I plan to use ANFIS and soft computing to model some data I have. However, I do not much about either. I plan to learn, what books, articles, etc. do I need to go through to learn very quickly about these subject?
To learn about ANFIS, you should have some knowledge in Neural Nets and Fuzzy Logic. Since ANFIS is invented by Prof. Roger Jang, I'd highly recommend his article and book “Neuro-Fuzzy and Soft Computing-A Computational Approach to Learning and Machine Intelligence” on this subject:
Article ANFIS Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference System
