No full textTransparency and simplification of rule-based models for on-line adaptation.
No full textOne of the principal advantages of fuzzy rule based models over black-box approaches such as Neural Networks or polynomial models is transparency. The linguistic concept associated with the membership functions related to measured variables results in rules that are 'readable'. This quality is useful in analysing the functionality of processes through the model generated by data mining techniques. The greater the number of rules and the less descriptive the linguistic terms, the less transparent the model. The fewer rules, however, inevitably reduces the model precision with respect to the modelled process. This paper investigates the properties of Takagi-Sugeno models with either a linear function or singleton consequent with respect to model precision and transparency. The study is focused on a 'steady-state' heatexchanger model applied to the air-cooling process commonly found in heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment. The similarity measures are suitable to application to the on-line generation of these models

Identification of Evolving Rule-based Models.
No full textAn approach to identification of evolving fuzzy rule-based (eR) models is proposed. eR models implement a method for the noniterative update of both the rule-base structure and parameters by incremental unsupervised learning. The rule-base evolves by adding more informative rules than those that previously formed the model. In addition, existing rules can be replaced with new rules based on ranking using the informative potential of the data. In this way, the rule-base structure is inherited and updated when new informative data become available, rather than being completely retrained. The adaptive nature of these evolving rule-based models, in combination with the highly transparent and compact form of fuzzy rules, makes them a promising candidate for modeling and control of complex processes, competitive to neural networks. The approach has been tested on a benchmark problem and on an air-conditioning component modeling application using data from an installation serving a real building. The results illustrate the viability and efficiency of the approach. (c) IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy System

Coaggregation amongst aquatic biofilm bacteria
No full textAquatic autochthonous flora isolated directly from a water biofilm model was tested for its capacity to take part in coaggregation. Two assay methods were compared and a visual semi-quantitative method was found to be the most consistent and easy to use. All isolates demonstrated coaggregation with at least one other isolate to some extent, giving rise to visible flocs. One isolate, identified as Micrococcus luteus, was found to coaggregate with all of the other isolates to different degrees, highlighting a possible role as a bridging organism in the biofilm consortium. The addition of certain simple sugars reversed coaggregation between particular isolates suggesting that lectin-like adhesins were operating between these members of the aquatic autochthonous flora by a mechanism similar to that reported to occur between dental plaque bacteria. The time taken for coaggregation to begin varied considerably between different pairs of isolates (1-16 h), suggesting that this may play a role in determining the successional order of isolates during biofilm development.</p
