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...

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...

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...

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,...

Robot Brains: Circuits and Systems for Conscious Machines

John Wiley & Sons, 2007

Haikonen envisions autonomous robots that perceive and understand the world directly, acting in it in a natural human-like way without the need of programs and numerical representation of information. By developing higher-level cognitive functions through the power of artificial associative neuron architectures, the author approaches the issues of...

Geometric Problems on Maxima and Minima

Birkhauser, 2005

Questions of maxima and minima have great practical significance, with applications to physics, engineering, and economics; they have also given rise to theoretical advances, notably in calculus and optimization. Indeed, while most texts view the study of extrema within the context of calculus, this carefully constructed problem book takes a...

The Fuzzy Systems Handbook: A Practitioner's Guide to Building, Using, and Maintaining Fuzzy Systems/Book and Disk

Academic Press, 1994

My 1965 paper on fuzzy sets was motivated in large measure by the conviction that traditional methods of systems analysis are unsuited for dealing with systems in which relations between variables do not lend themselves to representation in terms of differential or difference equations. Such systems are the norm in biology, sociology, economics...

LWUIT 1.1 for Java ME Developers

Packt Publishing, 2009

Writing appealing cross-device applications today in Java ME is challenging as implementation differences in fonts, layout, and menus can make your application look and behave very differently on different devices. So far, the only way out has been low-level programming with its associated complexity.

The Lightweight UI Toolkit (LWUIT),...

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...

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 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 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...
