On the Accuracy-Convergence Tradeoff in Sigmoid Fuzzy Cognitive Maps.

Recently, a learning procedure to improve the overall convergence of sigmoid fuzzy cognitive maps used in pattern classification was proposed. The algorithm estimates the slope of each sigmoid neuron while preserving the causal weights. This paper proposes a more realistic error function for this algorithm, which is based on 1) the dissimilarity between two consecutive responses, and 2) the dissim...
