Learning of Weighted Fuzzy Production Rules by Using a FNN

摘要

We develop a fuzzy neural network (FNN) with a new BP learning algorithm using some smooth function In this paper, this FNN is used to tune the local and global weights of fuzzy production rules (FPRs) so as to enhance the representation power of FPRs; The aim of including local and global weights in FPRs and tuning of these weights is to improve the learning and testing accuracy without increasing the number of rules. By experimenting with some existing benchmark examples (Iris data, Wine data, Pima data and Glass data) the proposed method is found have high accuracy in classifying unseen samples without increasing the number of the extracted FPRs, and furthermore, the time required to consult with domain experts for gaining a rule is reduced. The synergy between WFPRs and a FNN offers a new insight into the construction of better fuzzy intelligent systems in the future.
