Fusion of Neural Networks, Fuzzy Systems and Genetic Algorithms integrates neural net, fuzzy system, and evolutionary computing in system design that enables its readers to handle complexity - offsetting the demerits of one paradigm by the merits of another. This book presents specific projects where fusion techniques have been applied. The chapters start with the design of a new fuzzy-neural controller. Remaining chapters discuss the application of expert systems, neural networks, fuzzy control, and evolutionary computing techniques in modern engineering systems. These specific applications include direct frequency converters, electro-hydraulic systems, motor control, toaster control, speech recognition, vehicle routing, fault diagnosis, Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) communications networks, telephones for hard-of-hearing people, control of gas turbine aero-engines and telecommunications systems design.

Summary
In a succinct, well-illustrated, and non-mathematical presentation, this book integrates neural net, fuzzy system, and evolutionary computing in system design in a way that enables its readers to handle complexity - offsetting the demerits of one paradigm by the merits of another. It presents specific projects where fusion techniques have been appl
