Abstract
This paper deals with the modelling of cotton yarn strength using genetic fuzzy expert system. Primarily a fuzzy expert system has been developed to model the cotton yarn strength from the constituent fibre parameters such as fibre strength, upper half mean length, fibre fineness and short fibre content. A binary coded genetic algorithm has been used to improve the prediction performance of the fuzzy expert system. The experimental validation confirms that the genetic fuzzy expert system has significantly better prediction accuracy and consistency than that of the fuzzy expert system.
