Human-Centric Interfaces for Ambient Intelligence

Academic Press, 2009

To create truly effective human-centric ambient intelligence systems both engineering and computing methods are needed. This is the first book to bridge data processing and intelligent reasoning methods for the creation of human-centered ambient intelligence systems. Interdisciplinary in nature, the book covers topics such as multi-modal...

Tree-Structure based Hybrid Computational Intelligence: Theoretical Foundations and Applications

Springer, 2009

Research in computational intelligence is directed toward building thinking machines and improving our understanding of intelligence. As evident, the ultimate achievement in this field would be to mimic or exceed human cognitive capabilities including reasoning, recognition, creativity, emotions, understanding, learning and so on. In this book,...

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,...

Efficiency Instead of Justice?: Searching for the Philosophical Foundations of the Economic Analysis of Law (Law and Philosophy Library)

Springer, 2009

Economic analysis of law is an interesting and challenging attempt to employ the concepts and reasoning methods of modern economic theory so as to gain a deeper understanding of legal problems. According to Richard A. Posner it is the role of the law to encourage market competition and, where the market fails because transaction costs are too...

Descartes on Forms and Mechanisms

Cambridge University Press, 2009

The modern view of causation can be traced back to the mechanistic science of Descartes, whose rejection of Aristotelian physics, with its concept of substantial forms, in favor of mechanical explanations was a turning-point in the history of philosophy. However the reasoning which led Descartes and other early moderns in this direction is not well...

Foundations of Knowledge Acquisition:: Machine Learning (The International Series in Engineering and Computer Science)

Springer, 1993

The two volumes of Foundations of Knowledge Acquisition document the recent progress of basic research in knowledge acquisition sponsored by the Office of Naval Research. This volume is subtitled Machine Learning, and there is a companion volume subtitled Cognitive Models of Complex Learning. Funding was provided by a five-year Accelerated...

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Paradigms for Dependable Applications

Springer, 1994

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Paradigms for Dependable Applications, presents a variety of specific approaches to achieving dependability at the application level. Driven by the higher level fault models of Models and Frameworks for Dependable Systems, and built on the lower level abstractions implemented in a third companion book...

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Models and Frameworks for Dependable Systems

Springer, 1994

Foundations of Dependable Computing: Models and Frameworks for Dependable Systems presents two comprehensive frameworks for reasoning about system dependability, thereby establishing a context for understanding the roles played by specific approaches presented in this book's two companion volumes. It then explores the range of models and...

Foundations of Dependable Computing: System Implementation

Springer, 1994

Foundations of Dependable Computing: System Implementation, explores the system infrastructure needed to support the various paradigms of Paradigms for Dependable Applications. Approaches to implementing support mechanisms and to incorporating additional appropriate levels of fault detection and fault tolerance at the processor, network, and...

Foundations Of Decision-Making Agents: Logic, Probability and Modality

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

This self-contained book provides three fundamental and generic approaches (logical, probabilistic, and modal) to representing and reasoning with agent epistemic states, specifically in the context of decision making. Each of these approaches can be applied to the construction of intelligent software agents for making decisions, thereby...

Sensing, Intelligence, Motion : How Robots and Humans Move in an Unstructured World

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

A leap forward in the field of robotics

Until now, most of the advances in robotics have taken place in structured environments. Scientists and engineers have designed highly sophisticated robots, but most are still only able to operate and move in predetermined, planned environments designed specifically for the robots and...

Semantics in Adaptive and Personalized Services: Methods, Tools and Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2010

Semantics in Adaptive and Personalised Services, initially strikes one as a specific and perhaps narrow domain. Yet, a closer examination of the term reveals much more. On one hand there is the issue of semantics. Nowadays, this most often refers to the use of OWL, RDF or some other XML based ontology description language in order to...
