Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications
CRC Press 2005; US$ 165.95Computer and information scientists from the Americas, Europe, and Asia explore connections between biologically inspired techniques and the development of solutions to problems that arise in a variety of problem domains, particularly computationally intractable optimizations and decision-making applications. Among their topics are swarm intelligen more...
Evolutionary Computation for Modeling and Optimization
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2006; US$ 79.99Provides an introduction to evolutionary computation, selectionist algorithms that operate on populations of structures. This work includes over 100 experiments and over 700 homework problems that introduce the topic with an application-oriented approach.

Handbook of Nature-Inspired and Innovative Computing
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2006; US$ 129.99As computing devices proliferate, demand increases for an understanding of emerging computing paradigms and models based on natural phenomena. This handbook explores the connection between nature-inspired and traditional computational paradigms. It presents computing paradigms and models based on natural phenomena. more...
Field-Based Coordination for Pervasive Multiagent Systems
Springer 2006; US$ 47.99Software systems involve autonomous and distributed software components that have to execute and interact in open and dynamic environments. This work proposes an interaction model inspired by the way masses and particles in the universe move and self-organize, according to information represented by gravitational and electromagnetic fields. more...
Adaptive Learning of Polynomial Networks
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2006; US$ 39.99Delivers theoretical and practical knowledge for developing algorithms that infer linear and non-linear multivariate models, providing a methodology for inductive learning of Polynomial Neural Network models (PNN) from data. This work emphasizes an organized identification process by which to discover models that generalize and predict well. more...
Information Processing with Evolutionary Algorithms
Springer 2006; US$ 94.99Based on a selection of papers presented at the Frontiers on Evolutionary Algorithms Conference within JCIS 2002, this volume offers an insight into the wide variety of problems tackled with evolutionary approximations and of the diversity of evolutionary algorithms themselves. more...
Differential Evolution
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 94.99Containing illustrations, computer code, insights, and advice, this volume explores differential evolution (DE) in principle and practice. It is aimed at professionals and students wanting an evolutionary perspective on global numerical optimization. A companion CD includes DE-based optimization software in several programming languages. more...
Spatially Structured Evolutionary Algorithms
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 64.99Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are accepted as a mature problem-solving family of heuristics that found its way into important real-life problems and into scientific research. This book describes the spatially structured EAs by using graph concepts as a unifying theme. It presents the models, their analysis, and their empirical behavior. more...
