Product Description


The three volume set LNAI 4251, LNAI 4252, and LNAI 4253 constitute the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems, KES 2006, held in Bournemouth, UK in October 2006.

The 480 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from about 1400 submissions. The papers present a wealth of original research results from the field of intelligent information processing in the broadest sense; topics covered in the first volume are artificial neural networks and connectionists systems, fuzzy and neuro-fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, machine learning and classical AI, agent systems, knowledge based and expert systems, hybrid intelligent systems, miscellaneous intelligent algorithms, intelligent vision and image processing, knowledge management and ontologies, Web intelligence, multimedia, e-learning and teaching, intelligent signal processing, control and robotics, other intelligent systems applications, papers of the experience management and engineering workshop, industrial applications of intelligent systems, as well as information engineering and applications in ubiquitous computing environments.

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Knowledge-Based Intelligent Information and Engineering Systems: 10th International Conference, KES 2006, Bournemouth, UK, October 9-11 2006, Proceedings, Part II (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) (Paperback) This proceedings is a 1,333 page compendium of technical papers each of which is based on the concept of Artificial Intelligence. Only papers which "...included significant intelligent systems content..." and which excluded purely classical methods were published. About 180 separate papers in the English language appear in a standard format: introduction, presentation, conclusion, references. The authors are from universities and research organizations throughout the world. The subjects presented are unlimited in scope and describe applications in nearly every imaginable field. However, the single common thread is the inclusion of higher mathematics to rationalize the procedure. Whether a paper deals with objects, actions, or information, or a combination of these, the authors customarily provide a mathematical formulation. In many cases, the authors conducted an experiment to demonstrate or test the application in a real-life setting. Computing systems were usually employed to help generate solutions. This was not intended to be read like a novel from chapter to chapter, nor can a typical scientist or engineer be expected to have the expertise to fully comprehend every paper. It is essentially a research reference on current applications in Artificial Intelligence which incorporates extensive reference lists, with website and email addresses, affording pursuit of the concepts in depth. It is highly recommended to scientists, engineers, and research personnel with very strong mathematical skills as a resource publication. Leonard C.
