Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems, ISMIS'97, held in Charlotte, NC, USA, in October 1997. The 57 revised full papers were selected from a total of 117 submissions. Also included are four invited papers. Among the topics covered are intelligent information systems, approximate reasoning, evolutionary computation, knowledge representation and integration, learning and knowledge discovery, AI-Logics, discovery systems, data mining, query processing, etc.
