Recent Developments and New Direction in Soft-Computing Foundations and Applications - Selected Papers from the 4th World Conference on Soft Computing, May 25-27, 2014, Berkeley

This book reports on advancedtheories and cutting-edge applications in the field of soft computing. Theindividual chapters, written by leading researchers, are based on contributionspresented during the 4^th World Conference on Soft Computing, held May 25-27,2014, in Berkeley. The book covers a wealth of key topics in soft computing,focusing on both fundamental aspects and applications. The former include fuzzymathematics, type-2 fuzzy sets, evolutionary-based optimization, aggregationand neural networks, while the latter include soft computing in data analysis,image processing, decision-making, classification, series prediction,economics, control, and modeling. By providing readers with a timely,authoritative view on the field, and by discussing thought-provokingdevelopments and challenges, the book will foster new research directions inthe diverse areas of soft computing.

Summary

This book reports on advanced
theories and cutting-edge applications in the field of soft computing. The
individual chapters, written by leading researchers, are based on contributions
presented during the 4^th World Conference on Soft Computing, held May 25-27,
2014, in Berkeley. The book covers a wealth of key topics in soft computing,
focusing on both fundamental aspects and applications. The former include fuzzy
mathematics, type-2 fuzzy sets, evolutionary-based optimization, aggregation
and neural networks, while the latter include soft computing in data analysis,
image processing, decision-making, classification, series prediction,
economics, control, and modeling. By providing readers with a timely,
authoritative view on the field, and by discussing thought-provoking
developments and challenges, the book will foster new research directions in
