Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new method for weighted fuzzy interpolative reasoning in sparse fuzzy rule-based systems based on piecewise fuzzy entropies of fuzzy sets. First, the proposed method uses the representative values of antecedent fuzzy sets, the representative values of observation fuzzy sets, and the representative values of consequence fuzzy sets of fuzzy rules to get the characteristic points of the fuzzy interpolative result represented by a fuzzy set. Then, it calculates the piecewise fuzzy entropies between any two characteristic points of the antecedent fuzzy sets, the piecewise fuzzy entropies between any two characteristic points of the observation fuzzy sets, and the piecewise fuzzy entropies between any two characteristic points of the consequence fuzzy sets of the fuzzy rules, respectively. Then, it calculates the weights of the antecedent fuzzy sets of each fuzzy rule, respectively, and calculates the weight of each fuzzy rule. Then, it calculates the piecewise fuzzy entropies between any two characteristic points of the fuzzy interpolative result. Finally, it uses the secant method to calculate the degree of membership of each obtained characteristic point of the fuzzy interpolative result. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing methods for dealing with the multivariate regression problems, the Mackey-Glass chaotic time series prediction problem, and the time series prediction problems.
