Designing Gaussian Membership Functions for Fuzzy Classifier Generated by Heuristic Possibilistic Clustering

Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of constructing Gaussian membership functions of fuzzy sets for fuzzy rules derived from the data by using heuristic algorithms of possibilistic clustering. Basic concepts of the heuristic approach to possibilistic clustering are reminded and the extended technique of constructing membership functions of fuzzy sets is proposed. An illustrative example is given and preliminary conclusions are made.
