Abstract

In this paper the fusion of artificial neural networks, granular computing and learning automata theory is proposed and we present as a final result ANLAGIS, an adaptive neuron-like network based on learning automata and granular inference systems. ANLAGIS can be applied to both pattern recognition and learning control problems. Another interesting contribution of this paper is the distinction between pre-synaptic and post-synaptic learning in artificial neural networks. To illustrate the capabilities of ANLAGIS some experiments on knowledge discovery in data mining and machine learning are presented. Previous work of Jang et al. [1] on adaptive network-based fuzzy inference systems, or simply ANFIS, can be considered a precursor of ANLAGIS. The main, novel contribution of ANLAGIS is the incorporation of Learning Automata Theory within its structure.
