This volume contains the collected papers of the NATO Conference on Neurocomputing, held in Les Arcs in February 1989. For many of us, this conference was reminiscent of another NATO Conference, in 1985, on Disordered Systems [1], which was the first conference on neural nets to be held in France. To some of the participants that conference opened, in a way, the field of neurocomputing (somewhat exotic at that time!) and also allowed for many future fruitful contacts. Since then, the field of neurocomputing has very much evolved and its audience has increased so widely that meetings in the US have often gathered more than 2000 participants. However, the NATO workshops have a distinct atmosphere of free discussions and time for exchange, and so, in 1988, we decided to go for another session. This was an ~casion for me and some of the early birds of the 1985 conference to realize how much, and how little too, the field had matured.
Looking at ways to encode prior knowledge and to extract, refine, and revise knowledge within a neurocomputing system.Neurocomputing methods are loosely based on a model of the brain as a network of simple interconnected processing elements corresponding to neurons. These methods derive their power from the collective processing of artificial neurons, the chief advantage being that such systems can learn and adapt to a changing environment. In knowledge-based neurocomputing, the emphasis is on the use and representation of knowledge about an application. Explicit modeling of the knowledge represented by such a system remains a major research topic. The reason is that humans find it difficult to interpret the numeric representation of a neural network.The key assumption of knowledge-based neurocomputing is that knowledge is obtainable from, or can be represented by, a neurocomputing system in a form that humans can understand. That is, the knowledge embedded in the neurocomputing system can also be represented in a symbolic or well-structured form, such as Boolean functions, automata, rules, or other familiar ways. The focus of knowledge-based computing is on methods to encode prior knowledge and to extract, refine, and revise knowledge within a neurocomputing system.ContributorsC. Aldrich, J. Cervenka, I.

The book presents a coherent understanding of computational intelligence from the perspective of what is known as "intelligent computing" with high-dimensional parameters. It critically discusses the central issue of high-dimensional neurocomputing, such as quantitative representation of signals, extending the dimensionality of neuron, supervised and unsupervised learning and design of higher order neurons. The strong point of the book is its clarity and ability of the underlying theory to unify our understanding of high-dimensional computing where conventional methods fail. The plenty of application oriented problems are presented for evaluating, monitoring and maintaining the stability of adaptive learning machine. Author has taken care to cover the breadth and depth of the subject, both in the qualitative as well as quantitative way. The book is intended to enlighten the scientific community, ranging from advanced undergraduates to engineers, scientists and seasoned researchers in computational intelligence.
The areas covered here are those which are commonly managed by the generalist. The four contributions discuss: the autopsy in fatal non- missile head injuries; viral encephalitis and its pathology; a general approach to neuropathological problems; and dementia in middle and late life. Gives an overview of the network theory, including background review, basic concepts, associative networks, mapping networks, spatiotemporal networks, and adaptive resonance networks. Explores the principles of fuzzy logic. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
This book covers the latest technological advances in neuro-computational intelligence in biological processes where the primary focus is on biologically inspired neuro-computational techniques. The theoretical and practical aspects of biomedical neural computing, brain-inspired computing, bio-computational models, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) approaches in biomedical data analytics are covered along with their qualitative and quantitative features. The contents cover numerous computational applications, methodologies and emerging challenges in the field of bio-soft computing and bio-signal processing. The authors have taken meticulous care in describing the fundamental concepts, identifying the research gap and highlighting the problems with the strategical computational approaches to address the ongoing challenges in bio-inspired models and algorithms. Given the range of topics covered, this book can be a valuable resource for students, researchers as well as practitioners interested in the rapidly evolving field of neurocomputing and biomedical data analytics.
Neurocomputing can be applied to problems such as pattern recognition, optimization, event classification, control and identification of nonlinear systems, and statistical analysis - just to name a few. This book is intended for a course in neural networks."--BOOK JACKET.
Neurocomputing for Design Automation provides innovative design theories and computational models with two broad objectives: automation and optimization. This singular book: Presents an introduction to the automation and optimization of engineering design of complex engineering systems using neural network computing Outlines new computational models and paradigms for automating the complex process of design for unique engineering systems, such as steel highrise building structures Applies design theories and models to the solution of structural design problems Integrates three computing paradigms: mathematical optimization, neural network computing, and parallel processing The applications described are general enough to be applied directly or by extension to other engineering design problems, such as aerospace or mechanical design. Also, the computational models are shown to be stable and robust - particularly suitable for design automation of large systems, such as a 144-story steel super-highrise building structure with more than 20,000 members. The book provides an exceptional framework for the automation and optimization of engineering design, focusing on a new computing paradigm - neural networks computing. It presents the automation of complex systems at a new and higher level never achieved before.

This book is a beginning graduate-level introduction to neural networks which is divided into four parts.
This book contains an edited collection of eighteen contributions on soft and hard computing techniques and their applications to autonomous robotic systems. Each contribution has been exclusively written for this volume by a leading researcher. The volume demonstrates the various ways that the soft computing and hard computing techniques can be used in different integrated manners to better develop autonomous robotic systems that can perform various tasks of vision, perception, cognition, thinking, pattern recognition, decision-making, and reasoning and control, amongst others. Each chapter of the book is self-contained and points out the future direction of research. "It is a must reading for students and researchers interested in exploring the potentials of the fascinating field that will form the basis for the design of the intelligent machines of the future" (Madan M. Gupta)
