Extended Active Learning Method

Active Learning Method (ALM) is a soft computing method which is used for modeling and control, based on fuzzy logic. Although ALM has shown that it acts well in dynamic environments, its operators cannot support it very well in complex situations due to losing data. Thus ALM can find better membership functions if more appropriate operators be chosen for it. This paper substituted two new operators instead of ALM original ones; which consequently renewed finding membership functions in a way superior to conventional ALM. This new method is called Extended Active Learning Method (EALM).

Reinforcement Learning Based on Active Learning Method

In this paper, a new reinforcement learning approach is proposed which is based on a powerful concept named Active Learning Method (ALM) in modeling. ALM expresses any multi-input-single-output system as a fuzzy combination of some single-input-singleoutput systems. The proposed method is an actor-critic system similar to Generalized Approximate Reasoning based Intelligent Control (GARIC) structure to adapt the ALM by delayed reinforcement signals. Our system uses Temporal Difference (TD) learning to model the behavior of useful actions of a control system. The goodness of an action is modeled on Reward- Penalty-Plane. IDS planes will be updated according to this plane. It is shown that the system can learn with a predefined fuzzy system or without it (through random actions).

Memristor Crossbar-based Hardware Implementation of Fuzzy Membership Functions

In May 1, 2008, researchers at Hewlett Packard (HP) announced the first physical realization of a fundamental circuit element called memristor that attracted so much interest worldwide. This newly found element can easily be combined with crossbar interconnect technology which this new structure has opened a new field in designing configurable or programmable electronic systems. These systems in return can have applications in signal processing and artificial intelligence. In this paper, based on the simple memristor crossbar structure, we propose new and simple circuits for hardware implementation of fuzzy membership functions. In our proposed circuits, these fuzzy membership functions can have any shapes and resolutions. In addition, these circuits can be used as a basis in the construction of evolutionary systems.

Memristor-based Circuits for Performing Basic Arithmetic Operations

In almost all of the currently working circuits, especially in analog circuits implementing signal processing applications, basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication, addition, subtraction and division are performed on values which are represented by voltages or currents. However, in this paper, we propose a new and simple method for performing analog arithmetic operations which in this scheme, signals are represented and stored through a memristance of the newly found circuit element, i.e. memristor, instead of voltage or current. Some of these operators such as divider and multiplier are much simpler and faster than their equivalent voltage-based circuits and they require less chip area. In addition, a new circuit is designed for programming the memristance of the memristor with predetermined analog value. Presented simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and the accuracy of the proposed circuits.
