A recurrent fuzzy network for fuzzy temporal sequence processing and gesture recognition

摘要

A fuzzified Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK)-type recurrent fuzzy network (FTRFN) for handling fuzzy temporal information is proposed in this paper. The FTRFN extends our previously proposed network, TRFN, to deal with fuzzy temporal signals represented by Gaussian or triangular fuzzy numbers. In the precondition part of FTRFN, matching degrees between input fuzzy variables and fuzzy antecedent sets is performed by similarity measure. In the TSK-type consequence, a linear combination of fuzzy variables is computed, where two sets of combination coefficients, one for the center and the other for the width of each fuzzy number, are used. Derivation of the linear combination results and final network output is based on left-right fuzzy number operation. There are no rules in FTRFN initially; they are constructed online by concurrent structure and parameter learning, where all free parameters in the precondition/consequence of FTRFN are all tunable. FTRFN can be applied on a variety of domains related to fuzzy temporal information processing. In this paper, it has been applied on one-dimensional and two-dimensional fuzzy temporal sequence prediction and CCD-based temporal gesture recognition. The performance of FTRFN is verified from these examples.
