About the Book
The amount of digital data available in the world doubles almost every year. Managed well, this data can be used to extract new sources of knowledge for daily business use. Multidisciplinary Computational Intelligence Techniques: Applications in Business, Engineering, and Medicine explores the complex world of computational intelligence, which utilizes computational methodologies such as fuzzy logic systems, neural networks, and evolutionary computation for the purpose of managing and using data effectively and addressing complicated real-world problems. This publication brings together various segments of computational intelligence and its applications in the worlds of business, engineering, and medicine.
