Machine learning can predict disease manifestations and outcomes in lymphangioleiomyomatosis (2020)
Journal Article
Chernbumroong, S., Johnson, J., Gupta, N., Miller, S., Mccormack, F. X., Garibaldi, J. M., & Johnson, S. R. (2021). Machine learning can predict disease manifestations and outcomes in lymphangioleiomyomatosis. European Respiratory Journal, 57(6), Article 2003036. https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.03036-2020

Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare multisystem disease with variable clinical manifestations and differing rates of progression that make management decisions and giving prognostic advice difficult. We used machine learning to ident... Read More about Machine learning can predict disease manifestations and outcomes in lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

A Fast Inference and Type-Reduction Process for Constrained Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Systems (2020)
Journal Article
D'Alterio, P., Garibaldi, J. M., John, R. I., & Wagner, C. (2021). A Fast Inference and Type-Reduction Process for Constrained Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Systems. IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 29(11), 3323-3333. https://doi.org/10.1109/TFUZZ.2020.3018379

Constrained interval type-2 (CIT2) fuzzy sets have been introduced to preserve interpretability when moving from type-1 to interval type-2 (IT2) membership functions. Although they can be used to produce type-2 fuzzy systems with enhanced explainabil... Read More about A Fast Inference and Type-Reduction Process for Constrained Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Systems.

End-to-End Fovea Localisation in Colour Fundus Images with a Hierarchical Deep Regression Network (2020)
Journal Article
Xie, R., Liu, J., Cao, R., Qiu, C. S., Duan, J., Garibaldi, J., & Qiu, G. (2020). End-to-End Fovea Localisation in Colour Fundus Images with a Hierarchical Deep Regression Network. IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 40(1), 116-128. https://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2020.3023254

Accurately locating the fovea is a prerequisite for developing computer aided diagnosis (CAD) of retinal diseases. In colour fundus images of the retina, the fovea is a fuzzy region lacking prominent visual features and this makes it difficult to dir...

A Comprehensive Study of the Efficiency of Type-Reduction Algorithms (2020)
Journal Article
Chen, C., Wu, D., Garibaldi, J. M., John, R. I., Twycross, J., & Mendel, J. M. (2021). A Comprehensive Study of the Efficiency of Type-Reduction Algorithms. IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 29(6), 1556 -1566. https://doi.org/10.1109/tfuzz.2020.2981002

Improving the efficiency of type-reduction algorithms continues to attract research interest. Recently, there have been some new type-reduction approaches claiming that they are more efficient than the well-known algorithms such as the enhanced Karni...

Constrained Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets (2020)
Journal Article
Dalterio, P., Garibaldi, J. M., John, R., & Pourabdollah, A. (2021). Constrained Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Sets. IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 29(5), 1212-1225. https://doi.org/10.1109/tfuzz.2020.2970911

In many contexts, type-2 fuzzy sets are obtained from a type-1 fuzzy set to which we wish to add uncertainty. However, in the current type-2 representation there is no restriction on the shape of the footprint of uncertainty and the embedded sets tha...

Towards a Framework for Capturing Interpretability of Hierarchical Fuzzy Systems - A Participatory Design Approach (2020)
Journal Article
Soria, D., Razak, T. R., Garibaldi, J. M., Pourabdollah, A., & Wagner, C. (2021). Towards a Framework for Capturing Interpretability of Hierarchical Fuzzy Systems - A Participatory Design Approach. IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 29(5), 1160-1172. https://doi.org/10.1109/tfuzz.2020.2969901

Hierarchical fuzzy systems (HFSs) have been shown to have the potential to improve the interpretability of fuzzy logic systems (FLSs). However, challenges remain, such as: "How can we measure their interpretability?", "How can we make an informed ass...
