This paper presents an intelligent filter design method with a fixed-point digital signal processor (DSP) and illustrates its performance on the application of active noise cancellation (ANC) system. The proposed designing method uses magnitude and phase compensation techniques to eliminate the errors associated with the nonlinear distortion of analog devices in the application, and hence, to improve the ANC performance. The quantization and rounding errors associated with the fixed-point DSP are also compensated for. Several experiments verify the enhancement.

This paper describes a methodology for financial prediction by using an advanced paradigm from computational intelligence - Chaotic Oscillatory-based Neural Networks (CONN) and aid with fuzzy membership function. The method uses financial market data to predict market trends over a certain period of time. This approach may have a wide variety of applications but from financial forecasting perspective, it can be used to identify and forecast market patterns for providing valuable and useful advices to investors for making investment decisions.

Automatic finding exact location of facial salient points under translation, rotation and changing lightning illumination is a considerable task in face image processing. This paper presents a multistage procedure for finding landmark points on a rigid object like human face. Gabor filter jets make EBGM, very effective but computationally expensive. In proposed method, searching landmark points using Gabor filter jets is optimized by using particle swarm optimization (PSO) and similarity between model jet and extracted jet as cost function. After locating first landmark, the location of next landmark is estimated and then is refined by local search criteria (FLS) until localizing of all desired 5 landmarks. Model jets are used for accounting pixels and can be extracted manually from landmark points of same identity for more robustness and accuracy. Results based on the proposed approach are included to prove the accuracy and low computational cost of proposed method comparing the exhaustive search.

PCA-guided k-Means is a technique for analytically estimating a relaxed solution for k-Means clustering, while the derived cluster indicator is a rotated solution and the rotation matrix cannot be explicitly estimated. Then, an approach such as visualization by ordering of samples in connectivity matrices is applied for visually accessing cluster structures. This paper introduces a technique for estimating a rotation matrix by Procrustean transformation of principal component scores in order to select the optimal solution from multiple solutions derived by k-Means, and proposes a cluster validation measure calculating the deviation between k-Means solutions and a re-constructed membership indicator matrix.

Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is gaining much attention recently because of its many important applications in transportation, to improve road safety, reduce traffic congestion, to enable efficient traffic management etc. However, there are several technical issues to be addressed for its effective deployment. Stability in communication in VANET is difficult to achieve due to rapid network changes. Restoration is inefficient while using traditional protocols based on broadcast storm. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive protocol to improve performance for on road safety alert application in VANET. It can alleviate the broadcast storm problem using adaptive wait-windows and adaptive probability to transmit. Simulation shows that our proposed approach has better performances in terms of number of collision, success rate, and delay, when compared with other existing protocols.

In the multi-path planning, every autonomous vehicle normally receives her path from the server and sends her position to the server. If server estimates collision between two vehicles, then the path should be re-planned by an algorithm in the server. Path could be compensated by fuzzy expert systems (FESs) that is designed using heuristic method for collision avoidance in multi-path planning. The server calculates the assistance via point and send to each vehicle. The algorithm was evaluated it's stability by simulation test, and then experimented by real autonomous vehicle. The experimental result proved this collision avoidance algorithm is good for multi-path planning.

In fuzzy abduction, one needs to evaluate the membership distribution of the premise (antecedent clause), when the membership distribution of the consequent clause, and the fuzzy implication relations between the antecedent and the consequent clauses are provided. The paper formulates and solves the problem of fuzzy abduction by using type-2 fuzzy sets. It presumes background knowledge about the primary and the secondary antecedent to consequent implication relations to uniquely determine the type-2 fuzzy set corresponding to the antecedent clause, when the same for the consequent clause is provided. The proposed methodology of abduction would serve many interesting applications on predictions, forecasting, and diagnosis, where the environmental factor can be modeled with type-2 secondary distributions.

This paper presents experimental results on the utilization of fuzzy clustering as a discretization technique for purpose of solar images recognition. By extracting texture features from our solar images, and consequently applying fuzzy clustering techniques on these features, we were able to determine what clustering algorithm and what algorithm's initialization parameters produced the best data discretization. Based on these results we discretized some of our texture features and ran them on two different classifiers comparing how well the classifiers performed on our original data versus the discretized data. Our experimental results demonstrate that discretization of our data via fuzzy clustering carries significant potential since on our classifiers produced similar results on the original and the discretized data, and the reduction of storage space achieved through cluster-based discretization has been very significant.

Interactive Genetic Algorithm (iGA) is one of evolutionary computations in which the design candidates are evaluated by human. Using iGA, the sensibility and subjective feelings of humans can be optimized by learning the user's evaluation of presented individuals. In this research, iGA was applied to product recommendation on shopping sites. One of the most difficult points to be addressed in construction of a product recommendation system is to taking a long time to extract and assign values to design variables from all of the actual products on the site. It is also difficult to define product design variables appropriately. To address these problems, we propose a method to generate design variables automatically based on a lot of users' preference data on the Web. We constructed the design variables using the relevance of products obtained by Collaborative Filtering and discussed them. Through the simulation experiments, the effectiveness of the proposed method is discussed.

An evaluation of survey by fuzzy linguistics has been conducted using both the signed distance and centroid method. As to both methods, the proposed approaches, different from conventional survey algorithms via questionnaire rating item by linguistic variables, possessing the vague nature, we employed fuzzy sense of sampling to express the degree of interviewee's feelings based on his own concept, the result will be closer to interviewee's real thought. In this study, we re-model the previous method and use the signed distance method which would be effective and reliable to do aggregated assessment analysis.
