This article introduces a novel hybrid evolutionary algorithm for recurrent fuzzy neural systems design in applications of nonlinear systems. The hybrid learning algorithm, IEMBP-improved electromagnetism-like (EM) with back-propagation (BP) technique, combines the advantages of EM and BP algorithms which provides high-speed convergence, higher accuracy and less computational complexity (computation time in seconds). In addition, the IEMBP needs only a small population to outperform the standard EM that uses a larger population. For a recurrent neural fuzzy system, IEMBP simulates the 'attraction' and 'repulsion' of charged particles by considering each neural system parameters as a charged particle. The EM algorithm is modified in such a way that the competition selection is adopted and the random neighbourhood local search is replaced by BP without evaluations. Thus, the IEMBP algorithm combines the advantages of multi-point search, global optimisation and faster convergence. Finally, several illustration examples for nonlinear systems are shown to demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of IEMBP.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
