By performing analysis of this type for several linguistic data descriptors one can develop a collection of such descriptors that cover the entire data space, see Fig. 6.25.
We may eventually require that this collection should cover the entire map to a high extent, meaning that where N(i, j, 6.9. Hybrid fuzzy neural computing structuresWhen it comes to the combination of the technologies of fuzzy sets and neural networks, we can distinguish two key facets one should take into account:
Fig. 6.26 emphasizes two main features that are essential in establishing any vital relationship between fuzzy and neural computation. These are exemplified in the sense of plasticity and explicit knowledge representation of the resulting neuro-fuzzy structure.
The strength of the interaction itself can vary from the level at which the technology of fuzzy sets and neurocomputing are combined and co - exist to the highest one where there exists a genuine fusion between them. 6.9.1. Architectures of hybrid fuzzy neural systemsThe essence of the architectural interaction of fuzzy sets and neural networks is shown in Fig. 6.27. To a significant extent the form of interaction is similar to that encountered in fuzzy modelling (Pedrycz, 1995), cf. Fig. 6.28.
Fuzzy sets are more visible at the input and output layers of any multilayer structure of the network. The role of these layers is much more oriented toward capturing the semantics of data rather than focusing on pure and context-free numeric processing.
6.9.2. Temporal aspects of interaction in fuzzy-neural systemsThe temporal aspects of interaction arise when dealing with the various levels of intensity of learning. Again the updates of the connections are much more vigorous at the hidden layers - we conclude that their plasticity is higher than the others situated close to the input and output layers. Again, this concurs with our observations that the input and output layer are associated with the predetermined activity interacting with the environment. The already established point of view is far more solid than the other connections of the network. Any changes at this level can be exercised once all other learning possibilities have been already exhausted.
6.10. ConclusionsThis chapter was devoted to the development of interaction between fuzzy sets and the technology of neural networks. The literature delivers an abundance of neurofuzzy architectures. To fully benefit from them rather than being mislead by their variety, it is important to establish a transparent taxonomy. We attempted to take such a systematic look at these approaches by identifying various levels of synergy as well as formulating the areas of interaction producing genuine enhancements of the existing neural or fuzzy systems. Fig. 6. 30 summarizes a variety of symbiotic links between fuzzy sets and neurocomputing. One should stress
6.11. Problems6.1. Analyze the role of the steepness factor in the sigmoidal nonlinearity of the neuron in the learning algorithm. Propose learning metarules in the form:
6.2. Discuss the main differences between the possibility - necessity preprocessing layer of a neural network and the same layer implementing computations with a compatibility measure. Outline advantages and disadvantages of these two approaches. 6.3. Given is a training set of heterogeneous data (x(k), y(k)) in the form Here 6.4. It is obvious that a linearly nonseparable Exclusive - OR problem requires a neural network with a hidden layer. Could you avoid it by transforming the training data in a nonlinear way by using appropriate fuzzy sets or fuzzy relations? 6.5. Interpret the following small neural network, Fig. 6.31, by generating corresponding if - then rules. Each neuron is equipped with a threshold nonlinear element meaning that its output is equal to 1 if the weighted sum of its inputs is equal or exceeds T; otherwise the neuron is turned off (the output is zero). The threshold level is equal to 0.5.
