Abstract

Choquet Integral Agent Network (CHIAN) is proposed as a method realizing flexible information fusion which is constructed by using fuzzy measure and Choquet integrals. In case of multi-layered network structure, CHIAN can employ back-propagation algorithms-like concept for learning process. However, the back-propagation methods have some limitations such as trapping at local minima and network paralysis. Due to genetic algorithms (GA) mechanism, it has the characteristics of hill climbing, and thus can overcome the difficulty of trapping at local minima; consequently it might reduce network paralysis. This paper aims at proposing to tune CHIAN learning parameters, i.e., learning rate and momentum coefficient by genetic algorithms for improving CHIAN as classifier, pattern recognition, and information fusion. The results show that the network evolved GA requires fewer training cycles than the network which the learning parameters are intuitively given.
