A genetic-algorithm-based method for exclusion of the potential redundant if-then fuzzy rules that have been extracted from numerical input-output data is proposed. The main idea is the input-space separation into activation rectangles, corresponding to certain output intervals. The generation of fu

✦ Synopsis
In our previous papers, fuzzy model identification methods were discussed. The bacterial evolutionary algorithm for extracting fuzzy rule base from a training set was presented. The Levenberg-Marquardt method was also proposed for determining membership functions in fuzzy systems. The combination of the evolutionary and the gradient-based learning techniques is usually called memetic algorithm. In this paper, a new kind of memetic algorithm, the bacterial memetic algorithm, is introduced for fuzzy rule extraction. The paper presents how the bacterial evolutionary algorithm can be improved with the Levenberg-Marquardt technique.

This paper shows how a small number of simple fuzzy if-then rules can be selected for pattern classiÿcation problems with many continuous attributes. Our approach consists of two phases: candidate rule generation by rule evaluation measures in data mining and rule selection by multi-objective evolut
In this paper, we examine the classification performance of fuzzy if-then rules selected by a GA-based multi-objective rule selection method. This rule selection method can be applied to high-dimensional pattern classification problems with many continuous attributes by restricting the number of ant
