Generating Weighted Fuzzy Rules from Training Data for Dealing with the Iris Data Classification Problem

The most important task in the design of fuzzy classification systems is to find a set of fuzzy rules from training data to deal with a specific classification problem. In this paper, we present a new method to generate weighted fuzzy rules from training data to deal with the Iris data classification problem. First, we convert the training data to fuzzy rules, and then we merge those fuzzy rules in order to reduce the number of fuzzy rules. Then, we calculate the weight of each input variable appearing in the generated fuzzy rules by the relationships of input variables.The proposed weighted fuzzy rules generation method gets a higher average classification accuracy rate than the existing methods=
