Computational Intelligence (CI) has been a tremendously active area of - search for the past decade or so. There are many successful applications of CI in many sub elds of biology, including bioinformatics, computational - nomics, protein structure prediction, or neuronal systems modeling and an- ysis. However, there still are many open problems in biology that are in d- perate need of advanced and e cient computational methodologies to deal with tremendous amounts of data that those problems are plagued by. - fortunately, biology researchers are very often unaware of the abundance of computational techniques that they could put to use to help them analyze and understand the data underlying ...

Oppositional Concepts in Computational Intelligence

Opposition permeates nature, but because of a lack of accepted mathematical formalism, the field is rarely studied outside of philosophy and logic. This book is the first ever to elucidate and explore opposition-based computing and concepts.

Linkage in Evolutionary Computation

In recent years, the issue of linkage in GEAs has garnered greater attention and recognition from researchers. Conventional approaches that rely much on ad hoc tweaking of parameters to control the search by balancing the level of exploitation and exploration are grossly inadequate. As shown in the work reported here, such parameters tweaking based approaches have their limits; they can be easily ”fooled” by cases of triviality or peculiarity of the class of problems that the algorithms are designed to handle. Furthermore, these approaches are usually blind to the interactions between the decision variables, thereby disrupting the partial solutions that are being built up along the way.

Adaptive and Multilevel Metaheuristics

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2008-06-17

  • Publisher: Springer

One of the keystones in practical metaheuristic problem-solving is the fact that tuning the optimization technique to the problem under consideration is crucial for achieving top performance. This tuning/customization is usually in the hands of the algorithm designer, and despite some methodological attempts, it largely remains a scientific art. Transferring a part of this customization effort to the algorithm itself -endowing it with smart mechanisms to self-adapt to the problem- has been a long pursued goal in the field of metaheuristics. These mechanisms can involve different aspects of the algorithm, such as for example, self-adjusting the parameters, self-adapting the functioning of int...

Intelligent Text Categorization and Clustering

Automatic Text Categorization and Clustering are becoming more and more important as the amount of text in electronic format grows and the access to it becomes more necessary and widespread. Well known applications are spam filtering and web search, but a large number of everyday uses exist (intelligent web search, data mining, law enforcement, etc.) Currently, researchers are employing many intelligent techniques for text categorization and clustering, ranging from support vector machines and neural networks to Bayesian inference and algebraic methods, such as Latent Semantic Indexing. This volume offers a wide spectrum of research work developed for intelligent text categorization and clustering. In the following, we give a brief introduction of the chapters that are included in this book.

Mining Complex Data

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2008-10-10
  • -
  • Publisher: Springer

The aim of this book is to gather the most recent works that address issues related to the concept of mining complex data. The whole knowledge discovery process being involved, our goal is to provide researchers dealing with each step of this process by key entries. Actually, managing complex data within the KDD process implies to work on every step, starting from the pre-processing (e.g. structuring and organizing) to the visualization and interpretation (e.g. sorting or filtering) of the results, via the data mining methods themselves (e.g. classification, clustering, frequent patterns extraction, etc.). The papers presented here are selected from the workshop papers held yearly since 2006.

Evolution of the Web in Artificial Intelligence Environments

The Web has revolutionized the way we seek information on all aspects of education, entertainment, business, health and so on. The Web has evolved into a publishing medium, global electronic market and increasingly, a platform for conducting electronic commerce. A part of this success can be attributed to the tremendous advances made in the Artificial Intelligence field. The popularity of the Web has opened many opportunities to develop smart Web-based systems using artificial intelligence techniques. There exist numerous Web technology and applications that can benefit with the application of artificial intelligence techniques. It is not possible to cover them all in one book with a require...
