Of the 82 papers from 8 countries submitted to the symposium, 62 were accepted for the proceedings. Based on reviewer's recommendations and guest editor's careful consideration, the authors of 14 papers have revised and extended their symposium papers for this issue. Computational intelligence is the study of the design of "intelligent" systems, which is flexible in changing environments and changing goals with uncertainty, and covers artificial intelligence, neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, and hybrid systems. The objective of this special issue is to reveal current challenges, research topics, and technology solutions critical to algorithms and applications involving computational intelligence. These 14 papers cover such important research areas as neural networks, image processing, control, financial engineering, robotics, and related technologies in computational intelligence. We believe that the information in this issue will become a valuable new resource for the computational intelligence community. We thank the authors and referees whose selfless work and valuable comments have made this special issue possible and improved the overall quality of the papers. | ||

| Toshiaki Murofushi | ||
| Special Interest Group in Evaluation (SIG Eval) of Japan Society for Fuzzy Theory and intelligent informatics was founded by Professor Hisao Shiizuka, Kogakuin University, in 1993 to facilitate the exchange of research information within Japan on evaluation problems. Since 1996, SIG Eval has held an annual workshop, the Workshop on Evaluation of Heart and Mind. In addition to the workshop, SIG Eval has edited this special issue on “Heart and Mind” Evaluation. Contributors include those who often speak at the workshop. The first article, “Feasibility Study on Marketing Research Using Eye Movement: An Investigation of Image Presentation using an Eye Camera and Data Processing,” by Shin'ya Nagasawa, Sora Yim, and Hitoshi Hongo, asserts that, in physiological experiments using an eye camera, the user's interest influences purchasing behavior. The second article, “Statistical Image Analysis of Psychological Projective Drawings,” by Kazuhisa Takemura, Iyuki Takasaki, and Yumi Iwamitsu, discusses the use of statistical image analysis to overcome the difficulty in assessing the reliability of projective drawing techniques. The third article, “Fuzzy Least Squares Regression Analysis for Social Judgment Study,” by Kazuhisa Takemura, proposes fuzzy regression analysis in which a dependent variable, independent variables, and regression parameters are represented by triangular fuzzy numbers. The fourth to sixth articles discuss fuzzy measures, or capacities, which are quite popular for their application in subjective evaluation. The fourth article, “Identification of Fuzzy Measures with Distorted Probability Measures,” by Aoi Honda and Yoshiaki Okazaki, classifies fuzzy measures by introducing the concept of order type, and proposes the method of identifying fuzzy measure μ as a distorted probability of the same, or similar, order type as μ The fifth article, “Semiatoms in Choquet Integral Models of Multiattribute Decision Making,” by Toshiaki Murofushi, characterizes the concept of the semiatom in fuzzy measure theory in the multiattribute pref...<more> | ||

| Forty years have passed since Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh introduced fuzzy set theory in his known article “Fuzzy Sets” in Information and Control, 8, 1965, sparking new development in information technology and automation. This article also formed the roots of the Fuzzy Systems Research Group, an active part of the Laboratory of Applied Mathematics, Lappeenranta University of Technology. Rough set theory, evolutionary computing, and neural computing followed, together with their combinations. This Special Issue presents 10 papers representing these areas. Many of the contributors of this Special Issue belong to the Fuzzy Systems Research Group and others work in close co-operations with this group. The first paper considers the use of linguistically expressed objectives in multicriteria decision-making in selection processes based on topological similarity M-relations between L-sets. The second presents basic ideas and fundamental concepts of rough set theory and considers properties of rough approximations. The third combines Lukasiewicz logics and modifier algebras based on Zadeh algebras, i.e., quasi-Boolean algebras of membership functions. The fourth applies Mö{o}bius transformations, known in complex analysis, to fuzzy subgroups in a topological point of view. The fifth discusses the stability of a classifier based on the Lukasiewicz structure and tests Schweizer and Sklar's implications with an extension to generalized mean to a classification task. The sixth deals with the interpretability problem of first-order Takagi-Sugeno systems and interpolation issues, developing a special two-model configuration. The seventh describes an expert system for defining an athlete's aerobic and anaerobic thresholds that successfully mimics decision-making by sport medicine professionals, with system functionality based on fuzzy comparison measures, generalized means, fuzzy membership functions, and differential evolution. The eighth applies a differential evolution algorithm-based method to training radial basis function networks with variables including centers...<more> | ||

| Computational Cybernetics |

| Wilfried Elmenreich, and Imre J. Rudas | ||
| This issue contains selected papers from the International IEEE Conference on Computational Cybernetics that took place in Vienna 2004 in Austria at the Vienna University of Technology. Computational Cybernetics is the synergetic integration of Cybernetics and Computational Intelligence techniques. Cybernetics was defined by Wiener as "the science of control and communication, in the animal and the machine". The word "cybernetics" itself stems from the Greek "kybernetes" that means pilot or governor. While the roots of cybernetics go back to the time when James Watt equipped his steam engine with a Governor, that is a simple feedback mechanism for regulation of steam flow, the computational component was a child of the 20th century with the rise of information processing machines. The science of cybernetics and the science of computer science have in common, that both infiltrated many fields of application such as mathematics, telecommunication, regulated engines, living systems/medicine, social systems, and economical systems. Thus, on the one hand, the science of computational cybernetics encompasses a wide field, like the comparative study of automatic control systems, mechanical, biological (living), social and economical systems, communication theory, signal processing, information technology, control theory, the theory of adaptive systems, and the theory of complex systems (game theory, operational research). On the other hand, this research allows for finding common roots and common behavior among this broad field. This dichotomy between a broad overarching topic and the focus on computational cybernetics establishes the basis for interesting talks and discussions between scientists of different disciplines. We have selected 11 papers from the conference covering the fields of system design and modeling, neural networks, control theory, robotics and pattern recognition, which resemble the great variety of computational cybernetics. After the conference, each of these papers has undergone another peer review cycle in which the papers had been improved in order to fit this journal's topic and qualit...<more> | ||

| From year to year the number of investigations on intelligent systems grows rapidly. For example this year 245 papers from 45 countries were sent for the Second International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Systems (www.ieee-is.org; www.fnts-bg.org/is) and this is an increase of more than 50% by all indicators. The presented papers on intelligent systems were marked by big audiences and they provoked a significant interest that ultimately led to the formation of vivid discussions, exchange of ideas and locally provoked the creation of working groups for different applied projects. All this reflects the worldwide tendencies for the leading role of the research on intelligent systems theoretically and practically. The greater part of the presented research dealt with traditional for the intelligent systems problems like artificial intelligence, knowledge engineering, intelligent agents, neural and fuzzy networks, intelligent data processing, intelligent control and decision making systems, and also new interdisciplinary problems like ontology and semantics in Internet, fuzzy intuitionistic logic. The majority of papers from the European and American researchers are dedicated to the theory and the applications of the intelligent systems with machine learning, fuzzy inference or uncertainty. Another big group of papers focuses on the domain of building and integrating ontologies of applications with heterogeneous multiagent systems. A great number of papers on intelligent systems deals with fuzzy sets. The papers of many other researchers underscore the significance of the contemporary perception-oriented methods and also of different applications in the intelligent systems. On the first place this is valid for the paradigm of L. A. Zadeh 'computing with words'. The Guest Editors in the present specialized journal volume would like to introduce a wealth of research with an applied and theoretical character that possesses a common characteristic and it is the conference best papers complemented and updated by the new elaborations of the authors during the last half a year.

| This issue contains selected papers from the International IEEE Conference on Computational Cybernetics that took place in August 2003 in Hungary at the site of lake Balaton. Computational Cybernetics is the synergetic integration of Cybernetics and Computational Intelligence techniques. Cybernetics was defined by Wiener as "the science of control and communication, in the animal and the machine". The word "cybernetics" itself stems from the Greek "kybernetes" that means pilot or governor. Thus, the science of computational Cybernetics is especially concerned with the comparative study of automatic control systems. Furthermore, Computational Cybernetics covers not only mechanical, but biological (living), social and economical systems and for this uses computational intelligence based results of communication theory, signal processing, information technology, control theory, the theory of adaptive systems, the theory of complex systems (game theory, operational research), and computer science. We have selected 14 papers from the conference covering the fields of system design and modeling, neural networks, and fuzzy control, which resemble the great variety of computational cybernetics. While it is sometimes difficult to integrate over these differing fields, we expect the evolution of future intelligent systems at the service of mankind by the synergetic integration of these different areas. It is our hope that the papers in this issue will inspire and help our readers in the development of advanced intelligent systems. | ||

| As people attempt to build biomimetic robots and realize automation processes through artificial intelligence, computational intelligence plays a very important role in robotics and automation. This special issue contains several important papers that address various aspects of computational intelligence in robotics and automation. While acknowledging its limited coverage, this special issue offers a range of interesting contributions such as intelligent trajectory planning for flying and land mobile robots, fuzzy decision making, control of rigid and teleoperated robots, modeling of human sensations, and intelligent sensor fusion techniques. Let us scan through these contributions of this special issue. The first paper, "Planar Spline Trajectory Following for an Autonomous Helicopter," by Harbick et al., proposes a technique for planar trajectory following for an autonomous aerial robot. A trajectory is modeled as a planar spline. A behavior-based control system stabilizes the robot and enforces trajectory following of an autonomous helicopter with a reasonable trajectory tracking error on the order of the size of the helicopter (1.8m). In the second paper, "A Biologically Inspired Approach to Collision-Free Path Planning and Tracking Control of a Mobile Robot," by Yang et al., a novel biologically inspired neural network approach is proposed for dynamic collision-free path planning and stable tracking control of a nonholonomic mobile robot in a non-stationary environment, based on shunting equations derived from Hodgkin and Huxley's biological membrane equation. The third paper, "Composite Fuzzy Measure and Its Application to Decision Making," by Kaino and Kaoru, builds a composite fuzzy measure from fuzzy measures defined on fuzzy measurable spaces using composite fuzzy weights by the authors, with a successful application to an automobile factory capital investment decision making problem. In "Intelligent Control of a Miniature Climbing Robot," by Xiao et al., a fuzzy logic based intelligent optimal control system for a miniature climbing robot to achieve precision motion control, minimized power consumption, and versa...<more> | ||

| Osamu Hasegawa | ||
| We are pleased to publish this special JACIII issue on pattern recognition featuring 3 invited and 14 regular papers. The first and second concern support vector machines and Bayesian networks by authors who are field experts, and should serve as an introduction to beginners and a resource for researchers. In the third paper, the authors propose an artificial neural network for pattern recognition using "living" neural cells. This paper was invited because the research it deals with is considered an example of the interfield research expected to develop in the 21st century. The remaining 14 regular papers are reviewed and selected from 19 submitted papers. In reviewing and selecting the 14 regular papers, covering a broad field range from basic theory to applied systems, we focused on the originality of each paper and the viewpoints of the authors toward problems and experimental results. This wide-ranging selection should prove both innovative and enlightening to interested readers. We thank Professors Kaoru Hirota and Toshio Fukuda, editors-in-chief of this journal, for their support of this special issue. We also thank the staff of Fuji Technology Press for its invaluable assistance. | ||

| Much work has been done recently in soft computing, reflecting the growing, widespread interest in the emerging theory and technological development in this field. Soft computing has also been the subject of a number of new scientific conferences and symposiums, including the Joint 1st International Conference on Soft Computing and Intelligent Systems (SCIS) and 3rd International Symposium on Advanced Intelligent Systems (ISIS) at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology at Tsukuba on October 21–25, 2002. The first and second ISIS were held in Korea, and the joint conference has become internationally recognized. The conference at Tsukuba featured over 200 papers and discussions and information exchange by over 250 participants interested in state–of–the–art soft computing. The 20 papers in this special issue were selected from 209 of these conference presentations. In the selection process, guest editors first requested recommendation of papers to session chairs and organizers. From the resulting list, we asked if they could submit their papers. Submitted papers were reviewed as usual for this journal based on the JACIII standard, resulting in the acceptance of these 20. Most papers have been rewritten and updated, and we are proud of their high quality–a reflection of the SCIS & ISIS conference review process. Papers come from different areas: two focus on theory, including modal logic. Several study fuzzy control. Still others deal with different aspects of robotics. They also cover data analysis, image analysis, knowledge analysis, and language studies involving soft computing. This issue thus provides a concise summary of state–of–the–art soft computing methodologies. We thank the referees for their untiring efforts to complete reviews within the limited time given. We also thank Professor Kaoru Hirota and Professor Toshio Fukuda, editors–in–chief of this journal, for their kind invitation to this special issue. Professor Hirota, who is also the International Advisory Board Chair, and Dr. Takanori Shibata, the General Chair, are la...<more> | ||

| This special issue of the journal is devoted to Fuzzy Systems and their Applications. Today's fuzzy technology is like a mighty dragon: every year, every day, new applications appear that are more and more helpful in our peaceful life. One of the main objectives of the Second International Vietnam-Japan Symposium on Fuzzy Systems and Applications (VJFUZZY'2001) is to help this powerful technology to achieve even more. VJFUZZY'2001 was held in Hanoi, Vietnam on December 7-8, 2001. In VJFUZZY'2001, there was a wide spectrum of fuzzy research and applications, including sessions: "Fuzzy Mathematics", "Fuzzy Image/Signal Processing and Pattern recognition", "Fuzzy Optimization/Programming", "Fuzzy Data Analysis and its applications", "Towards Combining Fuzzy, probability and other techniques", "Learning, Neural Networks and Applications", "Fuzzy/Intelligent Control", "Natural Language Processing" etc. Many very interesting results were presented at the symposium. Among these various and excellent papers, this special issue offers a selection of nine papers that contribute to advances of computational intelligence in various aspects. The topics that the selected papers deal with are fuzzy relation with threshold, nonlinear optimization with convex polyhedral objective function, reinforcement learning of fuzzy control rules, learning of probabilistic causal models, data querying in fuzzy relational database, case-based reasoning in medial diagnosis, analysis of human brain activities for fuzzy and crisp calculations, fuzzy robust control of a decentralized system and image processing using fuzzy mathematical morphology. As editors of this special issue, we would like to express our thanks to all of the contributors for their interesting results, the anonymous referees for their thankless job and the Editorial Board of JACI, especially Prof. Kaoru Hirora, for the enthusiastic hospitality with which JACI agreed to have this special issue. Finally, we want to thank Prof. Hung T Nguyen and Prof. Michio Sugeno - for their supports to VJFUZZY'2001. Without their help, the VJFUZZY'2001 and then this special issue would not be impossibl...<more> | ||

| In engineering practice we often have to deal with complex systems, where the conventional approaches for understanding and predicting the behavior of the system can prove to be inadequate. Hence, the researchers try to put some intelligence into the system. The term intelligence in this context still more or less remains a mysterious phenomenon and can be characterized by different abilities of the system or machine, such as adaptation, decision-making, learning, recognition, diagnostics, autonomy, etc. Many of the new results related to this area are published in Journals and in International Conference Proceedings. One such conference is the "IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Engineering Systems". The fourth conference in this series (INES 2000) took place in Portoroz, Slovenia, on September 17-19,2000. There were around eighty participants from eighteen countries around the world. We are glad that so many authors have contributed to ideas related to the issues at the conference. Many of the papers were about applications and design, and others on more theoretical aspects of intelligent systems. This variety made the selection of papers for this special issue very difficult. Eight papers have been selected in the end, which cover different aspects of intelligent engineering systems. It should be pointed out that the respective authors were also kind to revise and update the presented papers for this special issue. The first paper deals with the manipulation problem where the motion changes depending on the state of the system as it is the case in the finger gaiting applications. To solve it the semi-stratified control theory using smooth motion planning is used. The proposed concept combines the stratified motion planning with the unconstrained finger allocations. In the second paper a special branch of Soft Computing developed for the control of mechanical devices is described. It reduces the number of free parameters and computational complexity. For illustration of the efficiency of the proposed adaptive control, a simulation of polishing with a 3 DOF robot is given. The next paper discusses the force cont...<more> | ||

| The past few years we have witnessed a crystallization of soft computing as a means towards the conception and design of intelligent systems. Soft Computing is a synergetic integration of neural networks, fuzzy logic and evolutionary computation including genetic algorithms, chaotic systems, and belief networks. In this volume, we are featuting seven papers devoted to soft computing as a special issue. These papers are selected from papers submitted to the "The eighth International Fuzzy Systems Association World Congress (IFSA'99)", held in Taipei, Taiwan, in August 1999. Each paper received outstanding recommendations from its reviewers. G-H Tzeng et al. integrate fuzzy numbers, fuzzy regression, and a fuzzy DEA approach as a performance evaluation model for forecasting the productive efficiency of a set of production units when some data are fuzzy numbers. A case of Taipei City Bus Company is adopted for illustration. Y. Shi et al. adopts a fuzzy programming approach to solve a MCMDM (multiple criteria and multiple decision makers) capital budget problem. A solution procedure is proposed to systematically identify a fuzzy optimal selection of possible projects. N. Nguyen et al. propose a new formalism (Chu spaces) to describe parallelism and information flow. Chu spaces provide uniform explanations for different choices of fuzzy methodology, such as choices of fuzzy logical operations of membership functions or defuzzifications. M-C Su et al. propose a technique based on the SOM-based fuzzy systems for voltage security margin estimation. This technique was tested on 1604 simulated data randomly generated from operating conditions on the IEEE 30-bus system to indicate its high efficiency. By defining the concept of approximate dependency and a similarity measure, S-L Wang et al. present a method of using analogical reasoning to infer approximate answers for null queries on similarity-based fuzzy relational databases. K.Yeh et al. use adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control for the structural control of bridges. Combing fuzzy control and sliding mode control can reduce the complexity of fuzzy rule bases and ensure the stabili...<more> | ||

| Today's complex industrial and engineering systems - especially with the appearance of large-scale embedded and/or real-time systems - confront researchers and engineers with completely new challenges. Measurement and signal processing systems are involved in almost all kinds of activities in that field where control problems, system identification problems, industrial technologies, etc., are to be solved, i.e., when signals, parameters, or attributes must be measured, monitored, approximated, or determined somehow. In a large number of cases, traditional information processing tools and equipment fail to handle these problems. Not only is the handling of previously unseen spatial and temporal complexity questionable but such problems have also to be addressed such as the interaction and communication of subsystems based on entirely different modeling and information expression methods, the handling of abrupt changes within the environment and/or the processing system, the possible temporal shortage of computational power and/or loss of some data due to the former. Signal processing should even in these cases provide outputs of acceptable quality to continue the operation of the complete system, producing data for qualitative evaluations and supporting decisions. It means the introduction of new ideas for specifying, designing, implementing, and operating sophisticated signal processing systems. Intelligent - artificial intelligence, soft computing, anytime, etc. - methods are serious candidates for handling many theoretical and practical problems, providing a better description, and, in many cases, are the best if not the only alternatives for emphasizing significant aspects of system behavior. These techniques, however, are relatively new methods and up until now, not widely used in the field of signal processing because some of the critical questions related to design and verification are not answered properly and because uncertainty is maintained quite differently than in classical metrology. After the initiation of the 1999 IEEE International Workshop on Intelligent Signal Processing, WISP'99, which was the first even...<more> | ||

| Introduction We are drowning in data. What kinds of data? - Text. Images. Sound. Numeric. Genome data. Text: Every day vast amounts of textual data are generated. This ranges from private corporate data, personal information, public and private government documents and so on. Much of this data needs to be accessed by many users for many tasks. For example, a corporate call centre needs fast access to documents at a semi-concept level to answer user requests. Another example: large litigations can involve 2 million documents, 200,000 of which are relevant, much fewer significant, and a handful pivotal. Techniques are desperately needer to automate the first few steps of this winnowing. Images: There are video cameras everywhere, trying to protect our safety in car parks, public places, even some lifts. There are huge and ever growing still and video archives of all aspects of our modern world. Access and indexing this data is a huge research enterprise. Much indexing is done manually. Sound: Often in concert with video in multi-media recordings. But what did the Prime Minister say on the 1st of November about the Republic? Did he sound like he meant it? These are currently not easily answered queries except if carried out by an expert human investigator. These kind of queries will need to be commonplace to access sound data in humanly meaningful ways. Numeric: Our industries generate vast amounts of valuable numeric data. In the petroleum industry geologic knowledge must be integrated with data from wells: laboratory core analysis data and on-site well logs, with seismic data generated from controlled explosions and dispersed recording devices. Then there is GIS data collected from satellites and so on. In the service industry, the stock exchange generates large amounts of hard to analyse data vital to the wellbeing of Australian companies. Genome data: The human genome project is almost complete. Researchers are finding genes by a mix of laboratory work and computerised database searches (e.g. as reported in the Weekend Australian 30 October). This is just the first step, the next will be sequencing of a number of...<more> | ||

| These papers are originally published in the proceedings of Korea fuzzy logic and intelligent systems society (KFIS) fall conference in 1999. Eight papers are selected for this special issue. Major topics of them are fuzzy theory, neural network, inference system, intelligent controller, etc. In this issue, Seihwan Park and Hyung Lee-Kwang extend the concept of fuzzy hypergraph to type-2 fuzzy hypergraph using type-2 fuzzy sets. It has not only the same properties of hypergraphs but also the extended properties of them. It is also shown that interval valued fuzzy hypergraph is a special case of type-2 fuzzy hypergraph. Jung-Heum Yon, Yong-Taek Kim, Jae-Yong Seo and Hong-Tae Jeon design an efficient neural network called dynamic multidimensional wavelet neural network. It can perform an effective dynamic mapping with less dimensions of the input signal. These features show one way to compensate the weakness of the diagonal recurrent neural network and feedforward wavelet neural network. Yigon Kim, Yang Hee Jung and Young Chel Bae propose a new method for diagnosis of insulation aging using wavelet. It measures the partial discharge on-line from data acquisition system and analyses it using wavelet to acquire 21) patterns. They design a neuro-fuzzy model that diagnoses an electrical equipment using the data. Byung-Jae Choi, Seong-Woo Kwak and Byung Kook Kim develop an adaptive fuzzy logic controller. A sole input fuzzy variable is used to simplify the design procedure and the switching hyperplane of sliding mode control is used to improve the adaptability. Myung-Geun Chun, Keun-Chang Kwak and Jeong-Woong Ryu show an efficient fuzzy rule generation scheme for adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system using the conditional fuzzy c-means and fuzzy equalization methods. They apply this method to the truck backer-upper control and Box-Jenkins modeling problem. Daijin Kim proposes a new data classification method based on the tolerant rough set that extends the existing equivalent rough set. Twostage classification method is used. All data are classified by using the lower approximation at the first stage and then the non-clas...<more> | ||

| The "information revolution" of our time affects our entire generation. While a vision of the "Information Society," with its financial, legal, business, privacy, and other aspects has emerged in the past few years, the "traditional scene" of information technology, that is, industrial automation, maintained its significance as a field of unceasing development. Since the old-fashioned concept of "Hard Automation" applicable only to industrial processes of fixed, repetitive nature and manufacturing large batches of the same product1)was thrust to the background by keen market competition, the key element of this development remained the improvement of "Machine Intelligence". In spite of the fact that L. A. Zadeh already introduced the concept of "Machine Intelligence Quotient" in 1996 to measure machine intelligence2) , this term remained more or less of a mysterious meaning best explicable on the basis of practical needs. The weak point of hard automation is that the system configuration and operations are fixed and cannot be changed without incurring considerable cost and downtime. Mainly it can be used in applications that call for fast and accurate operation in large batch production. Whenever a variety of products must be manufactured in small batches and consequently the work-cells of a production line should be quickly reconfigured to accommodate a change in products, hard automation becomes inefficient and fails due to economic reasons. In these cases, new, more flexible way of automation, so-called "Soft Automation," are expedient and suitable. The most important "ingredient" of soft automation is its adaptive ability for efficiently coping with changing, unexpected or previously unknown conditions, and working with a high degree of uncertainty and imprecision since in practice increasing precision can be very costly. This adaptation must be realized without or within limited human interference: this is one essential component of machine intelligence. Another important factor is that engineering practice often must deal with complex systems of multiple variable and multiple parameter models al...<more> | ||

| The 1999 IEEE Canadian Conference on Electrical and computer Engineering (CCECE'99) was held from May 9 to 12, 1999, at the Shaw Conference Centre in Edmonton. The conference was a great success with over 380 papers presented and more than 400 peoples from 38 different countries presenting their recent research results. The area of Computational Intelligence was one of the vivid pursuits presented at the conference. Subsequently, we have been invited by the Editors-in-Chief of the Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence to prepare a Special Issue of the Journal CCECE'99 conference. After a careful and strict peer review process, we have chosen six papers to be included in this special issue. They are selected from more than 20 papers submitted to this special issue, which are extended versions of the papers presented at the CCECE'99 conference in the areas of advanced computational intelligence. The papers fully reflect the breadth and diversity of conceptual and algorithmic facets of Computational Intelligence along with a spectrum of applications. We thank the authors and reviewers for doing an excellent job. We are grateful to Kaoru Hirota and Toshio Fukuda for making this selection of papers a part of the journal. We do hope the readers will enjoy this issue. | ||

| Evolution and learning are two fundamental forms of adaptationl,2). Simulated evolution and learning refers to the study of techniques and methods inspired by Nature for solving complex and difficult real-world problems. These techniques and methods include evolutionary algorithms3), fuzzy learning algorithms, neural learning algorithms, and various statistical learning methods such as nearest neighbor classifiers. In addition to various learning tasks, these techniques and methods have also been applied to various difficult optimization problems that cannot be solved effectively by classical methods (such as mathematical programming methods). This special issue contains six papers selected from those presented at the Second Asia-Pacific Conference on Simulated Evolution And Learning (SEAL'98), Canberra, Australia, 24-27 November 1998. However, all six papers have been rereviewed and substantially extended and revised. They represent significant improved work from their original SEA L'98 papers. The six papers can be grouped into three categories. The first two papers by He et al. and by Ishibuchi and Nakashima described novel applications of genetic algorithms to nearest neighbor classifiers. The next two papers by Kawakami et al. and by Tachibana and Furuhashi presented new fuzzy learning systems. The last two papers by Myung and Kim and by Yu and Wu discussed constrained optimization using the evolutionary approach. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr Bob McKay, the SEAL'98 Organizing Committee Chair, for playing a pivotal role in organizing the very successful SEAL'98, Professor Kaoru Hirota, the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence, for encouraging me to edit this special issue, and all the authors for their high-quality work.

| Learning has long been and will continue to be a key issue in intelligent algorithms and systems design. Emulating the behavior and mechanisms of human learning by machines at such high levels as symbolic processing and such low levels as neuronal processing has long been a dominant interest among researchers worldwide. Neural networks, fuzzy logic, and evolutionary algorithms represent the three most active research areas. With advanced theoretical studies and computer technology, many promising algorithms and systems using these techniques have been designed and implemented for a wide range of applications. This Special Issue presents seven papers on learning in intelligent algorithms and systems design from researchers in Japan, China, Australia, and the U.S. Neural Networks: Emulating low-level human intelligent processing, or neuronal processing, gave birth of artificial neural networks more than five decades ago. It was hoped that devices based on biological neural networks would possess characteristics of the human brain. Neural networks have reattracted researchers' attention since the late 1980s when back-propagation algorithms were used to train multilayer feed-forward neural networks. In the last decades, we have seen promising progress in this research field yield many new models, learning algorithms, and real-world applications, evidenced by the publication of new journals in this field. Fuzzy Logic: Since L. A. Zadeh introduced fuzzy set theory in 1965, fuzzy logic has increasingly become the focus of many researchers and engineers opening up new research and problem solving. Fuzzy set theory has been favorably applied to control system design. In the last few years, fuzzy model applications have bloomed in image processing and pattern recognition. Evolutionary Algorithms: Evolutionary optimization algorithms have been studied over three decades, emulating natural evolutionary search and selection so powerful in global optimization. The study of evolutionary algorithms includes evolutionary programming (EP), evolutionary strategies (ESs), genetic algorithms (GAs), and genetic program...<more> | ||

| Rule extraction from data is one of the key technologies for solving the bottlenecks in artificial intelligence. Artificial neural networks are well suited for representing any knowledge in given data. Extraction of logical/fuzzy rules from the trained artificial neural network is of great importance to researchers in the fields of artificial intelligence and soft computing. Fuzzy rule sets are capable of approximating any nonlinear mapping relationships. Extraction of rules from data has been discussed in terms of fuzzy modeling, fuzzy clustering, and classification with fuzzy rule sets. This special issue entitled"Rule Extraction from Data" is aimed at providing the readers with good insights into the advanced studies in the field of rule extraction from data using neural networks/fuzzy rule sets. I invited seven research papers best suited for the theme of this special issue. All the papers were reviewed rigorously by two reviewers each. The first paper proposes an interesting rule extraction method from data using neural networks. Ishikawa presents a combination of learning with an immediate critic and a structural learning with forgetting. This method is capable of generating skeletal networks for logical rule extraction from data with correct and wrong answers. The proposed method is applied to rule extraction from lense data. The second paper presents a new methodology for logical rule extraction based on transformation of MLP (multilayered perceptron) to a logical network. Duck et al. applied their C-MLP2LN to the Iris benchmark classification problem as well as real-world medical data with very good results. In the third paper, Geczy and Usui propose fuzzy rule extraction from trained artificial neural networks. The proposed algorithm is implied from their theoretical study, not from heuristics. Their study enables to initially consider derivation of crisp rules from trained artificial neural network, and in case of conflict, application of fuzzy rules. The proposed algorithm is experimentally demonstrated with the Iris benchmark classification problem. The fourth paper presents a new framework for fuzzy modeling ...<more> | ||

| After the publication of Professor Ernest Czogala Memorial Issue Part 1, I found 2 obituaries, one in the International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, Vo1.9 No.1, published by the Technical University Press, Poland, by Maria Drelichowska and Lucjan Karwan of the Technical University, Silesia, Gliwice, Poland. The other was published"Fuzzy Systems in Medicine" (P.S. Szczepaniak eds.), Physica-Verlag, published in January 2000, which included my paper,"Fuzzy and Crisp Logical Rule Extraction Methods in Application to Medical Data," which I wrote in collaboration with W. Duch et al. This issue includes the final paper,"A Classifier Based on Neurofuzzy Inference," by Ernest Czogala, Jacek Leski, and Yoichi Hayashi, which is why this edition has been published later than planned. I would like include a comment by Samuel Ullman, written in Birmingham, Alabama, where Ernest's cousin and researcher James J. Buckley works: "Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind... Nobody grows old merely by years. We grow old by deserting our ideals." The Samuel Ullman Museum at the University of Alabama is at 2150 15th Avenue South, Birmingham, Alabama 35294-1150 (phone:001(205)934-5634), thanks to citizens of Japan and the United States.

| As you may know from recent e-mail, BUSEFAL Vo1.76, Obituary, and Fuzzy Sets and Systems (FSS), Vo1.104, No.2, Obituary, Prof. Ernest Czogala passed away on October 8, 1998. First, I would like to express my sincere condolences to his eldest daughter Theresa Czogala-Koczy and son. The call for papers for this special issue has been answered from all over the globe. This issue includes the first seven accepted. The next issue will include those remaining. Since a formal obituary was provided by Professor Witold Pedrycz, a student of Ernest, in FSS as indicated above, I will add a few words of my own here. I first met Prof. Czogala when I was a visiting professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Department of Computer and Information Sciences in 1990-1991. He was visiting the Mathematics Department, working with Professor James J. Buckley. When I first met Ernest, I intuitively felt that he, Jim (Prof. Buckley), and I would accomplish outstanding work in the near future. I promised to invite Ernest and Jim to Ibaraki University Department of Computer and Information Sciences in summer 1991. After my sabbatical at UAB, I received a letter from Ernest, asking, "Could I really visit your university for a month?" I immediately sent a formal invitation letter to Ernest and Jim. Ernest purchased an airline ticket between Poland and Japan - a princely sum equal to 6 months of his salary! He arrived August 19, 1991, at Narita Airport around 07:30 aboard All Nippon Airways from Poland via Wien. I drove a Toyota Camry to Narita from Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture - a 2.5-hour excited jaunt. My wife Madoka and I went to pick him up. He appeared easygoing, shod in flip-flops. Madoka and I took him to Narita-san Temple - and found he had only 50 DM with him! After spending a few hours at Narita-san and eating lunch, Jim arrived from Birmingham. We picked him up and returned to Hitachi. Ibaraki University has a very old-fashioned guesthouse - but it only cost 700 a day. The next day, a coup d'etat shook Moscow. Ernest applauded, saying "Poland will be free." From that day, we started our cooperative research in an un-air...<more> | ||

| We are witnessing a rapidly growing interest in the field of advanced computational intelligence, a "soft computing" technique. As Prof. Zadeh has stated, soft computing integrates fuzzy logic, neural networks, evolutionary computation, and chaos. Soft computing is the most important technology available for designing intelligent systems and control. The difficulties of fuzzy logic involve acquiring knowledge from experts and finding knowledge for unknown tasks. This is related to design problems in constructing fuzzy rules. Neural networks and genetic algorithms are attracting attention for their potential in raising the efficiency of knowledge finding and acquisition. Combining the technologies of fuzzy logic and neural networks and genetic algorithms, i.e., soft computing techniques will have a tremendous impact on the fields of intelligent systems and control design. To explain the apparent success of soft computing, we must determine the basic capabilities of different soft computing frameworks. Give the great amount of research being done in these fields, this issue addresses fundamental capabilities. This special issue is devoted to advancing computational intelligence in control theory and applications. It contains nine excellent papers dealing with advanced computational intelligence in control theory and applications such as fuzzy control and stability, mobile robot control, neural networks, gymnastic bar action, petroleum plant control, genetic programming, Petri net, and modeling and prediction of complex systems. As editor of this special issue, I believe that the excellent research results it contains provide the basis for leadership in coming research on advanced computational intelligence in control theory and applications. | ||

| Soft computing was advocated by Prof. Zadeh as a total technology complementary to the advantages and disadvantages of fuzzy theory, neural network models, genetic algorithms, and so on - a wide variety of topics covered at scientific conferences, in books, in papers, etc. In human-centered information systems, human beings play a central role in information processing. Human information processing involves uncertainty, fuzziness, ambiguity, subjectivity, etc., be dealt with well by soft computing. Human-centered information processing systems are important fields of soft computing. This special issue was motivated by the editors' research project at the Tsukuba Advanced Research Alliance (TARA), University of Tsukuba. The title of this issue is thus similar to the TARA project title, Soft Computing and Human Centered Information Systems. This special issue comprehensively covers soft computing, including chaos theory, rough sets, multisets, as well as fuzzy theory, neural network models, and genetic algorithms. Human-centered information systems are also covered extensively, e.g., human imperfect information processing, human evaluation/judgment, optimal allocation problems, vehicle systems, and human intelligent information processing. This issue focuses on eight papers: The first, A Semantic-Ambiguity-Free Relational Model for Handling Imperfect Information, by Nakata, focuses on imperfect information without semantic ambiguity from the standpoint that an extension of relational models causes semantic ambiguity. This paper proposes an extended relational model in the framework of fuzzy sets and the theory of possibility. The paper formulates set and relational operations as extended relational algebra in the proposed model. The paper is applicable to human imperfect information processing. The second paper, Fuzzy Clustering for Detecting Linear Structures with Different Dimensions, by Umayahara et al., proposes a new objective function and an algorithm for detecting clusters with different dimensionalities. The proposed algorithm improves conventional approaches for detecting linear varieties with different dimensionali...<more> | ||

| Self-Organization and Adaptation in Intelligent Systems |

| Nikola Kasabov and Robert Kozma | ||
| This special issue is devoted to one of the important topics of current intelligent information systems-their ability to adapt to the environment they operate in, as adaptation is one of the most important features of intelligence. Several milestones in the literature on adaptive systems mark the development in this area. The Hebbian learning rule,1) self-organizing maps,2,3) and adaptive resonance theory4) have influenced the research in this area a great deal. Some current development suggests methods for building adaptive neurofuzzy systems,5) and adaptive self-organizing systems based on principles from biological brains.6) The papers in this issue are organized as follows: The first two papers present material on organization and adaptation in the human brain. The third paper, by Kasabov, presents a novel approach to building open structured adaptive systems for on-line adaptation called evolving connectionist systems. The fourth paper by Kawahara and Saito suggests a method for building virtually connected adaptive cell structures. Papers 5 and 6 discuss the use of genetic algorithms and evolutionary computation for optimizing and adapting the structure of an intelligent system. The last two papers suggest methods for adaptive learning of a sequence of data in a feed-forward neural network that has a fixed structure. References: 1) D.O.

| Building intelligent systems has been one of the great challenges since the early days of human culture. From the second half of the 18th century, two revolutionary changes played the key role in technical development, hence in creating engineering and intelligent engineering systems. The industrial revolution was made possible through technical advances, and muscle power was replaced by machine power. The information revolution of our time, in turn, canbe characterized as the replacement of brain power by machine intelligence. The technique used to build engineering systems and replace muscle power can be termed "Hard Automation"1) and deals with industrial processes that are fixed and repetitive in nature. In hard automation, the system configuration and the operations are fixed and cannot be changed without considerable down-time and cost. It can be used, however, particularly in applications calling for fast, accurate operation, when manufacturing large batches of the same product. The "intelligent" area of automation is "Soft Automation," which involves the flexible, intelligent operation of an automated process. In flexible automation, the task is programmable and a work cell must be reconfigured quickly to accommodate a product change. It is particularly suitable for plant environments in which a variety of products is manufactured in small batches. Processes in flexible automation may have unexpected or previously unknown conditions, and would require a certain degree of "machine" intelligence to handle them.The term machine intelligence has been changing with time and is machinespecific, so intelligence in this context still remains more or less a mysterious phenomenon. Following Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh,2) we consider a system intelligent if it has a high machine intelligence quotient (MIQ). As Prof. Zadeh stated, "MIQ is a measure of intelligence of man-made systems," and can be characterized by its well defined dimensions, such as planning, decision making, problem solving, learning reasoning, natural language understanding, speech recognition, handwriting recognition, pattern recognition, diagnostics, and executio...<more> | ||

| In the last issue (Vol.1, No.2), we introduced the Legal Expert System (LES) project led by Hajime Yoshino of Meiji Gakuin University, presenting six papers on the LES project. Those papers were mainly related to higher order reasoning systems such as ase-based reasoning, abductive and inductive logic programming, nonmonotonic reasoning, and analogical reasoning. The objective of the LES project was to develop a legal expert system effective for use by lawyers, so the project covers inference mechanisms, analysis of legal knowledge, and user interfaces. In this second special issue on the LES project, we present five more papers, mainly related to the analysis of legal knowledge, legal knowledge representation language, and legal reasoning system user interfaces. Hajime Yoshino analyzes the logical structure of contract law. To develop a knowledge base for the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), he proposes a clear logical model of the contract law system, which treats relations between events and legal status such as rights and obligations. Yoshino demonstrates that legal metarules are effective in constructing deductive legal reasoning systems, and are appropriate from the viewpoint of jurisprudence. Seiichiro Sakurai discusses the logical features of the legal knowledge representation language, CPF, developed by Hajime Yoshino. CPF is a logic programming language that enhances the representation of complex data structures. CPF is a convenient tool for representing legal knowledge, yet lawyers often attempt to describe nonexecutable forms of CPF rules.Sakurai introduces a way to construct an executable knowledge base from lawyers' CPF rules. Masato Shibasaki and Katsumi Nitta introduce a new framework to formalize nonmonotonic reasoning with dynamic priorities. The several frameworks proposed thus far to model relationships among arguments do not treat complex arguments, composed of strict rules and default rules. They show that the new framework represents such relationships and analyze these relationships for this framework and others. Takashi Miyata and Yuji Matsumoto int...<more> | ||

| Lawyers use a reasoning process known as legal reasoning to solve legal problems. Legal expert systems could potentially help lawyers solve legal problems more quick and adequately, enable students to study law at school or at home more easily, and help legal scholars and professionals analyze the law and legal systems more clearly and precisely.In 1992, Hajime Yoshino of Meiji Gakuin University started a “Legal Expert Systems” project. This “Legal Expert” project is funded by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Science and Culture and is scheduled to run from May 1992 to March 1998. Yoshino organized over 30 lawyers and computer scientists to clarify legal knowledge and develop legal expert systems.This project covers a wide range of technologies such as the analysis of legal knowledge, the analysis of legal rules on international trade (United Nations Convention on Contracts for International Sale of Goods (CISG)), legal knowledge representation, legal inference models, utility programs to develop legal knowledge bases, and user interfaces. This project, which ends in March 1998, will focus on developing comprehensive legal expert systems as the final product. In this issue, we present 12 papers written by “Legal Expert” project members.In this number, Hajime Yoshino gives are overview of the legal expert systems project, explaining its aims, objectives, and organization. Six papers that follow his introduction include three on case-based reasoning. Legal rules are given by ambiguous predicates, making it difficult sometimes to determine whether conditions for rules are satisfied by the facts given of an event. In such cases, lawyers often refer to old cases and generate hypotheses through analogical reasoning.Kaoru Hirota, Hajime Yoshino and Ming Qiang Xu apply fuzzy theory to case-based reasoning. A number of related systems have been developed, but most focus on qualitative similarities between old cases and the current case, and cannot measure quantitative similarities. Hirota et al. treat quantitative similarity by applying fuzzy theory, explaining their method using CISG examples.Ken Satoh developed a way to comput...<more> | ||
