Advanced Intelligent Computing Theories and Applications With Aspects of Contemporary Intelligent Computing Techniques - 4th International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2008 Shanghai, China, September 15-18, 2008.

This book - in conjunction with the two volumes LNCS 5226 and LNAI 5227 - constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2008, held in Shanghai, China in September 2008. The intelligent computing technology includes a range of techniques such as artificial intelligence, perceptual and pattern recognition, evolutionary and adaptive computing, informatics theories and applications, computational neuroscience and bioscience, soft computing, case based and constrained reasoning, agents, networking and computer supported co-operative working, human computer interface issues. ICIC theme unifies the picture of contemporary intelligent computing techniques as an integral concept that highlights the trends in advanced computational intelligence and bridges theoretical research with applications.
