Fractional Order Learning Methods for Nonlinear System Identification Based on Fuzzy Neural Network

. This paper focuses on neural network-based learning methods for identifying nonlinear dynamic systems. The Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model is introduced to represent nonlinear systems in a linear way. Fractional calculus is integrated to minimize the cost function, yielding a fractional-order learning algorithm that can derive optimal parameters in the T-S fuzzy model. The proposed algorithm is evaluated by comparing it with an integer-order method for identifying numerical nonlinear systems and a water quality system. Both evaluations demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can e(cid:11)ectively reduce errors and improve model accuracy.
