Estudio comparativo entre máquinas de soporte vectorial multiclase, redes neuronales artificiales y sistema de inferencia neuro-difuso auto organizado para problemas de clasificación

Abstract

In this paper an explanation of the structure and how a self-organized neuro-fuzzy inference system (SONFIS) works, is given with detail. The study uses three classification problems (Fisher iris, Breast Cancer and Human Activities) to then compare the results with well-known universal classifiers such as artificial neural networks (ANN) and multiclass support vector machines (SVM). A brief description of each of these methods is presented. The results show that SONFIS has a similar, and sometimes better, performance than ANN and SVM with the advantage of generating a rule basis that helps understanding the inner structure of the problem.
