Abstract
In this paper, we propose an intelligent system that adapts itself to a user’s characteristics or habits. The proposed intelligent system is composed of two Learning Vector Quantisation (LVQ) networks, commonly used in the fields of pattern recognition and signal processing. From the external condition of the plant, the first LVQ network learns to recognise the pattern of the sensed signal, and then aids the second LVQ to learn the user’s characteristics or habits so as to automatically produce the user’s favoured output. To verify the usefulness of the proposed method, we simulated and experimented with a variable illuminator. Both simulation and experimental results showed that the proposed intelligent system learns to automatically produce the illuminator output that the user most favours for the circumstances.
