Hopgood A. Intelligent Systems for Engineers and Scientists

Second edition. — Boca Raton: CRC Press, 2001. — 461 p.There are plenty of other books available on intelligent systems and related technologies, but I hope this one is substantially different. It takes a practical view, showing the issues encountered in the development of applied systems. I have tried to describe a wide range of intelligent systems techniques, with the help of realistic problems in engineering and science. The examples included here have been specifically selected for the details of the techniques that they illustrate, rather than merely to survey current practice.
