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.
