Intelligent Type-2 Fuzzy Inference for Web Information Search Task

  • Chapter
Soft Computing for Information Processing and Analysis

Part of the book series: Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing ((STUDFUZZ,volume 164))

Abstract

This chapter focuses on using interval TSK type-2 fuzzy inference to execute a Web Information Search Task (WIST). Type-2 fuzzy inference is helpful to address the “rule uncertainty problem” to improve the performance of a WIST because less prediction error can be achieved. On the other hand, type-2 fuzzy inference is generally computational intensive; this chapter proposes a simple idea to simplify the computation for interval TSK type-2 fuzzy inference.
