“…Fuzzy rules can be generated through training algorithms such as the descent gradient method (Zhao et al, 2008;Aflab and Kadri, 2013), the recursive least squares algorithm (Xu and Xuesong, 2014) and the orthogonal least squares method (Soltani et al, 2011). Hybrid algorithms are also interesting training methods in order to obtain simple and accurate models (Chen and Linkens, 2004;Abdelazim and Malik, 2005;Jin, 2000;Lavygina and Hodashinsky, 2011;Chuang et al, 2001Chuang et al, , 2009Rezaei Sadrabadi and Fazel Zarandi, 2011). For example, the clustering approach and the descent gradient method were used for the estimation and the reduction of fuzzy models (Chen and Linkens, 2004).…”
