Abstract
- We propose a hybrid architecture based on a combination of fuzzy systems and polynomial neural networks. The resulting Hybrid Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (HFPNN) dwells on the ideas of fuzzy rule-based computing and polynomial neural networks. The structure of the network comprises of fuzzy polynomial neurons (FPNs) forming the nodes of the first (input) layer of the HFPNN and polynomial neurons (PNs) that are located in the consecutive layers of the network. In the FPN (that forms a fuzzy inference system), the generic rules assume the form "if A then y = P(x)" where A is a fuzzy relation in the condition space while P(x) is a polynomial standing in the conclusion part of the rule. The conclusion part of the rules, especially the regression polynomial uses several types of high-order polynomials such as constant, linear, quadratic, and modified quadratic. As the premise part of the rules, both triangular and Gaussian-like membership functions are considered. Each PN of the network realizes a polynomial type of partial description (PD) of the mapping between input and out variables. HFPNN is a flexible neural architecture whose structure is based on the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) and developed through learning. In particular, the number of layers of the PNN is not fixed in advance but is generated in a dynamic way. The experimental part of the study involves two representative numerical examples such as chaotic time series and Box-Jenkins gas furnace data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
