Abstract

In this paper, a meta-heuristic algorithm (electromagnetism-like mechanism, EM) for fuzzy neural network training is introduced. Electromagnetism-like mechanism simulates the electromagnetism theory of physics by considering each sample point to be an electrical charge. The EM algorithm utilizes an attraction-repulsion mechanism to move the sample points towards the optimum. Besides, the electromagnetism-like mechanism is not easily falling into local optimum. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to use the electromagnetism-like mechanism to develop the fuzzy neural networks (EMFNN), and employ this EMFNN to train fuzzy if-then rules. According to the case, the EMFNN could successfully generalize new fuzzy if-then rules.
