Neuro-fuzzy Systems (Hardcover)

This volume seeks to reflect the trend in intelligent systems research towards the integration of neural networks and fuzzy technology. Systems exploiting these two techniques have the advantage of becoming both smarter and more applicable. The book explains the general principles of neuro-fuzzy development as a means of enhancing the performance of a control or data analysis system. A brief tutorial on the basic characteristics of neural and fuzzy technology is followed by a broad study of the key neuro-fuzzy approaches. The text highlights some concepts which underpin the development of the authors' own simulation model, a hybrid neural fuzzy controller.
