It is very essential to know the daily evaporation rate of a particular area for proper cultivation. So, we need a standard prediction model which can predict the daily evaporation. In this paper, we use subtractive clustering and Fuzzy logic to predict daily evaporation of a particular area. The input data used in the paper are: maximum soil temperature, average soil temperature, average air temperature, minimum relative humidity, average relative humidity and total wind, which are related to the daily evaporation of a particular area as the output. The accuracy of output of the paper is compared with the previous model of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and we get better result towards the target value. The finding of the paper is applicable in environmental science, geological science and agriculture.展开更多

In real life we mainly use the concept in biometric identification and object detection. In this paper we use Fuzzy Weighted Rules, Fuzzy Inference System (FIS), Fuzzy C-Mean clustering (FCM), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to distinguish three types of Iris data called Iris-Setosa, Iris-Versicolor and Iris-Virginica. Each class in the data table is identified by four-dimensional vector, where vectors are used as the input variable called: Sepal Length (SL), Sepal Width (SW), Petal Length (PL) and Petal Width (PW). The combination of five machine learning methods provides above 98% accuracy of class identification.展开更多
