The philosophical applications of "query optimization (QO)" are crucial in BD environments' data retrieval processes. Several distributed data processing platforms in cloud were developed to provide BD query optimization services that are both affordable and effective. Nevertheless, due to a lack of consideration for energy-related concerns and query characteristics, most solutions resulted in higher "energy consumption (EC)" and lower accuracy. We introduced an innovative deep-learning approach to arrange big data to overcome the issue. This work presents an effective query optimization that uses the Quantum parallel multi-layer Monte Carlo optimization method (QPMMCOA) optimizer and a load balancer based on Bayesian fuzzy clustering to address the problems associated with query optimization process. There are two phases to the suggested technique: (1) Big data arrangement and (2) Query Optimization. The first step arranges BD using preprocessing, feature extraction, feature selection, and deep learning-based BD arrangement. The improved Deep Residual Shrinkage Network (IDRSN) algorithm is used for the BD arrangement. The essential features are selected using the Chaotic Vertex Search algorithm (CVSA). During the second phase, a Bayesian fuzzy clustering-based load balancer is used with the QPMMCOA optimizer to improve overall query processing performance and ignore energy-efficient query plans. At last, the process of evaluating similarity is carried out. The experimental results demonstrated that the method performed better than other existing algorithms.https://ijfs.usb.ac.ir/article_9073_c79ecfd48e145201e52a5a99910212ef.pdfUniversity of Sistan and BaluchestanIranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems1735-065422220250401Application of Combining Type 2 Fuzzy CMAC Network and Jordan Neural Network in Nonlinear System Control2539907410.22111/ijfs.2025.50552.8930ENLoc TienLeLac Hong University0000-0002-9849-9297Long KimNgoLac Hong UniversityJournal Article20241218This paper proposes a new solution for controlling complex nonlinear systems, through the combination of a type 2 fuzzy CMAC controller and Jordan neural network.

Our approach, called Fuzzy-RBF Least Square Policy Iteration (FRLSPI), tunes the weight parameters of the fuzzy-RBF network (a hybrid model constituted by combining Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy rule inference system with RBF network) online and is acquired through combining Least Squares Policy Iteration (LSPI) with fuzzy-RBF network as a function approximator. In FRLSPI, based on the basis functions defined in the fuzzy-RBF network, a solution has been provided for the challenge of determining the state-action basis functions in LSPI. We also provide positive theoretical results concerning an error bound between the optimal and the approximated Action Value Function (AVF) for FRLSPI. Our proposed method has suitable features such as positive mathematical analysis, learning rate independency and, comparatively good convergence properties. Simulation studies regarding the mountain-car control task and acrobat problem demonstrate the applicability and performance of our learning framework. The overall results indicate that the proposed idea can outperform previously known reinforcement learning algorithms.https://ijfs.usb.ac.ir/article_9076_4f08f1782423a9bb88ee018ec6d93f34.pdfUniversity of Sistan and BaluchestanIranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems1735-065422220250401MFS: Dynamic decision making approach to select optimal alternative in the presence of uncertainty8195907710.22111/ijfs.2025.49694.8773ENAMALENDUSIMaulana Abul Kalam Azad University of TechnologySujitDasQuarter No D 4/4, Nit Warangal Staff Quarter (Outside Campus)Journal Article20240830The concept of a multi-fuzzy set (MFS) is a hybrid mathematical approach<br />that aids reasoning and decision-making in situations characterized by impre<br />cise information and multiple occurrences. Researchers have developed robust<br />MFS-based frameworks that facilitate decision-making by identifying optimal<br />alternatives.

The malicious perturbations to node features or graph structures can degrade model performance in defensive decision making, which requires a clean ow. We propose a creative defense mechanism to robustly enhance the resilience of MPGNNs against adversarial perturbations by leveraging a creative knowledge-based fuzzy approach for node classification that is implemented by a rule-based fuzzy model. Our study assigns each neighboring node a membership function, which quantifies its relevance to the target node based on knowledge extracted from structural information, node attributes, and community relationships to the target node. By dynamically adjusting the influence of neighboring nodes, the proposed model mitigates the effects of adversarial noise and reduces the impact of irrelevant or poisoned data, ensuring more robust message aggregation. Furthermore, the fuzzy approach helps prevent over-squashing, a common issue when increasing the number of GNN layers, by maintaining important information through controlled message passing and is followed by picking an opinion leader agent from each egonet to recycle the graph. However, our model does not require prior knowledge of the graph or attack types, making it adaptable to various datasets and attack scenarios. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets, including Cora, PubMed, and Citeseer, demonstrate greater robustness and better accuracy when compared to state-of-the-art defense strategies with reasonable complexity.https://ijfs.usb.ac.ir/article_9110_892ea2dc443878ac8ac6f5ac166882ad.pdfUniversity of Sistan and BaluchestanIranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems1735-065422220250401Enhanced High-Dimensional Data Classification by Combining Fuzzy Learning Integration and Graph Transformers129146914310.22111/ijfs.2025.50945.8999ENSajadBastamiDepartment of Computer Engineering, University of Kurdistan, Sanandej, IranRojiarPirmohamadianiDepartment of Computer Engineering, University of Kurdistan, Sanandej, IranMohammad BagherDowlatshahiDepartment of Computer Engineering, University of Lorestan, Khorramabad, IranAlirezaAbdollahpouriDepartment of Computer Engineering, University of Kurdistan, Sanandej, IranJournal Article20250128Graph neural networks and fuzzy models offer effective and practical methods for solving various tasks at the large-scale graph level. Large-scale graph embedding based on deep methods and fuzzy models is categorized into fusion and integration. Feature extraction and graph structure at the local and global levels are based on augmented graph fusion. In fusion-based graph embedding, the fuzzy model is used as an activation function based on an aggregated process. In some cases, the fusion of graph neural network methods with fuzzy systems has been successful. However, no effective methods have been developed for integrating fuzzy models with deep methods. Two main issues are associated with this integration: (1) computational complexity due to the exponential increase in fuzzy rules with the number of features, and (2) the complexity of the solution space due to the combination of fuzzy regression rules between inputs and outputs. Additionally, modeling at the large-scale graph level using linear regression and graph neural networks is not sufficient. Therefore, this paper proposes a feature and structure combination method at the local and global levels using a combination of fuzzy modeling and graph transformers, an integrated deep learning technique called Fuzzy Graph Transformer (FuzzyGT). We conducted experiments on deep learning graph datasets to compare with the proposed model.

Conventional control strategies, including Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers and Fuzzy Inference Systems (FIS), often exhibit limitations in handling nonlinearities, disturbances, and uncertainties. To address these challenges, this research proposes a Fractional Fuzzy Inference System-based PID (FFIS-PID) controller, which enhances the adaptability and robustness of temperature control mechanisms. Unlike traditional fuzzy systems that rely solely on membership degrees, FFIS introduces fractional membership functions and fractional indices, enabling a more flexible and dynamic interpretation of fuzzy rules. The key innovation lies in the fractional compositional rule of inference, which allows the system to intelligently balance the influence of rules by adjusting their impact based on both the truth degree and the information volume. This enhances the adaptability of the control strategy without altering the fundamental rule base structure. The study involves designing fractional membership functions, selecting optimal fractional indices, and evaluating their effects on system behavior. A comparative analysis between FIS-PID and FFIS-PID controllers is conducted through simulations and experimental validation on an incubator system. The results confirm that the FFIS-PID controller provides superior temperature regulation by enabling real-time adaptability to changing conditions. This work contributes to the field of intelligent control by providing a novel approach to fuzzy inference enhancement through fractional compositional rule of inference mechanism. Future research could extend this methodology to other nonlinear control applications, further leveraging fractional indices for improved decision-making and stability.https://ijfs.usb.ac.ir/article_9169_134b4d3aed3da616459a766903503a72.pdfUniversity of Sistan and BaluchestanIranian Journal of Fuzzy Systems1735-065422220250401Integrating Fuzzy Logic with Deep Reinforcement Learning to Enhance Financial Portfolio Management187204917010.22111/ijfs.2025.50135.8847ENMohadeseRezaeiIntelligent Data Processing Laboratory (IDPL), Department of Electrical Engineering, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman,Kerman,IranHosseinNezamAbAdipourUniversity Of Kerman, Kerman, IranJournal Article20241028Portfolio management is a challenging task due to the uncertainty and volatility in financial markets, making precise asset allocation and return maximization difficult. This paper presents a novel deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach enhanced with fuzzy trend indicators to improve portfolio decision-making. The model was developed using a DRL framework, where a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based policy network learns to optimize asset allocations through interactions with the market. Fuzzy trend indicators are incorporated as additional input features, enabling the model to better capture market uncertainties and ambiguous trends. By providing a more flexible representation of market conditions, fuzzy trend indicators allow the model to dynamically adjust portfolio allocations in response to changing trends, leading to more precise asset allocation decisions and enhanced portfolio performance. The proposed model was trained and evaluated on historical stock data from the Brazilian stock market, covering the period from 2011 to 2020. The dataset includes daily high, low, and closing prices, ensuring a strong foundation for model training and validation. Experimental results show that the fuzzy-enhanced model outperforms some state-of-the-art strategies in terms of both returns and adaptability to volatile market conditions.https://ijfs.usb.ac.ir/article_9170_60d0ccdb934d9b7b171e3178872a5f3c.pdf
