Deep combination of fuzzy inference and neural network in fuzzy inference software - FINEST
At the Laboratory for International Fuzzy Engineering Research in Japan (LIFE), we are now developing FINEST (Fuzzy Inference Environment Software with Tuning). The special features are (1) improved generalized modus ponens, (2) mechanism which can tune the inference method as well as fuzzy predicates and (3) software environment for debugging and tuning. In this paper, we give an outline of the software, and describe an important concept, a deep combination of the fuzzy inference and the neural network in FINEST, which enables FINEST to tune the inference method itself. FINEST is now being used as a tool for quantification of the meaning of natural language sentences as well as a tool for fuzzy modelling and fuzzy control.
