In recent years Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCM) has become a useful Soft Computing technique for modeling and simulation. They are connectionist and recurrent structures involving concepts describing the system behavior, and causal connections. This paper describes two abstract models based on Swarm Intelligence for learning parameters characterizing FCM, which is a central issue on this field. At the end, we obtain accurate maps, allowing the simulation of the system and also the extraction of relevant knowledge associated with underlying patterns.
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.
