Evolutionary Strategy for the Fuzzy Flip-Flop Neural Networks Supervised Learning Procedure

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 7894))

Abstract

The aim of this paper is present the usage of (μ + λ) Evolutionary Strategy to evolve the architecture, and primarily the connection weights, for Fuzzy Flip-Flop Neural Networks. Due to the specific transfer function of this fuzzy-based neural network and its numerical derivatives, Back Propagation algorithm can be used for the training process, but it has very week convergence rates. Therefore Evolutionary Strategy as a heuristic learning algorithm will be applied here. In the article some numerical properties of proposed approach will be exposed. They will concern on natural example such as function approximation and data classification. It exhibits better results in terms of faster convergence and least square-error. Finally some conclusions and ideas for future work will be under discussion.
