The aim of this book is to furnish some theoretical concepts and to

sketch a general framework for computational intelligence paradigms

such as artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation,

genetic algorithms, genetic programming, and swarm intelligence.

The book includes a large number of intelligent computing methodologies

and algorithms employed in computational intelligence research. The

book also offers a set of solved programming examples related to computational

intelligence paradigms using MATLAB software. Additionally,

such examples can be repeated under the same conditions, using different

data sets. Researchers, academicians, and students in computational intelligence can use this book to verify their ideas related to evolution dynamics,

self-organization, natural and artificial morphogenesis, emergent

collective behaviors, swarm intelligence, evolutionary strategies, genetic

programming, and evolution of social behaviors.
