Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊科學學系 === 82 === In NN-based recognition systems, the recognition rates dependent on the quality of feature extraction which is usually determined by human experts and the models are very complex because they need multi-layered transformation. Since pattern recognition is an essential part in many applications, automating this task becomes more and more important. A neuro- fuzzy model of adaptive learning and feature detection, called the fuzzy-filtered neural networks, has been successfully applied to the problem of plasma spectrum analysis. In this thesis, we extend the model to another problem, the recognition of hand-written numerals, to demonstrate its generality. We proposer three versions of the architecture, which use one- dimensional fuzzy filters, two-dimensional fuzzy filters, and genetic-algorithm-based fuzzy filters, respectively, as feature detectors. All three versions smoothly and automatically handle issues of a real-world pattern recognition problem such as drifting and noise. Simulation results show that the proposed model is an efficient architecture for achieving high recognition accuracy.
