The term "Artificial Intelligence" has been used since 1956 and has become a very popular research field. Generally, it is the study of the computations that enable a system to perceive, reason and act. In the early days, it was expected to achieve the same intelligent behavior as a human, but found impossible at last. Its goal was thus revised to design and use of intelligent methods to make systems more ef- cient at solving problems. The term "Applied Intelligence" was thus created to represent its practicality. It emphasizes applications of applied intelligent systems to solve real-life...

As the applications of data mining, the non-trivial extraction of implicit information in a data set, have expanded in recent years, so has the need for techniques that are tolerable to imprecision, uncertainty, and approximation. Intelligent Soft Computation and Evolving Data Mining: Integrating Advanced Technologies is a compendium that addresses this need. It integrates contrasting techniques of conventional hard computing and soft computing to exploit the tolerance for imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth, and approximation to achieve tractability, robustness and low-cost solution....

These papers on Intelligent Data Analysis and Management (IDAM) examine issues related to the research and applications of Artificial Intelligence techniques in data analysis and management across a variety of disciplines. The papers derive from the 2013 IDAM conference in Kaohsiung ,Taiwan. It is an interdisciplinary research field involving academic researchers in information technologies, computer science, public policy, bioinformatics, medical informatics, and social and behavior studies, etc. The techniques studied include (but are not limited to): data visualization, data...
