Book Synopsis What Should Be Computed To Understand And Model Brain Function?: From Robotics, Soft Computing, Biology And Neuroscience To Cognitive Philosophy by : Tadashi Kitamura
Download or read book What Should Be Computed To Understand And Model Brain Function?: From Robotics, Soft Computing, Biology And Neuroscience To Cognitive Philosophy written by Tadashi Kitamura and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001-02-22 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a guide to two types of transcendence of academic borders which seem necessary for understanding and modelling brain function. The first type is technical transcendence needed to make intelligent machines such as a humanoid robot, an animal-like behavior architecture, an interpreter of fiction, and an evolving learning machine. This technical erosion is conducted into areas such as biology, ethology, neuroscience and psychology, as well as robotics and soft computing. The second type of transcendence of cross-disciplinary boundaries cuts across scientific areas such as biology and cognitive science/philosophy, into comprehensive, less technical and more abstract aspects of brain function. These aspects enable us to know in what direction and how far an intelligent machine will go.

Book Synopsis A New Paradigm of Knowledge Engineering by Soft Computing by : Liya Ding
Download or read book A New Paradigm of Knowledge Engineering by Soft Computing written by Liya Ding and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft computing (SC) consists of several computing paradigms, including neural networks, fuzzy set theory, approximate reasoning, and derivative-free optimization methods such as genetic algorithms. The integration of those constituent methodologies forms the core of SC. In addition, the synergy allows SC to incorporate human knowledge effectively, deal with imprecision and uncertainty, and learn to adapt to unknown or changing environments for better performance. Together with other modern technologies, SC and its applications exert unprecedented influence on intelligent systems that mimic human intelligence in thinking, learning, reasoning, and many other aspects. Knowledge engineering (KE), which deals with knowledge acquisition, representation, validation, inferencing, explanation, and maintenance, has made significant progress recently, owing to the indefatigable efforts of researchers. Undoubtedly, the hot topics of data mining and knowledge/data discovery have injected new life into the classical AI world. This book tells readers how KE has been influenced and extended by SC and how SC will be helpful in pushing the frontier of KE further. It is intended for researchers and graduate students to use as a reference in the study of knowledge engineering and intelligent systems. The reader is expected to have a basic knowledge of fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms, and knowledge-based systems.

Book Synopsis Computing Nature by : Gordana Dodig-Crnkovic
Download or read book Computing Nature written by Gordana Dodig-Crnkovic and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-21 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about nature considered as the totality of physical existence, the universe, and our present day attempts to understand it. If we see the universe as a network of networks of computational processes at many different levels of organization, what can we learn about physics, biology, cognition, social systems, and ecology expressed through interacting networks of elementary particles, atoms, molecules, cells, (and especially neurons when it comes to understanding of cognition and intelligence), organs, organisms and their ecologies? Regarding our computational models of natural phenomena Feynman famously wondered: “Why should it take an infinite amount of logic to figure out what one tiny piece of space/time is going to do?” Phenomena themselves occur so quickly and automatically in nature. Can we learn how to harness nature’s computational power as we harness its energy and materials? This volume includes a selection of contributions from the Symposium on Natural Computing/Unconventional Computing and Its Philosophical Significance, organized during the AISB/IACAP World Congress 2012, held in Birmingham, UK, on July 2-6, on the occasion of the centenary of Alan Turing’s birth. In this book, leading researchers investigated questions of computing nature by exploring various facets of computation as we find it in nature: relationships between different levels of computation, cognition with learning and intelligence, mathematical background, relationships to classical Turing computation and Turing’s ideas about computing nature - unorganized machines and morphogenesis. It addresses questions of information, representation and computation, interaction as communication, concurrency and agent models; in short this book presents natural computing and unconventional computing as extension of the idea of computation as symbol manipulation.
Book Synopsis Pattern Recognition in Soft Computing Paradigm by : Nikhil R. Pal
Download or read book Pattern Recognition in Soft Computing Paradigm written by Nikhil R. Pal and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pattern recognition (PR) consists of three important tasks: feature analysis, clustering and classification. Image analysis can also be viewed as a PR task. Feature analysis is a very important step in designing any useful PR system because its effectiveness depends heavily on the set of features used to realise the system. A distinguishing feature of this volume is that it deals with all three aspects of PR, namely feature analysis, clustering and classifier design. It also encompasses image processing methodologies and image retrieval with subjective information. The other interesting aspect of the volume is that it covers all three major facets of soft computing: fuzzy logic, neural networks and evolutionary computing. Contents: Dimensionality Reduction Techniques for Interactive Visualization, Exploratory Data Analysis, and Classification (A KAnig); Feature Selection by Artificial Neural Network for Pattern Classification (B Chakraborty); A New Clustering with Estimation of Cluster Number Based on Genetic Algorithm (K Imai et al.); Minimizing the Measurement Cost in the Classification of New Samples by Neural-Network-Based Classifiers (H Ishibuchi & M Nii); Extraction of Fuzzy Rules from Numerical Data for Classifiers (N R Pal & A Sarkar); A Texture Image Segmentation Method Using Neural Networks and Binary Features (J Zhang & S Oe); Image Retrieval System Based on Subjective Information (K Yoshida et al.); and other papers. Readership: Graduate students, researchers and lecturers in pattern recognition and image analysis."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Searle's theory of social reality is increasingly meeting with worldwide recognition, and is undoubtedly the most prominent theory of social ontology (at least in the post-analytical tradition), even if actual research in this domain is engaged in critical confrontation with it. Searle's approach continues to shape the debate, but his construction is more and more sharply dissected, both in its details and in its general assumptions. Furthermore, new perspectives, not rooted in the analytical...
Book Synopsis Spiritual Information by : Charles L. Harper
Download or read book Spiritual Information written by Charles L. Harper and published by Templeton Foundation Press. This book was released on 2005-06 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual Information is a collection of one hundred essays that explore a portion of the vast interdisciplinary approaches to the study of science and religion. Individually and together, the essays show how the study of ourselves, our planet, and the universe helps us understand our place as spiritual beings within God’s universe. The book is a tribute to Sir John Templeton and his pioneering commitment toward new research that results in “one hundredfold more spiritual information than humankind has ever possessed before.” It begins with essays that reflect on Sir John’s principal domains of interest and expertise: free-enterprise based finance and accelerating spiritual progress. Themes of the sections are: •Science-Religion Dialogue •Cosmology, Physics, and Astronomy •Mathematics, Musicology, and Speculation •Biological Evolution—the Human Being •Social Evolution—the Human Mind and Heart •Religion and Health •The Nature of the Divine •Theology and Philosophy •Faith Traditions “Sir John’s leadership has enabled us to edge ever closer to the frontier where knowledge meets wisdom at the threshold of ‘ultimate reality,’” notes the editor in the preface to this volume. As Spiritual Information presents an overview of how far we have come in the science and religion dialogue, it also opens windows to the vast possibilities for additional research and further advances in spiritual information.
