Abstract

Fuzzy spiking neural P systems (in short, FSN P systems) are a novel class of distributed parallel computing models, which can model fuzzy production rules and apply their dynamic firing mechanism to achieve fuzzy reasoning. However, these systems lack adaptive/learning ability. Addressing this problem, a class of FSN P systems are proposed by introducing some new features, called adaptive fuzzy spiking neural P systems (in short, AFSN P systems). AFSN P systems not only can model weighted fuzzy production rules in fuzzy knowledge base but also can perform dynamically fuzzy reasoning. It is important to note that AFSN P systems have learning ability like neural networks. Based on neuron's firing mechanisms, a fuzzy reasoning algorithm and a learning algorithm are developed. Moreover, an example is included to illustrate the learning ability of AFSN P systems.
