A Fuzzy ARTMAP Nonparametric Probability Estimator For Nonstationary Pattern Recognition Problem

Abstract

An incremental, nonparametric probability estimation procedure using the fuzzy ARTMAP neural network is introduced. In slow-learning mode, fuzzy ARTMAP searches for patterns of data on which to build ever more accurate estimates. In max-nodes mode, the network initially learns a fixed number of categories, and weights are then adjusted gradually.
