Training ANFIS structure with modified PSO algorithm

This paper introduces a new approach for training the adaptive network based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). The previous works emphasized on gradient base method or least square (LS) based method. In this study we apply one of the swarm intelligent branches, named particle swarm optimization (PSO) with some modification in it to the training of all parameters of ANFIS structure. These modifications are inspired by natural evolutions. Finally the method is applied to the identification of nonlinear dynamical system and is compared with basic PSO and showed quite satisfactory results.
