Abstract

In this paper, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is developed for effective prediction of yarn tenacity and unevenness based on a set of six input cotton fibre properties, i.e. fibre strength, fibre elongation, upper half mean length, uniformity index, fineness and short fibre content. The ANFIS model integrates the advantageous features of both the systems of fuzzy control and neural network. A neural network is applied with learning and computational capability in fuzzy control. On the other hand, fuzzy control provides high level of knowledge and fuzzy rules for use in the neural network. Using a past experimental dataset, the developed ANFIS model is trained and subsequently tested to envisage yarn tenacity and unevenness values. Its prediction performance is validated with respect to five statistical metrics, i.e. correlation coefficient, mean absolute percentage error, root-mean-square error, coefficient of efficiency and variance performance index, and is also contrasted against other prediction tools, like multivariate regression analysis, artificial neural network, fuzzy logic and support vector machine. Based on their acceptable values, it can be concluded that the ANFIS models can be effectively employed for prediction of diverse yarn quality characteristics while treating fibre properties as the input variables.
