Pattern Classification

Neuro-fuzzy Methods and Their Comparison

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a unified approach for developing a fuzzy classifier and explains the advantages and disadvantages of different classifiers through extensive performance evaluation of real data sets. It thus offers new learning paradigms for analyzing neural networks and fuzzy systems, while training fuzzy classifiers. Function approximation is also treated and function approximators are compared.
