Abstract

Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping (FCM) models the evolution of a system over time. However, FCM tends to produce the same steady state values under different initial conditions. To address this issue, this study suggests an improved FCM method that integrates the reachability matrix of the classical Cognitive Mapping method into FCM. The proposed method produces more distinctive and representative steady state values by appropriately incorporating the initial conditions. The applicability and effectiveness of the improved method are shown by an example.
