A deep convolutional fuzzy system (DCFS) on a high-dimensional input space is a multi-layer connection of many low-dimensional fuzzy systems, where the input variables to the low-dimensional fuzzy systems are selected through a moving window across the input spaces of the layers. To design the DCFS based on input-outpu…
Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy systems are very useful machine learning models for regression problems.
