During the past few years, data mining has grown rapidly in visibility and importance within information processing and decision analysis. This is par- ticularly true in the realm of e-commerce, where data mining is moving from a "nice-to-have" to a "must-have" status. In a different though related context, a new computing methodology called granular computing is emerging as a powerful tool for the conception, analysis and design of information/intelligent systems. In essence, data mining deals with summarization of information which is resident in large data sets, while granular computing...

Based on fuzzy logic, CWW challenges the numerical dominance of computing by ascribing computational meaning to elements of natural language. Written by a key figure in the field, it shows how the method can solve linguistically stated computational problems.

As we stand at the precipice of the twenty first century the ability to capture and transmit copious amounts of information is clearly a defining feature of the human race. In order to increase the value of this vast supply of information we must develop means for effectively processing it. Newly emerging disciplines such as Information Engineering and Soft Computing are being developed in order to provide the tools required. Conferences such as the International Conference on Information Processing and ManagementofUncertainty in Knowledge-based Systems (IPMU) are being held to provide forums...

Soft computing is a consortium of computing methodologies that provide a foundation for the conception, design, and deployment of intelligent systems and aims to formalize the human ability to make rational decisions in an environment of uncertainty and imprecision. This book is based on a NATO Advanced Study Institute held in 1996 on soft computing and its applications. The distinguished contributors consider the principal constituents of soft computing, namely fuzzy logic, neurocomputing, genetic computing, and probabilistic reasoning, the relations between them, and their fusion in...

Genetic algorithms and fuzzy logic systems are two fields, with neurocomputing techniques, recognized as a major part of soft computing. This collection of papers aims to show how this group of computing techniques might produce human-centred intelligent systems in the future.
