Homework 6 - Chapter 8

Due: Friday March 7, 2008 at 5pm

Each question is worth 2 points.

  1. Describe the function of each layer in a neuro-fuzzy system in detail. How does it implement fuzzy inference?
  2. How does a neuro-fuzzy system learn?
  3. Draw the neuro-fuzzy system that would be trained during the automatic rule discovery process for the following parameters:
  4. How does a neuro-fuzzy system identify bad rules, either given by an expert or generated by the automatic rule discovery method?
  5. Describe each layer in an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system.
  6. How does the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system differ from a neuro-fuzzy system?
  7. Describe the hybrid learning method used by an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system.
  8. Describe how a set of weights are encoded into a chromosome for an evolutionary neural network.
  9. Describe the changes made to the genetic operators crossover and mutation for an evolutionary neural network.
  10. What is a grid-fuzzy partition? How is it used in fuzzy evolution systems?
