Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to apply the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model techniques in order to treat and classify textual data sets with and without noise. A comparative study is done in order to select the most accurate T-S algorithm in the textual data sets.
Design/methodology/approach
From a survey about what has been termed the “Tunisian Revolution,” the authors collect a textual data set from a questionnaire targeted at students. Five clustering algorithms are mainly applied: the Gath-Geva (G-G) algorithm, the modified G-G algorithm, the fuzzy c-means algorithm and the kernel fuzzy c-means algorithm. The authors examine the performances of the four clustering algorithms and select the most reliable one to cluster textual data.
Findings
The proposed methodology was to cluster textual data based on the T-S fuzzy model. On one hand, the results obtained using the T-S models are in the form of numerical relationships between selected keywords and the rest of words constituting a text. Consequently, it allows the authors to interpret these results not only qualitatively but also quantitatively. On the other hand, the proposed method is applied for clustering text taking into account the noise.
Originality/value
The originality comes from the fact that the authors validate some economical results based on textual data, even if they have not been written by experts in the linguistic fields. In addition, the results obtained in this study are easy and simple to interpret by the analysts.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to present a new methodology for identification of the parameters of the local linear Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy models using weighted recursive least squares. The weighted recursive least squares (WRLS) is sensitive to initialization which leads to no converge. In order to overcome this problem, Euclidean particle swarm optimization (EPSO) is employed to optimize the initial states of WRLS. Finally, validation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed algorithm. A comparative study is presented. Validation results involving simulations of numerical examples and the liquid level process have demonstrated the practicality of the algorithm.
Design/methodology/approach
A new method for nonlinear system modelling. The proposed algorithm is employed to optimize the initial states of WRLS algorithm in two phases of learning algorithm.
Findings
The results obtained using this novel approach were comparable with other modeling approaches reported in the literature. The proposed algorithm is able to handle various types of modeling problems with high accuracy.
Originality/value
In this paper, a new method is employed to optimize the initial states of WRLS algorithm in two phases of the learning algorithm.

Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to propose a new type of predictive fuzzy controller. The desired nonlinear system behavior is described by a set of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) model. However, due to the complexity of the real processes, obtaining a high quality control with a short settle time, a periodical step response and zero steady-state error is often a difficult task. Indeed, conventional model predictive control (MPC) attempts to minimize a quadratic cost over an extended control horizon. Then, the MPC is insufficient to adapt to changes in system dynamics which have characteristics of complex constraints. In addition, it is shown that the clustering algorithm is sensitive to random initialization and may affect the quality of obtaining predictive fuzzy controller. In order to overcome these problems, chaos particle swarm optimization (CPSO) is used to perform model predictive controller for nonlinear process with constraints. The practicality and effectiveness of the identification and control scheme is demonstrated by simulation results involving simulations of a continuous stirred-tank reactor.
Design/methodology/approach
A new type of predictive fuzzy controller. The proposed algorithm based on CPSO is used to perform model predictive controller for nonlinear process with constraints.
Findings
The results obtained using this the approach were comparable with other modeling approaches reported in the literature. The proposed control scheme has been show favorable results either in the absence or in the presence of disturbance compared with the other techniques. It confirms the usefulness and robustness of the proposed controller.
Originality/value
This paper presents an intelligent model predictive controller MPC based on CPSO (MPC-CPSO) for T-S fuzzy modeling with constraints.
