Intelligent engineering-its application

Artificial intelligence (AI) neural networks (NN) and fuzzy systems (FS) have been studied in parallel and have had a measures of success in many areas in the past few decades. AI NN and FS have certainly one thing in common. They all attempt to make computer duplicate the behaviors of human intelligence, i.e. the goal of AI NN and FS is to produce intelligent machines. However, with different methodologies, the three techniques are performed with advantages and limitations respectively. The main idea of the paper is to combine all of the three techniques together, it will be called as intelligent engineering (IE), to share the advantages and avoid the limitations in solving the engineering problems. The conception of IE and other definitions have been defined and a case study on electrical load forecasting to show the powerfulness of IE is also given in this paper
