본 논문에서는 기존의 백내장 추출 방법을 개선하기 위해 FCM(Fuzzy C_Means) 알고리즘을 적용하여 백내장을 추출하고 분석하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 애견 안구 영상에서 ROI 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 ROI 영역에서 Fuzzy Stretching 기법을 적용하여 픽셀의 상한 값과 하한 값을 조정한다. 퍼지 스트레칭 기법이 적용된 ROI 영역에 Max-Min 기반 평균 이진화 기법을 적용하여 ROI 영역을 이진화한다. 그리고 퍼지 스트레칭 기법이 적용된 ROI 영역에 FCM 알고리즘을 적용하여 양자화한 후에 양자화된 ROI 영역에서 밝기 평균 이진화 기법을 적용하여 이진화한다. 따라서 Max-Min 기반 이진화 기법을 적용하여 이진화된 ROI 영역과 밝기 평균 이진화 기법을 적용하여 이진화된 ROI 영역을 AND 연산을 적용하여 백내장의 후보 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 백내장의 후보 영역에서 침식, 팽창 기법을 적용하여 ROI 영역의 픽셀 크기를 확대 또는 축소하고 타원 형태를 가진 객체 중에서 ROI의 전체 영역의 크기가 1/5보다 적은 객체를 잡음으로 간주하여 제거한다. 잡음이 제거된 백내장의 후보 영역에서 크기가 3/5이상인 영역을 백내장 영역으로 추출한다. 제안된 방법의 성능을 분석하기 위하여 기존의 백내장 추출 방법과 제안된 백내장 추출 방법을 15개의 백내장 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 백내장 추출 방법보다 백내장 추출률이 개선된 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper, optimization technique such as particle swarm optimization was used to optimize the parameters of fuzzy Extreme Learning Machine. While the learning speed of conventional neural networks is very slow, that of Extreme Learning Machine is very fast. Fuzzy Extreme Learning Machine is composed of the Extreme Learning Machine with very fast learning speed and fuzzy logic which can represent the linguistic information of the field experts. The general sigmoid function is used for the activation function of Extreme Learning Machine. However, the activation function of Fuzzy Extreme Learning Machine is the membership function which is defined in the procedure of fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. We optimize the parameters of the membership functions by using optimization technique such as Particle Swarm Optimization. In order to validate the classification capability of the proposed classifier, we make several experiments with the various machine learning datas.

This paper proposes an improved FCM(Fuzzy C-means) algorithm using intercluster and entropy-based weight in gray image. The fuzzy clustering methods have been extensively used in the image segmentation since it extracts feature information of the region. Most of fuzzy clustering methods have used the FCM algorithm. But, FCM algorithm is still sensitive to noise, as it does not include spatial information. In addition, it can't correctly classify pixels according to the feature-based distributions of clusters. To solve these problems, we applied a weight and intercluster to the traditional FCM algorithm. A weight is obtained from the entropy information based on the cluster's number of neighboring pixels. And a membership for one pixel is given based on the information considering the feature-based intercluster. Experiments has confirmed that the proposed method was more tolerant to noise and superior to existing methods.

In this paper, we introduce a new topology of Radial Basis Function-based Polynomial Neural Networks (RPNN) that is based on a genetically optimized multi-layer perceptron with Radial Polynomial Neurons (RPNs). This study offers a comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of optimization algorithms, especially Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering method and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms. In contrast to the typical architectures encountered in Polynomial Neural Networks (PNNs), our main objective is to develop a design strategy of RPNNs as follows : (a) The architecture of the proposed network consists of Radial Polynomial Neurons (RPNs). In here, the RPN is fully reflective of the structure encountered in numeric data which are granulated with the aid of Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering method. The RPN dwells on the concepts of a collection of radial basis function and the function-based nonlinear (polynomial) processing. (b) The PSO-based design procedure being applied at each layer of RPNN leads to the selection of preferred nodes of the network (RPNs) whose local characteristics (such as the number of input variables, a collection of the specific subset of input variables, the order of the polynomial, and the number of clusters as well as a fuzzification coefficient in the FCM clustering) can be easily adjusted. The performance of the RPNN is quantified through the experimentation where we use a number of modeling benchmarks - NOx emission process data of gas turbine power plant and learning machine data(Automobile Miles Per Gallon Data) already experimented with in fuzzy or neurofuzzy modeling. A comparative analysis reveals that the proposed RPNN exhibits higher accuracy and superb predictive capability in comparison to some previous models available in the literature.

Fuzzy modeling is generally using the given data and the fuzzy rules are established by the input variables and the space division by selecting the input variable and dividing the input space for each input variables. The premise part of the fuzzy rule is presented by selection of the input variables, the number of space division and membership functions and in this paper the consequent part of the fuzzy rule is identified by polynomial functions in the form of linear inference and modified quadratic. Parameter identification in the premise part devides input space Min-Max method using the minimum and maximum values of input data set and C-Means clustering algorithm forming input data into the hard clusters. The identification of the consequence parameters, namely polynomial coefficients, of each rule are carried out by the standard least square method. In this paper, membership function of the premise part is dividing input space by using trapezoid-type membership function and by using gas furnace process which is widely used in nonlinear process we evaluate the performance.

This paper investigates a classification method of the electrocardiogram (ECG) into different disease categories. The features for the classification of the ECG are the coefficients of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) of ECG signals. The coefficients are calculated with Haar wavelet, and after DWT we can get 64 coefficients. Each coefficient has morphological information and they may be good features when conventional time-domain features are not available. Since all of them are not meaningful, it is needed to reduce the size of meaningful coefficients set. The distributions of each coefficient can be the rules to classify ECG signal. The optimally reduced feature set is obtained by fuzzy c-means algorithm and rough set theory. First, the each coefficient is clustered by fuzzy c-means algorithm and the clustered ...

Information granule에 대한 parameter들은 성능지수를 최소화하기 위해 Least square method에 의해서 보정된다. 본 논문에서는 모델을 설계함에 있어서 체계적인 설계 알고리즘을 포괄적으로 설명하고 있으며 더 나아가 제안된 모델의 성능을 다른 표준적인 모델들과 대조함으로써 제안된 모델의 우수성을 나타내고자 한다.

In this study, we introduce Radial Basis Function Neural Networks(RBFNNs) classifier using Artificial Bee Colony(ABC) algorithm in order to classify between precipitation event and non-precipitation event from given radar data. Input information data is rebuilt up through feature analysis of meteorological radar data used in Korea Meteorological Administration. In the condition phase of the proposed classifier, the values of fitness are obtained by using Fuzzy C-Mean clustering method, and the coefficients of polynomial function used in the conclusion phase are estimated by least square method. In the aggregation phase, the final output is obtained by using fuzzy inference method. The performance results of the proposed classifier are compared and analyzed by considering both QC(Quality control) data and CZ(corrected reflectivity) data being used in Korea Meteorological Administration.

We propose a new category of fuzzy set-based fuzzy inference systems based on data granulation related to fuzzy space division for each variables. Data granules are viewed as linked collections of objects(data, in particular) drawn together by the criteria of proximity, similarity, or functionality. Granulation of data with the aid of Hard C-Means(HCM) clustering algorithm help determine the initial parameters of fuzzy model such as the initial apexes of the membership functions and the initial values of polyminial functions being used in the premise and consequence part of the fuzzy rules. And the initial parameters are tuned effectively with the aid of the genetic algorithms(GAs) and the least square method. Numerical example is included to evaluate the performance of the proposed model.
