Abstract
Fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) provide a rapid and efficient approach for system modeling and simulation. The literature demonstrates numerous successful applications of FCMs in identifying failure modes. The standard process of failure mode identification using FCMs involves monitoring crucial concept/node values for excesses. Threshold functions are used to limit the value of nodes within a pre-specified range, which is usually [0, 1] or [-1, + 1]. However, traditional FCMs using the tanh threshold function possess two crucial drawbacks for this particular.Purpose(i) a tendency to reduce the values of state vector components, and (ii) the potential inability to reach a limit state with clearly identifiable failure states. The reason for this is the inherent mathematical nature of the tanh function in being asymptotic to the horizontal line demarcating the edge of the specified range. To overcome these limitations, this paper introduces a novel modified tanh threshold function that effectively addresses both issues.
期刊介绍：
Neural Processing Letters is an international journal publishing research results and innovative ideas on all aspects of artificial neural networks. Coverage includes theoretical developments, biological models, new formal modes, learning, applications, software and hardware developments, and prospective researches.
The journal promotes fast exchange of information in the community of neural network researchers and users. The resurgence of interest in the field of artificial neural networks since the beginning of the 1980s is coupled to tremendous research activity in specialized or multidisciplinary groups. Research, however, is not possible without good communication between people and the exchange of information, especially in a field covering such different areas; fast communication is also a key aspect, and this is the reason for Neural Processing Letters
