Agenda
Abstract of the talk:
We are living in an era where Artificial Intelligence (AI) has started to scratch the surface of its true potential. Not only does AI create the possibility of disrupting industries and transforming the workplace, but it can also address some of society’s biggest challenges. Autonomous vehicles may save tens of thousands of lives and increase mobility for the elderly and the disabled. Precision medicine may unlock tailored individual treatment that extends life. Smart buildings may help reduce carbon emissions and save energy. These are just a few of the potential benefits that AI promises, and is starting to deliver upon. Even with the advances and success of deep learning algorithms in various applications like speech recognition, image classification, handwriting recognition, fraud detection, etc., the deep learning model has still some limitations. Due to advancements in fuzzy logic and systems in the past decades, handling such complex data has become easy. In effect, the addition of fuzziness into the model of a neuron makes it better to adapt the behavior of underlying systems that are imprecisely defined through their high degree of complexity. The linguistic and numeric forms of data can be handled together by a Deep Fuzzy Network (DFN). DFN is developed using both Mamdani and Takagi-Sugeno FIS where nodes of hidden layers act as Mamdani or Takagi-Sugeno FIS. DFN has high robustness towards uncertainties due to vagueness, imprecision, and ambiguity. There is a wide scope to develop very effective machine learning architectures based on DFNs with high abstraction quality, high robustness towards uncertainty due to vagueness, ambiguity, and imprecision as well as uncertainty due to randomness and intuitively intelligible to human beings in terms of design and working.
