On the usage of the probability integral transform to reduce the complexity of multi-way fuzzy decision trees in Big Data classification problems
We present a new distributed fuzzy partitioning method to reduce the
complexity of multi-way fuzzy decision trees in Big Data classification
problems. The proposed algorithm builds a fixed number of fuzzy sets for all
variables and adjusts their shape and position to the real distribution of
training data. A two-step process is applied : 1) transformation of the
original distribution into a standard uniform distribution by means of the
probability integral transform. Since the original distribution is generally
unknown, the cumulative distribution function is approximated by computing the
q-quantiles of the training set; 2) construction of a Ruspini strong fuzzy
partition in the transformed attribute space using a fixed number of equally
distributed triangular membership functions. Despite the aforementioned
transformation, the definition of every fuzzy set in the original space can be
recovered by applying the inverse cumulative distribution function (also known
as quantile function). The experimental results reveal that the proposed
methodology allows the state-of-the-art multi-way fuzzy decision tree (FMDT)
induction algorithm to maintain classification accuracy with up to 6 million
fewer leaves.Comment: Appeared in 2018 IEEE International Congress on Big Data (BigData

Connectionist Inference Models
The performance of symbolic inference tasks has long been a challenge to connectionists. In this paper, we present an extended survey of this area. Existing connectionist inference systems are reviewed, with particular reference to how they perform variable binding and rule-based reasoning, and whether they involve distributed or localist representations. The benefits and disadvantages of different representations and systems are outlined, and conclusions drawn regarding the capabilities of connectionist inference systems when compared with symbolic inference systems or when used for cognitive modeling
An Intelligent Knowledge Management System from a Semantic Perspective
Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) are important tools by which organizations can better use information and, more importantly, manage knowledge. Unlike other strategies, knowledge management (KM) is difficult to define because it encompasses a range of concepts, management tasks, technologies, and organizational practices, all of which come under the umbrella of the information management. Semantic approaches allow easier and more efficient training, maintenance, and support knowledge. Current ICT markets are dominated by relational databases and document-centric information technologies, procedural algorithmic programming paradigms, and stack architecture. A key driver of global economic expansion in the coming decade is the build-out of broadband telecommunications and the deployment of intelligent services bundling. This paper introduces the main characteristics of an Intelligent Knowledge Management System as a multiagent system used in a Learning Control Problem (IKMSLCP), from a semantic perspective. We describe an intelligent KM framework, allowing the observer (a human agent) to learn from experience. This framework makes the system dynamic (flexible and adaptable) so it evolves, guaranteeing high levels of stability when performing his domain problem P. To capture by the agent who learn the control knowledge for solving a task-allocation problem, the control expert system uses at any time, an internal fuzzy knowledge model of the (business) process based on the last knowledge model.knowledge management, fuzzy control, semantic technologies, computational intelligence

Discrete and fuzzy dynamical genetic programming in the XCSF learning classifier system
A number of representation schemes have been presented for use within
learning classifier systems, ranging from binary encodings to neural networks.
This paper presents results from an investigation into using discrete and fuzzy
dynamical system representations within the XCSF learning classifier system. In
particular, asynchronous random Boolean networks are used to represent the
traditional condition-action production system rules in the discrete case and
asynchronous fuzzy logic networks in the continuous-valued case. It is shown
possible to use self-adaptive, open-ended evolution to design an ensemble of
such dynamical systems within XCSF to solve a number of well-known test
problems

Industrial process monitoring by means of recurrent neural networks and Self Organizing Maps
Industrial manufacturing plants often suffer from reliability problems during their day-to-day operations which
have the potential for causing a great impact on the effectiveness and performance of the overall process and the
sub-processes involved. Time-series forecasting of critical industrial signals presents itself as a way to reduce this
impact by extracting knowledge regarding the internal dynamics of the process and advice any process deviations
before it affects the productive process. In this paper, a novel industrial condition monitoring approach based on the
combination of Self Organizing Maps for operating point codification and Recurrent Neural Networks for critical signal
modeling is proposed. The combination of both methods presents a strong synergy, the information of the operating
condition given by the interpretation of the maps helps the model to improve generalization, one of the drawbacks of
recurrent networks, while assuring high accuracy and precision rates. Finally, the complete methodology, in terms of
performance and effectiveness is validated experimentally with real data from a copper rod industrial plant.Postprint (published version
