Evolutionary fuzzy learning for Chinese medicine liver syndrome differentiation by Jia-Yu Yan, Peng-Wei Zhang, Wei-Guo Sheng, Jun-Ping Shi, Wei Ni, Li Li, Yu-Jun Zheng

“…To effectively overcome the uncertainty and improve the interpretability, we proposed an evolutionary fuzzy learning method for syndrome differentiation of the TCM liver system, which used neuro-fuzzy inference systems to infer the severity of six typical syndromes (liver depression, liver blood deficiency, liver yin deficiency, liver-fire, liver-cold, and damp-heat liver-gallbladder) based on a wide set of symptoms as input features. To determine the most appropriate fuzzy membership functions of the fuzzy learning machines, an evolutionary algorithm was employed to optimize the types and parameters of the fuzzy functions simultaneously. …”
