This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Dortmund Fuzzy Days, held in Dortmund, Germany, 2004. The Fuzzy-Days conference has established itself as an international forum for the discussion of new results in the field of Computational Intelligence. All the papers had to undergo a thorough review guaranteeing a solid quality of the programme. The papers are devoted to foundational and practical issues in fuzzy systems, neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, and machine learning and thus cover the whole range of computational intelligence.
This book constitutes the joint refereed proceedings of six workshops on evolutionary computing, EvoWorkshops 2004, held together with EuroGP 2004 and EvoCOP 2004 in Coimbra, Portugal, in April 2004. The 55 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 123 submissions. In accordance with the six workshops covered, the papers are organized in topical sections on evolutionary bioinformatics; evolutionary computing in communications, networks, and connected systems; hardware optimization techniques; evolutionary computing in image analysis and signal processing; evolutionary music and art; and evolutionary algorithms in stochastic and dynamic environments.
The year 2009 celebrates the bicentenary of Darwin’s birth and the 150th - niversary of the publication of his seminal work, On the Origin of Species.If this makes 2009 a special year for the research community working in biology and evolution, the ?eld of evolutionary computation (EC) also shares the same excitement. EC techniques are e?cient, nature-inspired planning and optimi- tion methods based on the principles of natural evolution and genetics. Due to their e?ciency and simple underlying principles, these methods can be used in the context of problem solving, optimization, and machine learning. A large and ever-increasing number of researchers and professionals make use of EC te- niques in various application domains. ThisvolumepresentsacarefulselectionofrelevantECapplicationscombined with a thorough examination of the techniques used in EC. The papers in the volume illustrate the current state of the art in the application of EC and can help and inspire researchers and professionals to develop e?cient EC methods for design and problem solving.
This edited volume deals with the theoretical and methodological aspects, as well as various evolutionary algorithm applications to many real world problems originating from science, technology, business and commerce. It comprises 15 chapters including an introductory chapter which covers the fundamental definitions and outlines some important research challenges. Chapters were selected on the basis of fundamental ideas/concepts rather than the thoroughness of techniques deployed.
This book is part of a three-volume set that constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems, KES 2007. Coverage in this first volume includes artificial neural networks and connectionists systems, fuzzy and neuro-fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, machine learning and classical AI, agent systems, and information engineering and applications in ubiquitous computing environments.
The chapters in this book illustrate the application of a range of cutting-edge natural computing and agent-based methodologies in computational finance and economics. The eleven chapters were selected following a rigorous, peer-reviewed, selection process.
Annotation The three volume set LNAI 6096, LNAI 6097, and LNAI 6098 constitutes the thoroughly refereed conference proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Other Applications of Applied Intelligend Systems, IEA/AIE 2010, held in Cordoba, Spain, in June 2010. The total of 119 papers selected for the proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 297 submissions.
This book reports the recent results obtained by Italian researchers in fuzzy logic. It collects some selected papers presented at the 1995 Italian Workshop on Fuzzy Logic (WILF '95), and some invited contributions. The book covers some of the most interesting topics in fuzzy logic: theory, evolutionary computing, and gives an overview of applications in control, image processing, pattern recognition, decisions support systems, and high energy physics.
Evolution and complexity characterize both biological and artificial life – by direct modeling of biological processes and the creation of populations of interacting entities from which complex behaviors can emerge and evolve. This edited book includes invited chapters from leading scientists in the fields of artificial life, complex systems, and evolutionary computing. The contributions identify both fundamental theoretical issues and state-of-the-art real-world applications. The book is intended for researchers and graduate students in the related domains.
