The paper proposes a novel self-organizing interval type-2 fuzzy neural network with multiple outputs (SOIT2FNN-MO) for multi-step time series prediction. Unlike traditional six-layer IT2FNN models, the proposed nine-layer network improves prediction accuracy, uncertainty handling, and model interpretability by introducing new co-antecedent, modified consequent, transformation, and link layers. The SOIT2FNN-MO also features a two-stage self-organizing mechanism for automatic rule generation and optimization. Simulation results on chaotic and microgrid time series prediction problems demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach in terms of prediction accuracy, uncertainty handling, and model interpretability.

The paper creates a new kind of computer program that can predict future events based on past data. It’s called a “fuzzy neural network” because it uses two different ways to make predictions: one is like a human expert making a judgment, and the other is like a machine learning algorithm finding patterns in the data. The researchers made this program better by adding more layers that help it understand what it’s doing and why. They tested it on some complicated problems and found that it worked really well.
