Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The papers collected in this book are concerned with the application of the so-called 'soft-computing' techniques to the aim of defining flexible systems. The topics covered witness the actual research trend towards an integration of distinct formal techniques for defining flexible systems. The contributions in this volume mainly concern the definition of systems in several application fields, such as image processing, control, asset allocation, medicine, time series forecasting, qualitative modeling, support to design, reliability analysis, diagnosis, filtering, data analysis, land mines detection and so forth. The papers presented in this volume are organized into three main thematic sections: Fuzzy Systems, Neural Networks and Genetic and Evolutionary Algorithms, although, as outlined before, some works employ more than one technique from these fields. 229 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Looking back over the last decade it can be said with some justification that sig nificant progress has been achieved on the way towards fully integrated financial markets in Europe. The 1993 Internal Market initiative and the Euro introduction in 1999/2002 constitute important milestones. The integration process has further been intensified by market developments like the surge in mergers and acquisi tions and by technological innovations like internet based distribution. As a result, some market segments today do no longer have a national character. Nevertheless, this success should not obscure the fact that integration of financial services markets is still a long way from the level of integration that exists within national markets. Particularly for retail financial services national borders still constitute a considerable de facto barrier. The absence of frequent direct cross border links between financial service providers and retail consumers holds true despite the fact that the Euro has made product comparisons easier and that the internet has reduced information costs to a considerable extent. 255 pp. Englisch.…

Neuware -th This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 6 Conference on Neural Networks and Soft Computing, ICNNSC'2002, held in Zakopane, Poland in June 11-15, 2002. The Conference was organized by the Polish Neural Network Society in co operation with the Department of Computer Engineering at the Technical Univer sity of Cz~stochowa. The previous conferences took place in Kule (1994), Szczyrk (1996), Kule (1997) and Zakopane (1999, 2000) and attracted a large number of papers and internationally recognized speakers like Prof. Robert Marks, Prof. Jacek Zurada, Prof. Ryszard Tadeusiewicz, Prof. Shiro Usui, Prof. Daniel Amit, Prof. Wlodzislaw Duch, Prof. Erkki Oja, Prof. Syozo Yasui, Prof. Enrique Ruspini, Prof. Witold Pedrycz, Prof. Janusz Kacprzyk and Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh. It was pointed out by Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh that 'Soft Computing (SC) is a coalition of methodologies which are oriented toward the conception and design of informa tion/intelligent systems. The principal members of the coalition are: fuzzy logic (FL), neurocomputing (NC), evolutionary computing (EC), probabilistic comput ing (PC), chaotic computing (CC), and machine learning (ML). The constituent methodologies of SC are, for the most part, complementary and synergistic rather than competitive'. This volume presents most techniques and methodologies mentioned by Prof.Physica Verlag, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 934 pp. Englisch.…

Zu den wesentlichen Anwendungsbereichen der Gentechnik zählen Medizin und Phar ma, Land- und Forstwirtschaft, Lebensmittelproduktion und Umwelttechniken. In der Land- und Forstwirtschaft sowie der Lebensmittelproduktion werden seit alters her Pflanzen, Tiere und Mikroorganismen genutzt. Durch die Bio- und Gen technik erweitert sich das Methodenspektrum, diese biologischen Systeme besser an die Nutzenerfordernisse des Menschen anzupassen. Insbesondere erwartet man vom Einsatz der Gentechnik, dass sie neue V erfahren, Produkte und Dienstleistungen ermöglicht, die zu Leistungsverbesserungen, verbesserten Produktqualitäten sowie umweltfreundlichen, ressourcenschonenden und kostengünstigen Herstellungswei sen beitragen. Damit werden große Erwartungen in ökonomischer, sozialer und ökologischer Hinsicht in die Gentechnik gesetzt: ihr wird eine wesentliche Rolle bei der Sicherung der Nahrungsmittelversorgung einer wachsenden Weltbevölkerung, der Bereitstellung hochwertiger, sicherer und gesundheitsfördernder Lebensmittel, der umwelt- und ressourcenschonenden Produktion sowie dem Erhalt der Wettbe werbsfahigkeit der Land- und Ernährungswirtschaft zugemessen. Die Anwendung der Gentechnik in der Land- und Forstwirtschaft sowie der Le bensmittelproduktion entwickelt sich sehr dynamisch: Vor rund 15 Jahren wurden erstmals mit Hilfe der Gentechnik transgene Nutztiere und Nutzpflanzen hergestellt. Inzwischen haben die ersten Anwendungen das Forschungs- und Entwicklungssta dium verlassen und werden international kommerziell genutzt. So finden beispiels weise international Enzyme aus gentechnisch veränderten mikrobiellen Produkti onsstämmen breiten Einsatz bei der Herstellung verschiedenster Lebensmittel, seit 1996 werden transgene Pflanzen kommerziell angebaut. Einige Pharmawirkstoffe, die in der Milch transgener Nutztiere produziert werden, befinden sich in der Phase der klinischen Prüfung. 305 pp. Deutsch. …
