The analysis of experimental data resulting from some underlying random process is a fundamental part of most scientific research. Probability Theory and Statistics have been developed as flexible tools for this analyis, and have been applied successfully in various fields such as Biology, Economics, Engineering, Medicine or Psychology. However, traditional techniques in Probability and Statistics were devised to model only a singe source of uncertainty, namely randomness. In many real-life problems randomness arises in conjunction with other sources, making the development of additional...

Computational Intelligence with its roots in Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks and Evolutionary Algorithms has become an important research and application field in computer science in the last decade. Methodologies from these areas and combinations of them enable users from engineering, business, medicine and many more branches to capture and process vague, incomplete, uncertain and imprecise data and knowledge. Many algorithms and tools have been developed to solve problems in the realms of high and low level control, information processing, diagnostics, decision support, classification,...

The book offers a selection of papers presented at the international symposium "Intelligent Information Systems X" held in Zakopane, Poland. The papers report on progress in theory and applications of broadly understood artificial intelligence, including machine learning, knowledge discovery, knowledge based systems and reasoning, intelligent statistical analysis and soft computing (i.e. fuzzy and rough sets, neural networks, evolutionary algorithms and artificial immune systems). Interesting new theoretical results are presented and their practical applicability demonstrated. The volume also...
