This book addresses the key problems that computational intelligence aims to solve, including (i) the involved computational process might be too complex for mathematical reasoning; (ii) it might contain some uncertainties during the process, or (iii) by nature, the computational process is a randomly determined one (heuristic). The contributors make use of methods that are close to the human's way of reasoning, that is, available information might be inexact or incomplete, yet it would be able to produce controlled actions in an adaptive way. Approaches presented in the book include swarm...
