Abstract

In this work is proposed a new approach based on Evolving Fuzzy Neural Networks (EFuNNs) to on-line evaluation of training in virtual reality worlds. EFuNNs are dynamic connectionist feed forward networks with five layers of neurons and they are adaptive rule-based systems. Results of the technique application are provided and compared with another evaluation system based on a backpropagation trained multilayer perceptron neural network.

Keywords

  • Evaluation System
  • Virtual Reality
