Fuzzy Rule-Based Classification System (FRBCS) is a well known technique to deal with classification problems. Recent studies have considered the usage of the Choquet integral and its generalizations to enhance the quality of such systems. Precisely, it was applied to the Fuzzy Reasoning Method (FRM) to aggregate the fired fuzzy rules when classify new data. On the other side, the Sugeno integral, another well known aggregation operator, obtained good results when applied to brain-computer interfaces. Those facts led to the present study in which we consider the Sugeno integral in classification problems. That is, the Sugeno integral is applied in the FRM of a widely used FRBCS and its performance is analyzed over 33 different datasets from the literature. In order to show the efficiency of this new approach, the obtained results are also compared to past studies involving the application of different aggregation functions. Finally, we perform a statistical analysis of the application.
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.
