Computational Intelligence: Methods and Techniques

Springer, 2008

This book focuses on various techniques of computational intelligence, both single ones and those which form hybrid methods. Those techniques are today commonly applied issues of artificial intelligence, e.g. to process speech and natural language, build expert systems and robots. The first part of the book presents methods of knowledge...

Multiobjective Optimization: Interactive and Evolutionary Approaches (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

Springer, 2008

Multiobjective optimization deals with solving problems having not only one, but multiple, often conflicting, criteria. Such problems can arise in practically every field of science, engineering and business, and the need for efficient and reliable solution methods is increasing. The task is challenging due to the fact that, instead of a single...

Analysis of Phylogenetics and Evolution with R (Use R!)

Springer, 2011

Phylogenetics is the science of the evolutionary relationships among species. Recently, the term has come to include broader issues such as estimating rates of evolution, dating divergence among species, reconstructing ancestral characters, or quantifying adaptation, all these using phylogenies as frameworks. ...

ATM Technology for Broadband Telecommunications Networks

CRC Press, 1998

This textbook presents all the latest information on all aspects of each important component of ATM - the hottest telecommunications technology of this decade. It demonstrates how ATM internetworks several incompatible telecommunications technologies and provide the high-speed, high bandwidth backbone network that the entire telecom industry is...

Refactoring to Patterns (The Addison-Wesley Signature Series)

Addison Wesley, 2004

In 1994, Design Patterns changed the landscape of object-oriented development by introducing classic solutions to recurring design problems. In 1999, Refactoring revolutionized design by introducing an effective process for improving code. With the highly anticipated Refactoring to Patterns, Joshua...

Evolvable Hardware (Genetic and Evolutionary Computation)

Springer, 2006

Evolvable hardware (EHW) refers to hardware whose architecture/structure and functions change dynamically and autonomously in order to improve its performance in carrying out tasks. The emergence of this field has been profoundly influenced by the progress in reconfigurable hardware and evolutionary computation. Traditional hardware can be...

The Prehistory of Language (Studies in the Evolution of Language)

Oxford University Press, 2009

'When, why, and how did language evolve?' 'Why do only humans have language?' This book looks at these and other questions about the origins and evolution of language. It does so via a rich diversity of perspectives, including social, cultural, archaeological, palaeoanthropological, musicological, anatomical, neurobiological, primatological, and...

Research and Development in Intelligent Systems XXVI: Incorporating Applications and Innovations in Intelligent Systems XVII

Springer, 2009

The papers in this volume are the refereed papers presented at AI-2009, the Twenty-ninth SGAI International Conference on Innovative Techniques and Applications of Artificial Intelligence, held in Cambridge in December 2009 in both the technical and the application streams.

They present new and innovative developments and applications,...

From Embryology to Evo-Devo: A History of Developmental Evolution

MIT Press, 2007

Choice Outstanding Academic Title, 2007.

Although we now know that ontogeny (individual development) does not actually recapitulate phylogeny (evolutionary transformation), contrary to Ernst Haeckel's famous dictum, the relationship between embryological development and evolution remains the subject of intense...

Mobile Intelligence (Wiley Series on Parallel and Distributed Computing)

John Wiley & Sons, 2010

Nowadays, it is very common to see people everywhere and at anytime use mobile telecommunications devices, such as cellular/mobile phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), or laptop equipped with wireless connectivity to communicate with the network and access information. This phenomenon, which is generally known as mobile computing is...

Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies

Cambridge University Press, 2013

Controversy over human evolution remains widespread. However, the human genome project and genetic sequencing of many other species have provided myriad precise and unambiguous genetic markers that establish our evolutionary relationships with other mammals. Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies identifies and explains these...
