Summary: This book is a collection of articles on the technologies needed for the construction of intelligent and information systems, and particularly on the role of uncertainty. The articles, written by some of the world's leading experts, cover the management of uncertainty and the modeling of intelligent and information systems. Issues related to optimization and learning in the face of uncertainty are discussed. Some of the articles describe applications to data fusion, document retrieval, risk management and nuclear plant control. Applications to the automation of human sensory skills are also presented. Techniques drawn from the disciplines of fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms and other constituents of soft computing are used throughout the book.
