Computational Neurosciences is a burgeoning field of research where only the combined effort of neuroscientists, biologists, psychologists, physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists, engineers and other specialists, e.
Providing an introduction to the theory of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, this book discusses fundamental properties of transient and stationary solutions, emphasizing the stability analysis of stationary solutions by means of self-consistency equations, linear stability analysis, and Lyapunov's direct method.
CHARME'99 is the tenth in a series of working conferences devoted to the dev- opment and use of leading-edge formal techniques and tools for the design and veri?
This book deals with the theory and the applications of a new time domain, termed natural time domain, that has been forwarded by the authors almost a decade ago (P.
Synchronization: From Simple to Complex is devoted to the fundamental phenomenon in physics - synchronization that occurs in coupled non-linear dissipative oscillators.
This book is the third official archival publication devoted to RoboCup and documents the achievements presented at the Third Robot World Cup Soccer Games and Conferences, Robo-Cup-99, held in Stockholm, Sweden in July/August 1999.
In May 2002 a number of about 20 scientists from various disciplines were invited by the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities to participate in an interdisciplinary workshop on structures and structure generating processes.
Computer analysis of images and patterns is a scienti c eld of longstanding tradition, with roots in the early years of the computer era when electronic brains inspired scientists.
Complexity, Cognition and the City aims at a deeper understanding of urbanism, while invoking, on an equal footing, the contributions both the hard and soft sciences have made, and are still making, when grappling with the many issues and facets of regional planning and dynamics.
This volume presents the articles accepted for the 8th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns (CAIP'99), held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, 1{3 September 1999.
LNCS volumes 2073 and 2074 contain the proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Science, ICCS 2001, held in San Francisco, California, May 27 -31, 2001.
It is increasingly being recognized that the experimental and theoretical study of the complex system brain requires the cooperation of many disciplines, in- cluding biology, medicine, physics, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, linguistics, and others.
It is our belief that researchers and practitioners acquire, through experience and word-of-mouth, techniques and heuristics that help them successfully apply neural networks to di cult real world problems.
Deeply rooted in fundamental research in Mathematics and Computer Science, Cellular Automata (CA) are recognized as an intuitive modeling paradigm for Complex Systems.
Organic Computing is a research field emerging around the conviction that problems of organization in complex systems in computer science, telecommunications, neurobiology, molecular biology, ethology, and possibly even sociology can be tackled scientifically in a unified way.
This book contains the papers presented at the 9th International Workshop on Field ProgrammableLogic and Applications (FPL'99), hosted by the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, August 30 - September 1, 1999.
The aim of this book is to advocate and promote network models of linguistic systems that are both based on thorough mathematical models and substantiated in terms of linguistics.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control (HSCC'99) to be held March 29- 31, 1999, in the village Berg en Dal near Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
In just few years, case-based reasoning has evolved from a research topic studied at a small number of specialized academic labs into an industrial-strength technology applied in various fields.
This book adopts a case-based or story-based approach to addressing questions such as what happens when we cannot fix failures in the sense of returning the system to “normal” operations in less than many years or maybe decades, or perhaps never, or how do we recognize that we are facing pervasive failures?
