Computational Intelligence: A Methodological Introduction

Abstract

Computational intelligence (CI) encompasses a range of nature-inspired methods that exhibit intelligent behavior in complex environments. This clearly-structured, classroom-tested textbook/reference presents a methodical introduction to the field of CI. Providing an authoritative insight into all that is necessary for the successful application of CI methods, the book describes fundamental concepts and their practical implementations, and explains the theoretical background underpinning proposed solutions to common problems. Only a basic knowledge of mathematics is required.
