Abstract

There is a variety of fuzzy classifiers, one of which is Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference system (ANFIS) classifier. One of the main challenges in designing such data classifiers is selection of effective and appropriate type and location of membership functions and its training method to reduce the classification error. In this paper, a new technique (based on intelligent methods) is presented and implemented to select and locate the membership functions and simultaneous training using a new method based on Inclined Planes System Optimization (IPO) to minimize errors of an ANFIS classifier for the first time. The presented method is evaluated for classification of data sets with different reference classes and different length feature vectors, which have acceptable complexity. According to the results of the research, the presented method has a higher level of accuracy and efficiency in selecting the type and location of membership functions (based on intelligent methods) and simultaneous training with IPO, compared to other methods, such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, differential evolution, and ACOR algorithms.
