Design of Intelligent Control Systems Based on Hierarchical Stochastic Automata
ISBN: 9789810222550 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years works done by most researchers towards building autonomous intelligent controllers frequently mention the need for a methodology of design and a measure of how successful the final result is. This monograph introduces a design methodology for intelligent controllers based on the analytic theory of intelligent machines introduced by Saridis in the 1970s. The methodology relies on the existing knowledge about designing the different subsystems composing an intelligent machine. Its goal is to provide a measure of the performance applicable to any of the subsystems, and use that...
