A neuro-fuzzy scheme for simultaneous feature selection and fuzzy rule-based classification

D Chakraborty, NR Pal - IEEE Transactions on neural networks, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Most methods of classification either ignore feature analysis or do it in a separate phase,
offline prior to the main classification task. This paper proposes a neuro-fuzzy scheme for …
