In GMAW(Gas Metal Arc Welding) process, bead geometry (penetration, bead width and height) is a criterion to estimate welding quality. Bead geometry is affected by welding current, arc voltage and travel speed, shielding gas, CTWB (contact- tip to workpiece distance) and so on. In this paper, welding process variables were selected as welding current, arc voltage and travel speed. And bead geometry was reasoned from the chosen welding process variables using negro-fuzzy algorithm. Neural networks was applied to design FL(fuzzy logic). The parameters of input membership functions and those of consequence functions in FL were tuned through the method of learning by backpropagation algorithm. Bead geometry could be reasoned from welding current, arc voltage, travel speed on FL using the results learned by neural networks.

본 논문에서는 Subtractive clustering 알고리즘을 이용한 Fuzzy Radial Basis Function Neural Network (FRBFNN)의 규칙 수를 자동적으로 생성하는 방법을 제시한다. FRBFNN은 멤버쉽 함수로써 기존 RBFNN에서 가우시안이나 타원형 형태의 특정 RBF를 사용하는 구조와 달리 Fuzzy C-Means clustering 알고리즘에서 사용하는 거리에 기한 멤버쉽 함수를 사용하여 전반부의 공간 분할 및 활성화 레벨을 결정하는 구조이다. 본 논문에서는 데이터의 밀집도에 기반을 두어 클러스터링을 하는 Subtractive clustering 알고리즘을 사용하여 퍼지 규칙의 수와 같은 의미를 갖는 분할할 입력공간의 수와 분할된 입력공간의 중심값을 동정하며, Least Square Estimator (LSE) 알고리즘을 사용하여 후반부 다항식의 계수를 추정 한다.

the objective of this study is to design and evaluate a methodology for diagnosing the appendicitis in a fuzzy neural network that integrates the partition of input space by fuzzy entropy and the generation of fuzzy control rules and learning algorithm. In particular the diagnosis of appendicitis depends on the rule of thumb of the experts such that it associates with the region, the characteristics, the degree of the ache and the potential symptoms. In this scheme the basic idea is to realize the fuzzy rle base and the process of reasoning by neural network and to make the corresponding parameters of the fuzzy control rules be adapted by back propagation learning rule. To eliminate the number of the parameters of the rules, the output of the consequences of the control rules is expressed by the network's connection weights. As a result we obtain a method for reducing the system's complexities. Through computer simulations the effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified for the diagnosis of appendicitis.

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. Recycling cells are formed considering design, process and usage attributes. In this paper, a novel approach to the design of cellular recycling system is proposed, which deals with the recycling cell formation and assignment of identical products concurrently. Fuzzy clustering algorithm and Fuzzy-ART neural network are applied to describe the states of disposal product with the membership functions and to make recycling cell formation. This approach leads to recycling and reuse of the materials, components, and subassemblies and can evaluate the value at each cell of disposal products. Application examples are illustrated by disposal refrigerators, compared fuzzy clustering with Fuzzy-ART neural network performance in cell formation.

In this paper is studied a method of fuzzy logic control based on possibly inconsistent if-then rules representing uncertain knowledge or imprecise data. In most cases of practical applications adopting fuzzy if-then rule bases, inconsistent rules have been considered as ill-defined rules and, thus, not allowed to be in the same rule base. Note, however, that, in representing uncertain knowledge by using fuzzy if-then rules, the knowledge sometimes can not be represented in literally consistent if-then rules. In this regard, when it is hard to obtain consistent rule base, we propose the weighted rule base fuzzy logic control depending on output performance using neural network and we will derive the weight update algorithm. Computer simulations show the proposed method has good performance to deal with the inconsistent rule base fuzzy logic control. And we discuss the real application problems.

In this paper, a sensor fusion based robot navigation method for the autonomous control of a miniature human interaction robot is presented. The method of navigation blends the optimality of the Fuzzy Neural Network(FNN) based control algorithm with the capabilities in expressing knowledge and learning of the networked Intelligent Robotic Space(IRS). States of robot and IR space, for examples, the distance between the mobile robot and obstacles and the velocity of mobile robot, are used as the inputs of fuzzy logic controller. The navigation strategy is based on the combination of fuzzy rules tuned for both goal-approach and obstacle-avoidance. To identify the environments, a sensor fusion technique is introduced, where the sensory data of ultrasonic sensors and a vision sensor are fused into the identification process. Preliminary experiment and results are shown to demonstrate the merit of the introduced navigation control algorithm.

Neural networks and fuzzy systems have attracted the attention of many researehers recently. In general, neural networks are used to obtain information about systems from input/output observation and learning procedure. On the other hand, fuzzy systems use fuzzy rules to identify or control systems. In this paper we present a generalized FCMAC(Fuzzified Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller) networks, by integrating fuzzy systems with the CMAC(Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller) networks. We propose a direct adaptive controller design based on FCMAC(fuzzified CMAC) networks. Simulation results reveal that the proposed adaptive controller is practically feasible in nonlinear plant control.

This study applied the Neural Network and Fuzzy theory to show water-purity control and preventive measure in water quality forecasting of the future river. This study picked out NAJU and HAMPYUNG as the subject of investigation and used monthly the water quality and the outflow data of KWANGJU2, NAJU, YOUNGSANNPO and HAMPYUNG from 1995 to 1999 to forecast BOD, COD, T-N, T-P water density. The datum from 1995 to 1999 are used for study and that of 2000 are used for verification. To develop model of water quality forecasting, firstly, this research formed Neural Network model and divided Neural Network model into two case - the case of considering lag and not considering. And this study selected optimal Neural Network model through changing the number of hidden layer based on input layer(n) from n to 3n. Through forecasting result, the case without considering lag showed more precise simulated result. Accordingly, this study intended to compare, analyse that Fuzzy model using the method without considering lag with Neural Network model. As a result, this study found that the model without considering lag in Neural Network Network shows the most excellent outcome. Thus this study examined a forecasting accuracy, analyzed result and verified propriety through appling the method of water quality forecasting using Neural Network and Fuzzy Algorithms to the actual case.

This paper presents a fuzzy neural network model which solves the underutilization problem. This fuzzy neural network has both stability and flexibility because it uses the control structure similar to AHT(Adaptive Resonance Theory)-l neural network. And this fuzzy nenral network does not need to initialize weights and is less sensitive to noise than ART-l neural network is. The learning rule of this fuzzy neural network is the modified and fuzzified version of Kohonen learning rule and is based on the fuzzification of leaky competitive leaming and the fuzzification of conditional probability. The similarity measure of vigilance test, which is performed after selecting a winner among output neurons, is the relative distance. This relative distance considers Euclidean distance and the relative location between a datum and the prototypes of clusters. To compare the performance of the proposed fuzzy neural network with that of Kohonen Self-Organizing Feature Map the IRIS data and Gaussian-distributed data are used.

The Neuron structure in a nervous system consists of inhibitory neurons and excitory neurons. Both neurons are activated by agonistic neurons and inactivated by antagonist neurons. In this paper, we proposed a physiological fuzzy neural network by analyzing the physiological neuron structure in the nervous system. The proposed structure selectively activates the neurons which go through a state of excitement caused by agonistic neurons and also transmit the signal of these neurons to the output layers. The proposed physiological fuzzy neural networks based on the nervous system consists of a input player, and the hidden layer which classifies features of learning data, and output layer. The proposed fuzzy neural network is applied to recognize bronchial squamous cell carcinoma images and car plate images. The result of the experiments shows that the learning time, the convergence, and the recognition rate of the proposed physiological fuzzy neural networks outperform the conventional neural networks.
