Abstract:
Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS)
are increasingly becoming popular in the modern world.
This is due to their ability to model or represent vagueness
in day to day activities or processes. These systems have
the potential to adaptively control processes that present a
difficulty to the conventional control techniques due to their
ability to predict the likely outcome given a set of conditions
or inputs. This paper looks at ANFIS and its applications
in multidisciplinary fields and specifically, its use in control
of machining processes. Some potential areas of application
ANFIS are highlighted.
