SC: Question Banks on Neuro-fuzzy modeling

1. What is meant by dilemma between interpretability and precision?
- The learning process often follows the diagonal route of improving mapping precision and
deteriorating interpretability at the same time. This is referred as dilemma between interpretability and
precision.

2. What is linguistic information? What is numerical information? 74. What is knowledge acquisition?
- An experienced human operator can usually summarize his or her reasoning
process in arriving at final control actions or decisions as a set of fuzzy if-then rules with
imprecise but correct membership functions.
- When a human operator is working, it is possible to record the sensor data
observed by the human and the humans corresponding actions as a set of desired input
output data pairs.
- Acquisition of human operators knowledge about how to control a system and generates a set
of fuzzy if-then rules as the backbone for a fuzzy controller that behaves like the original human
operator.

3. What is fuzzy inference systems? What are the three conceptual components of the basic structure of
a fuzzy inference system?
- It is a popular computing frame work based on the concepts of fuzzy set theory, fuzzy if-then
rule, and fuzzy reasoning.
- Rule base, data base and reasoning mechanism.

4. What is inference system? What are the other names of fuzzy inference system?
- Fuzzy-rule based system, fuzzy expert system, fuzzy model, fuzzy associative memory, fuzzy
logic controller and fuzzy system.
