KW - Special Computer Methods KW - Artificial Intelligence N2 - Artificial intelligence: concepts and applications is a comprehensive discourse on the fundamental principles and concepts that lead to building Artificially intelligent programs. It details the wide range of possible application areas where artificial intelligence can be used. The concepts of heuristic search and development of meta-heuristic algorithms has led a far way towards the development of computational intelligence algorithms and nature inspired algorithms that have been used in a variety of problem solving methods. This book discusses recent intelligent techniques, so students can understand how these can be modeled into an optimization algorithm that can solve real-world complex problems. It also covers how new intelligent techniques can be derived from nature and natural phenomena. This book also aims to touch upon the research aspects of the very popular and fast growing field of artificial intelligence. Also includes illustrations (some coloured), appendices, bibliographic references and index ER -
