Literature Review of various Fuzzy Rule based Systems
Fuzzy rule based systems (FRBSs) is a rule-based system which uses linguistic fuzzy variables as antecedents and consequent to represent the human understandable knowledge. They have been applied to various applications and areas throughout the literature. However, FRBSs suffers from many drawbacks such as uncertainty representation, high number of rules, interpretability loss, high computational time for learning etc. To overcome these issues with FRBSs, there exists many extentions of FRBSs. In this paper, we present an overview and literature review for various types and prominent areas of fuzzy systems (FRBSs) namely genetic fuzzy system (GFS), Hierarchical fuzzy system (HFS), neuro fuzzy system (NFS), evolving fuzzy system (eFS), FRBSs for big data, FRBSs for imbalanced data, interpretability in FRBSs and FRBSs which uses cluster centroids as fuzzy rule, during the years 2010-2021. GFS uses genetic/evolutionary approaches to improve the learning ability of FRBSs, HFS solve the curse of dimensionality for FRBSs, NFS improves approximation ability of FRBSs using neural networks and dynamic systems for streaming data is considered in eFS. FRBSs are seen as good solutions for big data and imbalanced data, in the recent years the interpretability in FRBSs has gained popularity due to high dimensional and big data and rules are initialized with cluster centroids to limit the number of rules in FRBSs. This paper also highlights important contributions, publication statistics and current trends in the field. The paper also addresses several open research areas which need further attention from the FRBSs research community.
