Abstract

The present article proposes a new neuro-fuzzy-fusion (NFF) method for combining the output of a set of fuzzy classifiers in a multiple classifier system (MCS) framework. In the proposed method the output of a set of classifiers (i.e., fuzzy class labels) are fed as input to a neural network, which performs the fusion task. The proposed fusion technique is tested on a set of remote sensing images and compared with existing techniques. Experimental study revealed the improved classification capability of the NFF based MCS as it yielded consistently better results.
