Abstract The brain is considered to be the most complicated organ in human body. Inferring and quantification of effective (causal) connectivity among regions of the brain is an important step in characterization of its complicated functions. The proposed method is comprised of modeling multivariate time series with Adaptive Neurofuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and carrying out a sensitivity analysis using Fuzzy network parameters as a new approach to introduce a connectivity measure for detecting causal interactions between interactive input time series. The results of simulations indicate that this method is successful in detecting causal connectivity. After validating the performance of the proposed method on synthetic linear and nonlinear interconnected time series, it is applied to epileptic intracranial Electroencephalography (EEG) signals. The result of applying the proposed method on Freiburg epileptic intracranial EEG data recorded during seizure shows that the proposed method is capable of discriminating between the seizure and non-seizure states of the brain.

A novel modified adaptive neurofuzzy inference system with smoothing treatment (MANFIS) is proposed. The MANFIS model considered the smoothing treatment of initial data basing on the adaptive neurofuzzy inference system, and we used it to predict oilfield-increased production under the well stimulation. Numerical experiments show the prediction result of the novel considering smoothing treatment is better than that without smoothing treatment. This study provides a novel and feasible method for prediction of oilfield-increased production under well stimulation, and it can be helpful in the further study of oilfield development measure planning.

Doubtlessly the first step in a river management is the precipitation modeling over the related watershed. However, considering high-stochastic property of the process, many models are still being developed in order to define such a complex phenomenon in the field of hydrologic engineering. Recently artificial neural network (ANN) as a nonlinear interextrapolator is extensively used by hydrologists for precipitation modeling as well as other fields of hydrology. In the present study, wavelet analysis combined with artificial neural network and finally was compared with adaptive neurofuzzy system to predict the precipitation in Verayneh station, Nahavand, Hamedan, Iran. For this purpose, the original time series using wavelet theory decomposed to multiple subtime series. Then, these subseries were applied as input data for artificial neural network, to predict daily precipitation, and compared with results of adaptive neurofuzzy system. The results showed that the combination of wavelet models and neural networks has a better performance than adaptive neurofuzzy system, and can be applied to predict both short- and long-term precipitations.

Surface roughness is considered as the quality index of the machine parts. Many diverse techniques have been applied in modelling metal cutting processes. Previous studies have revealed that artificial intelligence techniques are novel soft computing methods which fit the solution of nonlinear and complex problems like metal cutting processes. The present study used adaptive neurofuzzy inference system for the purpose of predicting the surface roughness when end millingTi6Al4Valloy with coated (PVD) and uncoated cutting tools under dry cutting conditions. Real experimental results have been used for training and testing ofANFISmodels, and the best model was selected based on minimum root mean square error. A generalized bell-shaped function has been adopted as a membership function for the modelling process, and its numbers were changed from 2 to 5. The findings provided evidence of the capability ofANFISin modelling surface roughness in end milling process and obtainment of good matching between experimental and predicted results.

Continuity of power supply is of utmost importance to the consumers and is only possible by coordination and reliable operation of power system components. Power transformer is such a prime equipment of the transmission and distribution system and needs to be continuously monitored for its well-being. Since ratio methods cannot provide correct diagnosis due to the borderline problems and the probability of existence of multiple faults, artificial intelligence could be the best approach. Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) interpretation may provide an insight into the developing incipient faults and is adopted as the preliminary diagnosis tool. In the proposed work, a comparison of the diagnosis ability of backpropagation (BP), radial basis function (RBF) neural network, and adaptive neurofuzzy inference system (ANFIS) has been investigated and the diagnosis results in terms of error measure, accuracy, network training time, and number of iterations are presented.

A study is presented on applications of computational intelligence (CI) techniques for monitoring and prognostics of machinery conditions. The machine condition is assessed through an energy-based feature, termed as “energy index,” extracted from the vibration signals. The progression of the “monitoring index” is predicted using the CI techniques, namely, recursive neural network (RNN), adaptive neurofuzzy inference system (ANFIS), and support vector regression (SVR). The proposed procedures have been evaluated through benchmark data sets for one-step-ahead prediction. The prognostic effectiveness of the techniques has been illustrated through vibration data set of a helicopter drivetrain system gearbox. The prediction performance of SVR was better than RNN and ANFIS. The improved performance of SVR can be attributed to its inherently better generalization capability. The training time of SVR was substantially higher than RNN and ANFIS. The results are helpful in understanding the relationship of machine conditions, the corresponding indicating feature, the level of damage or degradation, and their progression.
