The IT2-ANFIS framework predicts energy consumption for wastewater treatment plants, quantitatively decomposing prediction uncertainty across feature, rule, and instance levels. This method enhances trust in AI by transparently linking forecast reliability to specific operational conditions, offering competitive predictive accuracy for industrial application.
Key insights
- IT2-ANFIS provides explainable uncertainty quantification by decomposing prediction uncertainty into three distinct levels: feature, rule, and instance.
- The width of an input feature's Footprint of Uncertainty (FOU) directly indicates the epistemic uncertainty associated with that feature under specific conditions, offering diagnostic insights.
- Fuzzy systems offer inherent interpretability, classifying them as "white-box" models, which addresses the critical need for transparent AI in industrial contexts for trustworthy decision-making.
