Design of Interpretable Fuzzy Systems (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017): Krzysztof Cpalka Design of Interpretable Fuzzy Systems (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2017)
Krzysztof Cpalka
R2,883 Discovery Miles 28 830 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book shows that the term "interpretability" goes far beyond the concept of readability of a fuzzy set and fuzzy rules. It focuses on novel and precise operators of aggregation, inference, and defuzzification leading to flexible Mamdani-type and logical-type systems that can achieve the required accuracy using a less complex rule base. The individual chapters describe various aspects of interpretability, including appropriate selection of the structure of a fuzzy system, focusing on improving the interpretability of fuzzy systems designed using both gradient-learning and evolutionary algorithms. It also demonstrates how to eliminate various system components, such as inputs, rules and fuzzy sets, whose reduction does not adversely affect system accuracy. It illustrates the performance of the developed algorithms and methods with commonly used benchmarks. The book provides valuable tools for possible applications in many fields including expert systems, automatic control and robotics.

Significant research in this area, however, is still considerably lacking. Machine Learning Applications in Non-Conventional Machining Processes is a collection of innovative research on the advancement of intelligent technology in industrial environments and its applications within the manufacturing field. While highlighting topics including evolutionary algorithms, micro-machining, and artificial neural networks, this book is ideally designed for researchers, academicians, engineers, managers, developers, practitioners, industrialists, and students seeking current research on intelligence-based machining processes in today's technology-driven market.

Local Area Networks in Information Management (Hardcover): Harry Kibirige Local Area Networks in Information Management (Hardcover)
Harry Kibirige
R2,218 Discovery Miles 22 180 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Local Area Networks (LANs) have a high potential for alleviating many of the problems associated with stand-alone microcomputers. Networking microcomputers to share information, software and hardware, as well as facilite electronic mail is not only feasible and desirable, but also logical. Harry Kibirige's issue-oriented study explores microcomputer networking systems with particular emphasis on LANs. Although his analysis emphasizes issues from an information scientist's perspective, readers who want to gain an understanding of LAN technology and its applications should find it useful. Written with a minimum of jargon, the book can be used in academic, corporate, library, federal and state agency, and not-for-profit organizational settings. The author begins with an introduction to the general concepts surrounding LANs. He discusses LANs as structures for processing information and compares and contrasts them with other structures such as time-sharing systems. Also considered are salient factors concerned with LAN design and implementation. In a chapter devoted to choosing an LAN, Kibirige explains in detail the fundamental problems of choice as well as steps which should be taken in making a final selection. Other issues covered are the relationship of LANs to other existing automation programs, significant management issues, currently implemented alternatives to LANS, technology trends which will impact the future of LANs, and social issues concerned with LANs. Finally, Kibirige summarizes the results of the CUNY study of microcomputer networking systems, a report that emphasized information center/libraries.

There is a deep desire in men, in order to reproduce intelligence and place it in a machine. Neural Networks are an attempt to reproduce the synaptic connections of our brain in a computer. Duplicating the way we use our neurons to think in a machine, it is expected to have a device that could be able to do intelligent tasks, the ones reserved just to humans some time ago. Neural Network is a reality now, not a fantasy, and they have been made in order to recognize patterns (a face, a photograph or a song, are patterns) and forecast trends. I have seen many books about this subject in my life. All of them are hard to read, and tedious to learn, so I decided to make my own one.

For beginner readers, I have tried to use a simple language, in order to be understood by anyone who wants to know about nets. An easy to read, practical and concise work. If you are interested in the brain functions and how can we simulate it in a computer, youll get here a differenty to penetrate into their secrets. For advanced readers who want to make their own nets, I have included a methodology for building neural networks and complete sample computer source-code with tricks that will save you a lot of time while designing it.

This book brings together a representative set of Earth System Science (ESS) applications of the neural network (NN) technique. It examines a progression of atmospheric and oceanic problems, which, from the mathematical point of view, can be formulated as complex, multidimensional, and nonlinear mappings. It is shown that these problems can be solved utilizing a particular type of NN the multilayer perceptron (MLP). This type of NN applications covers the majority of NN applications developed in ESSs such as meteorology, oceanography, atmospheric and oceanic satellite remote sensing, numerical weather prediction, and climate studies. The major properties of the mappings and MLP NNs are formulated and discussed. Also, the book presents basic background for each introduced application and provides an extensive set of references.

With his vast knowledge and experience, he carefully guides the reader through a broad variety of problems found in the earth system sciences where neural network methods can be applied fruitfully. (...) The broad range of topics covered in this book ensures that researchers/graduate students from many fields (...) will find it an invaluable guide to neural network methods. (Prof. William W. Hsieh, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada)

Vladimir Krasnopolsky has been the founding father of applying computation intelligence methods to environmental science; (...) Dr. Krasnopolsky has created a masterful exposition of a young, yet maturing field that promises to advance a deeper understanding of best modeling practices in environmental science. (Dr. Sue Ellen Haupt, National Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, USA)


Vladimir Krasnopolsky has written an important and wonderful book on applications of neural networks to replace complex and expensive computational algorithms within Earth System Science models. He is uniquely qualified to write this book, since he has been a true pioneer with regard to many of these applications. (...) Many other examples of creative emulations will inspire not just readers interested in the Earth Sciences, but any other modeling practitioner (...) to address both theoretical and practical complex problems that may (or will ) arise in a complex system."
