Description
Intelligent Control techniques are becoming important tools in both academia and industry. Methodologies developed in the field of soft-computing, such as neural networks, fuzzy systems and evolutionary computation, can lead to accommodation of more complex processes, improved performance and considerable time savings and cost reductions. Intelligent Control Systems using Computational Intellingence Techniques details the application of these tools to the field of control systems. Each chapter gives and overview of current approaches in the topic covered, with a set of the most important references in the field, and then details the author's approach, examining both the theory and practical applications.
Reviews / Votes
'a very comprehensive and up-to-date treatise of this important and fascinating field. The book is an excellent read for anyone (academic or industrialist) who wishes to discover how to utilise computational intelligence to solve realistic problems. It is an extremely interesting and fascinating book on this dynamic subject, I certainly found it an enthralling read and it has been given a prominent place on my bookshelf.' -- Dr. Karl O. Jones * Measurement + Control *More details
