Optimal Fuzzy Model Construction with Statistical Information using Genetic Algorithm
Fuzzy rule based models have a capability to approximate any continuous
function to any degree of accuracy on a compact domain. The majority of FLC
design process relies on heuristic knowledge of experience operators. In order
to make the design process automatic we present a genetic approach to learn
fuzzy rules as well as membership function parameters. Moreover, several
statistical information criteria such as the Akaike information criterion
(AIC), the Bhansali-Downham information criterion (BDIC), and the
Schwarz-Rissanen information criterion (SRIC) are used to construct optimal
fuzzy models by reducing fuzzy rules. A genetic scheme is used to design
Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) model for identification of the antecedent rule
parameters and the identification of the consequent parameters. Computer
simulations are presented confirming the performance of the constructed fuzzy
logic controller
HapPart: partitioning algorithm for multiple haplotyping from haplotype conflict graph
Each chromosome in the human genome has two copies. The haplotype assembly challenge entails reconstructing two haplotypes (chromosomes) using aligned fragments genomic sequence. Plants viz. wheat, paddy and banana have more than two chromosomes. Multiple haplotype reconstruction has been a major research topic. For reconstructing multiple haplotypes for a polyploid organism, several approaches have been designed. The researchers are still fascinated to the computational challenge. This article introduces a partitioning algorithm, HapPart for dividing the fragments into k-groups focusing on reducing the computational time. HapPart uses minimum error correction curve to determine the value of k at which the growth of gain measures for two consecutive values of k-multiplied by its diversity is maximum. Haplotype conflict graph is used for constructing all possible number of groups. The dissimilarity between two haplotypes represents the distance between two nodes in graph. For merging two nodes with the minimum distance between them this algorithm ensures minimum error among fragments in same group. Experimental results on real and simulated data show that HapPart can partition fragments efficiently and with less computational time
EVOLUTIONARY TUNING OF FUZZY RULE BASE SYSTEMS FOR NONLINEAR SYSTEM MODELLING AND CONTROL
ABSTRACT Fuzzy systems generally works based on expert knowledge base. Fuzzy Expert knowledge base derived from the heuristic knowledge of experts or experience operators in the form of fuzzy control rules and membership functions (MF
Bangla handwritten character recognition using convolutional neural network
Handwritten character recognition complexity varies among different languages due to distinct shapes, strokes and number of characters. Numerous works in handwritten character recognition are available for English with respect to other major languages such as Bangla. Existing methods use distinct feature extraction techniques and various classification tools in their recognition schemes. Recently, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is found efficient for English handwritten character recognition. In this paper, a CNN based Bangla handwritten character recognition is investigated. The proposed method normalizes the written character images and then employ CNN to classify individual characters. It does not employ any feature extraction method like other related works. 20000 handwritten characters with different shapes and variations are used in this study. The proposed method is shown satisfactory recognition accuracy and outperformed some other prominent exiting methods
