Abstract

In this article, a hybrid learning neuro-fuzzy inference system (HLNFIS) with a new inference mechanism is proposed for system modeling. In the HLNFIS, the incoming signal is fuzzified by the proposed improved Gaussian membership function (IGMF), which is derived from two standard Gaussian functions. With the premise construction with IGMFs, the system inference ability can be upgraded. The fuzzy inference processor, which involves both numerical and linguistic reasoning, is introduced in rule base construction. For effective parameter learning, the hybrid algorithm of random optimization (RO) and least square estimation (LSE) is exploited, where the premise and the consequence parameters of are updated by RO and LSE, respectively. To validate the feasibility and the potential of the proposed approach, three examples of system modeling are conducted. Through experimental results and comparisons the proposed HLNFIS shows excellent performance for complex modeling.
