Evolutionary optimization in ANFIS for intelligent navigation system

Abstract

Global Positioning System (GPS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS) data can be integrated to provide a reliable navigation.This paper presents an approach of solving GPS/INS data integration problem, without the need of modeling the characteristics of GPS and INS sensors. Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques for an intelligent navigation system has been developed as an alternative to the conventional Kalman filter approach, in which it is mandatory to model the entire system. Many AI techniques have been implemented for the same, in which the use of ANFIS instead of neural networks and fuzzy logic has been widely implemented. In this paper Memetic optimization on ANFIS (MANFIS) has been proposed which outperforms Genetically optimized ANFIS (GANFIS).
