H-Infinity Estimation For Fuzzy Membership Function Optimization, Daniel J. Simon
H-Infinity Estimation For Fuzzy Membership Function Optimization, Daniel J. Simon
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications
Given a fuzzy logic system, how can we determine the membership functions that will result in the best performance? If we constrain the membership functions to a specific shape (e.g., triangles or trapezoids) then each membership function can be parameterized by a few variables and the membership optimization problem can be reduced to a parameter optimization problem. The parameter optimization problem can then be formulated as a nonlinear filtering problem. In this paper we solve the nonlinear filtering problem using H∞ state estimation theory. However, the membership functions that result from this approach are not (in general) sum normal. …
Training Radial Basis Neural Networks With The Extended Kalman Filter, Daniel J. Simon
Training Radial Basis Neural Networks With The Extended Kalman Filter, Daniel J. Simon
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications
Radial basis function (RBF) neural networks provide attractive possibilities for solving signal processing and pattern classification problems. Several algorithms have been proposed for choosing the RBF prototypes and training the network. The selection of the RBF prototypes and the network weights can be viewed as a system identification problem. As such, this paper proposes the use of the extended Kalman filter for the learning procedure. After the user chooses how many prototypes to include in the network, the Kalman filter simultaneously solves for the prototype vectors and the weight matrix. A decoupled extended Kalman filter is then proposed in order …
