"Intelligent software can come to decisions on its own, based on the training on a data set - which makes Artificial Intelligence (AI) a primary area of research these days. AI is the study and design of a system that comprehends its environment and makes decisions that maximize its chances of success. In most cases it is an application intelligence that evolves over time and gets better with fewer errors. In others it can be an intelligence derived out of a set of options or constraints"--
"The book is a modern introduction to the whole field of intelligent systems, also known as artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence has grown significantly in recent years and many texts and resources have failed to keep up with this important technology. The book takes a modern, 21st century approach to the concepts of artificial intelligence and includes the latest developments, developmental tools, programming, and approaches related to AI"--
Artificial intelligence is defined as the study and design of systems that understand and adapt to changes in their environments. Using case studies, this book highlights recent findings in the field of intelligent computing. Looking at a diverse field of cases from many different disciplines, the authors examine some of the latest examples of artificial intelligence systems and designs. Intended to aid artificial intelligence researchers, the book shows the solutions and breakthroughs other researchers have had in the field. Among the individual examples are disease detection techniques based on image scanning of patient’s eyes, automated surveillance systems with event recognition, robotic movement control, and mathematical modeling of cancer survival rates.

Although the field of intelligent systems has grown rapidly in recent years, there has been a need for a book that supplies a timely and accessible understanding of this important technology. Filling this need, Case Studies in Intelligent Computing: Achievements and Trends provides an up-to-date introduction to intelligent systems.
This edited book captures the state of the art in intelligent computing research through case studies that examine recent developments, developmental tools, programming, and approaches related to artificial intelligence (AI). The case studies illustrate successful machine learning and AI-based applications across various industries, including:
- A non-invasive and instant disease detection technique based upon machine vision through the image scanning of the eyes of subjects with conjunctivitis and jaundice
- Semantic orientation-based approaches for sentiment analysis
- An efficient and autonomous method for distinguishing application protocols through the use of a dynamic protocol classification system
- Nonwavelet and wavelet image denoising methods using fuzzy logic
- Using remote sensing inputs based on swarm intelligence for strategic decision making in modern warfare
- Rainfall–runoff modeling using a wavelet-based artificial neural network (WANN) model
Illustrating the challenges currently facing practitioners, the book presents powerful solutions recently proposed by leading researchers. The examination of the various case studies will help you develop the practical understanding required to participate in the advancement of intelligent computing applications.
The book will help budding researchers understand how and where intelligent computing can be applied. It will also help more established researchers update their skills and fine-tune their approach to intelligent computing.
