The research presented in this book shows how combining deep neural networks with a special class of fuzzy logical rules and multi-criteria decision tools can make deep neural networks more interpretable - and even, in many cases, more efficient. Fuzzy logic together with multi-…
This volume comprises carefully selected and reviewed outcomes of the 12th International Workshop on Automated Negotiations (ACAN) held in Macao, 2019, in conjunction with International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI) 2019. It focuses on human aspects of auto…
This book deals with critical infrastructure safety analysis based on reliability modelling of multistate ageing system. It shows how changes of the operation process as well as climate-weather changes in the operating area of the critical infrastructure do influence the safety …
This book presents a methodology for forecasting events and phenomena occurring in technology and natural environments. The methodology is based on forecasting the individual state of the control object, which is carried out based on the analysis of the trend behavior of the con…
This book is about algebraic and differential methods, as well as fractional calculus, applied to diagnose and reject faults in nonlinear systems, which are of integer or fractional order. This represents an extension of a very important and widely studied problem in control the…
This book demonstrates how mathematical methods and techniques can be used in synergy and create a new way of looking at complex systems. It becomes clear nowadays that the standard (graph-based) network approach, in which observable events and transportation hubs are represente…
This proceedings book gives a new vision and real progress towards more difficult problems resolution. In trying to solve the problems we face every day in the complex world we are living, we are constantly developing artificial systems and increasingly complex middleware. Indee…
This book describes a set of novel statistical algorithms designed to infer functional connectivity of large-scale neural assemblies. The algorithms are developed with the aim of maximizing computational accuracy and efficiency, while faithfully reconstructing both the inhibitor…
This book is a compilation of works of different areas that seek to apply the intelligent and complex systems in various applied problems. The problems that are worked in the book are the evaluation of the competence of the states, fuzzy classification, relationship between ince…
The classical and quantum dynamics of conservative systems governs the behavior of much of the world around us - from the dynamics of galaxies to the vibration and electronic behavior of molecules and the dynamics of systems formed from or driven by laser radiation. Most conserv…
This book presents a new understanding on how control systems truly operate, and explains how to recognize, simulate, and improve control systems in all fields of activity. It also reveals the fundamental and indispensable role of control processes and the need to develop a cont…
