Abstract

Fuzzy regression methods are proposed considering classification structure which is obtained as a result of fuzzy clustering with respect to each attribute. The fuzzy clustering is based on dissimilarities over objects in the subspace of the object’s space. Exploiting the degree of belongingness of objects to clusters with respect to attributes, we define two fuzzy regression methods in order to estimate the fuzzy cluster loadings and weighted regression coefficients. Numerical examples show the applicability of our proposed method
