Description
Book SynopsisThis uniquely crafted work combines the experience of many internationally recognized experts in the soft- and hard-computing research worlds to present practicing engineers with the broadest possible array of methodologies for developing innovative and competitive solutions to real-world problems. Each of the chapters illustrates the wide-ranging applicability of the fusion concept in such critical areas as
- Computer security and data mining
- Electrical power systems and large-scale plants
- Motor drives and tool wear monitoring
- User interfaces and the World Wide Web
- Aerospace and robust control
This must-have guide for practicing engineers, researchers, and R&D managers who wish to create or understand computationally intelligent hybrid systems is also an excellent primary source for graduate courses in soft computing, engineering applications of artificial intelligence, and related topics.
Trade Review"…the only book to examine the practical issue involved in the creation of high-performance, cost-effective applications using a synthesis of neural networks, fuzzy systems and evolutionary computation with traditional computing methods." (
International Journal of General Systems, June 2005)
"...accessible for practical engineers and at the same time quite interesting for theoretical computer scientists...it will inspire more people to use the (currently under-utilized) fusion techniques." (Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, Vol. 16, No. 3, 2005)
"…these well-written papers serve to offer insight into the powerful combination of soft and hard computing that is now being applied…to real-world applications." (Computing Reviews.com, June 10, 2005)
"This is the first book to treat the subject. With this work, the editor hopes to bridge the gap between the proponents of soft computing and hard computing." (E-STREAMS, May 2005)
