efficiently by neurofuzzy system. This paper suggests two methods of an initial hull form generation using the neurofuzzy modeling and B-spline theory. and examines the usefulness of suggested method through its application examples.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a neurofuzzy modeling & inference system which can determine principle dimensions and hull factors in an initial ship design. Neurofuzzy modeling & inference for a hull form design (NeFHull) applies the given input-output data to the fuzzy theory. NeFHull also deals the fuzzificated values with neural networks. NeFHull redefines normalized input-output data as membership functions and executes the fuzzficated information with backporpagation-neural -networks. A hybrid learning algorithms utilized in the training of neural networks and examining the usefulness of suggested method through mathematical and mechanical examples.

In this paper, we propose Self-organizing neurofuzzy networks(SONFN) and discuss their comprehensive design methodology. The proposed SONFN is generated from the mutually combined structure of both neurofuzzy networks (NFN) and polynomial neural networks(PNN) for model identification of complex and nonlinear systems. NFN contributes to the formation of the premise part of the SONFN. The consequence part of the SONFN is designed using PNN. The parameters of the membership functions, learning rates and momentum coefficients are adjusted with the use of genetic optimization. We discuss two kinds of SONFN architectures and propose a comprehensive learning algorithm. It is shown that this network...

In this study, we introduce a concept of neurofuzzy polynomial networks (NFPN), a hybrid modeling architecture combining neurofuzzy networks (NFN) and polynomial neural networks(PNN). NFN contributes to the formation of the premise part of the rule-based structure of the NFPN. The consequence part of the NFPN is designed using PNN. The parameters of the membership functions, learning rates and momentum coefficients are adjusted with the use of genetic optimization. We introduce two kinds of NFPN architectures, namely the basic and the modified one. Owing to the specific features of two combined architectures, it is possible to consider the nonlinear characteristics of process system and to obtain the better output performance with superb predictive ability.

In this paper, new architectures and comprehensive design methodologies of Genetic Algorithms(GAs) based Genetically optimized Neurofuzzy Networks(GoNFN) are introduced, and a series of numeric experiments are carried out. The proposed GoNFN is based on the rule-based Neurofuzzy Networks(NFN) with the extended structure of the premise and the consequence parts of fuzzy rules being formed within the networks. The premise part of the fuzzy rules are designed by using space partitioning in terms of fuzzy sets defined in individual variables. In the consequence part of the fuzzy rules, three different forms of the regression polynomials such as constant, linear and quadratic are taken into consideration. The structure and parameters of the proposed GoNFN are optimized by GAs. GAs being a global optimization technique determines optimal parameters in a vast search space. But it cannot effectively avoid a large amount of time-consuming iteration because GAs finds optimal parameters by using a given space. To alleviate the problems, the dynamic search-based GAs is introduced to lead to rapidly optimal convergence over a limited region or a boundary condition. In a nutshell, the objective of this study is to develop a general design methodology o GAs-based GoNFN modeling, come up a logic-based structure of such model and propose a comprehensive evolutionary development environment in which the optimization of the model can be efficiently carried out both at the structural as well as parametric level for overall optimization by utilizing the separate or consecutive tuning technology. To evaluate the performance of the proposed GoNFN, the models are experimented with the use of several representative numerical examples.

본 연구는 뉴로퍼지 네트워크와 다항식 뉴럴네트워크를 합성한 하이브리드 모델링 구조인 고급 뉴로퍼지 다항식 네트워크(Advanced neurofuzzy polynomial networks ; ANFPN)를 제안한다. 제안된 네트워크 구조는 높은 비선형 규칙 기반 모델로, CI(Computational Intelligence)의 기술, 즉 퍼지집합, 뉴럴네트워크, 유전자 알고리즘에 의해 설계되어진다. 뉴로퍼지 네트워크는 ANFPN 구조의 전반부를, 다항식 뉴럴네트워크는 후반부를 구성한다. ANFPN의 전반부에서, 뉴로퍼지 네트워크는 간략추론, 오류역전파 학습 규칙을 이용한다. 멤버쉽함수의 파라미터, 학습율, 모멘텀 계수는 유전자 최적화를 이용하여 조절된다. ANFPN의 후반부 구조로서 다항식 뉴럴네트워크는 학습을 통해 생성되는(전개되는) 유연한 네트워크 구조이다. 특히 다항식 뉴럴네트워크의 층과 노드 수는 고정되어 있지 않고 동적으로 생성된다. 본 연구에서는, 2가지 형태의 ANFPN 구조를 제안한다. 즉 기본 구조와 변형된 구조이다. 여기서 기본 구조와 변형된 구조는 다항식 뉴럴네트워크 구조의 각 층에서 입력변수의 수와 회귀다항식의 차수에 의존한다. 두 결합 구조의 특징 때문에 공정 시스템의 비선형적인 특성을 고려할 수 있고 보다 우수한 예측능력을 가진 좋은 출력선응을 얻을 수 있게 한다. ANFPN의 유용성과 실용성은 2개의 수치 예제를 통해 논의된다. 제안된 ANFPN은 기존의 모델보다 높은 정밀도와 예측능력을 가진 모델을 생성함을 보인다.

Being aware of the risk in advance necessitates intricate processes but is feasible. Although previous studies have demonstrated high accuracy, their performance still leaves room for improvement. A self-organizing feature map (SOM) based neurofuzzy model is developed in this study to provide another alternative for forecasting corporate financial distress. The model is designed to yield high prediction accuracy, as well as reference rules for evaluating corporate financial status. As a database, the study collects all financial reports from listed construction companies during the latest decade, resulting in over 1000 effective samples. The proportion of "failed" and "non-failed" companies is approximately 1:2. Each financial report is comprised of 25 ratios which are set as the input variable s. The proposed model integrates the concepts of pattern classification, fuzzy modeling and SOM-based optimization to predict corporate financial distress. The results exhibit a high accuracy rate at 85.1%. This model outperforms previous tools. A total of 97 rules are extracted from the proposed model which can be also used as reference for construction practitioners. Users may easily identify their corporate financial status by using these rules.

The fuzzy inference system is a popular computing framework based on the concepts of fuzzy set theory, fuzzy if-then rules, and fuzzy reasoning. The advantage of fuzzy approach over traditional ones lies on the fact that fuzzy system does not require a detail mathematical description of the system while modeling. As modeling method. the Group Method of Data Handling(GMDH) is introduced by A.G. Ivakhnenko GMDH is an analysis technique for identifying nonlinear relationships between system's inputs and output. We study a Novel Neuro-Fuzzy Network (NNFN) in this paper. NNFN is a network resulting from the combination of a fuzzy inference system and polynomial neural network(PNN) (7) which is advanced structure of GMDH. Simulation involve a series of synthetic as well as experimental data used across various neurofuzzy systems.

We propose a new category of hybrid multi-layer neural networks with hetero nodes such as Fuzzy Set based Polynomial Neurons (FSPNs) and Polynomial Neurons (PNs). These networks are based on a genetically optimized multi-layer perceptron. We develop a comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization and genetic algorithms, in particular. The augmented genetically optimized HFPNN (namely gHFPNN) results in a structurally optimized structure and comes with a higher level of flexibility in comparison to the one we encounter in the conventional HFPNN. The GA-based design procedure being applied at each layer of HFPNN leads to the selection of preferred nodes (FPNs or PNs) available within the HFPNN. In the sequel, two general optimization mechanisms are explored. First, the structural optimization is realized via GAs whereas the ensuing detailed parametric optimization is carried out in the setting of a standard least square method-based learning. The performance of the gHFPNNs quantified through experimentation where we use a number of modeling benchmarks-synthetic and experimental data already experimented with in fuzzy or neurofuzzy modeling.
