| contents | An important constraint of Fuzzy Inference Systems (FIS) is their structured rules defined based on evaluating all input variables. Indeed, the length of all fuzzy rules and the number of input variables are equal. However, in many decision-making problems evaluating some conditions on a limited set of input variables is sufficient to decide properly (unstructured rules). Therefore, this constraint limits the performance, generalization, and interpretability of the FIS. To address this issue, this paper presents a neuro-fuzzy inference system for classification applications that can select different sets of input variables for constructing each fuzzy rule. To realize this capability, a new fuzzy selector neuron with an adaptive parameter is proposed that can select input variables in the antecedent part of each fuzzy rule. Moreover, in this paper, the consequent part of the Takagi-Sugeno-Kang FIS is also changed properly to consider only the selected set of input variables. To learn the parameters of the proposed architecture, a trust-region-based learning method (General quasi-Levenberg-Marquardt (GqLM)) is proposed to minimize cross-entropy in multiclass problems. The performance of the proposed method is compared with some related previous approaches in some real-world classification problems. Based on these comparisons the proposed method has better or very close performance with a parsimonious structure consisting of unstructured fuzzy. |
