A Recurrent Functional-Link-Based Neural Fuzzy System and Its Applications

In this paper, a recurrent functional-link-based neural fuzzy system (RFLNFS) is proposed for prediction of time sequence and skin color detection. The proposed RFLNFS model uses functional link neural network as the consequent part of fuzzy rules. The RFLNFS model can generate the consequent part of a nonlinear combination of the input variables. The recurrent network is embedded in the RFLNFS by adding feedback connections in the second layer, where the feedback units act as memory elements. An online learning algorithm, which consists of structure learning and parameter learning, is also presented. Finally, the RFLNFS is applied to two simulations. The simulation results of the dynamic system modeling have shown that the RFLNFS model can solve the temporal problem and the RFLNFS model has superior performance than other models
