World Scientific 2008 514 pages $142.00 Hardcover QA76.76 Intelligent systems are systems created to handle modern computer-based technologies that manage information and knowledge. This work contains material presented at the 2006 Conference on Information Processing information processing: see data processing. information processing Acquisition, recording, organization, retrieval, display, and dissemination of information. Today the term usually refers to computer-based operations. and Management of Uncertainty, on the construction of intelligent systems in environments characterized by uncertainty and imprecision im·pre·cise adj. Not precise. im  pre·cise ly adv. . Particular attention is paid to situations in which the
available information and data may be imprecise im·pre·cise adj. Not precise. im pre·cisely adv. , uncertain, incomplete,
or of a linguistic nature. The main aspects of clustering,
classification, summarization, decision-making, and systems modeling are
also addressed. Some specific topics covered are information
aggregation, neural networks neural network or neural computing, computer architecture modeled upon the human brain's interconnected system of neurons. Neural networks imitate the brain's ability to sort out patterns and learn from trial and error, discerning and extracting , Bayesian networks, and logic-based
systems. Bouchon- Meunier is affiliated with the University of Pierre
