内容説明

Aimed at those interested in experimental work related to the adaptive modelling of natural laws, informatics, sensory-neutral networks, intelligent control and synergetics, this text emphasizes the relationship between rigorous quantitative modelling of natural phenomena based on physical laws and an empirical modelling based on statistics. Emphasis is also placed on general information processing systems capable of automatically modelling the relationships between quantitative sensory sata. Applications to solve real measurement problems and examples are also included.

内容説明

In this monograph, a statistical description of natural phenomena is used to develop an information processing system capable of modeling non-linear relationships between sensory data. The system, based on self-organized, optimal preservation of empirical information, applies these relationships for prediction and adaptive control. This monograph is written for students, scientists and engineers in academia and industry who are interested in experimental work related to the adaptive modeling of natural laws, the development of sensory-neural networks, intelligent control, synergetics and informatics. No specific knowledge of advanced mathematics is presupposed. Examples taken from physics, engineering, medicine and economics demonstrate the applicability of such intelligent systems.
