Abstract :
Fuzzy systems can be used for function approximation based on a set of linguistic rules. We present a method to obtain the necessary parameters for such a fuzzy system by a neuro-fuzzy training method. The learning algorithm is able to determine the structure and the parameters of a fuzzy system from sample data. The approach is an extension to our already published NEFCON and NEFCLASS models which are used for control or classification purposes. The NEFPROX model, which is discussed in this paper is more general, and it can be used for any problem based on function approximation. We especially consider the problem to obtain interpretable fuzzy systems by learning
