Learning fuzzy cognitive maps with required precision using genetic algorithm approach

Fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) are a powerful and convenient tool for describing and analysing dynamic systems. Their generic design is performed manually, exploits expert knowledge and is quite tedious, especially in the case of larger systems. This shortcoming is alleviated by completing the design of FCMs through learning carried out on experimental data. Comprehensive experiments reveal that this approach helps design models of required accuracy in an automated manner.
