This book is the result of works dedicated to specific applications of
metaheuristics in smart electrical grids. From electric transmission,
distribution networks to electric microgrids, the notion of intelligence refers
to the ability to propose acceptable solutions in an increasingly more
restrict ...
n present power system, the engineers face variety of challenges in
planning, construction and operation. In some of the problems, the engineers need
to use managerial talents. In system design or upgrading the entire system into
automatic control instead of slow response of human operator, the engi ...
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a type of automatic identification systems
which has gained popularity in recent years for being fast and reliable in keeping
track of the individual objects. In RFID systems, contactless object identification
is achieved using radio signals without the need ...
To a quantum mechanic the whole universe is one godawful big interacting wavefunction ?
but to the rest of us, it’s a world full of separate and distinguishable objects that hurt us
when we kick them. At a few months of age, human children recognize objects, expect
them to be permanent and move con ...
Control systems are becoming more important every day. At the beginning, the in-
dustry used sequential controls for solving a lot of industrial applications in control
systems, and then the linear systems gave us a huge increase in applying automatic
linear control on industrial application. One of ...
If you are acquainted with neural networks, automatic control problems
are good industrial applications and have a dynamic or evolutionary nature
lacking in static pattern-recognition; control ideas are also prevalent in the
study of the natural neural networks found in animals and human beings.
If ...
Signals convey information. Systems transform signals. This book introduces the mathe-
matical models used to design and understand both. It is intended for students interested
in developing a deep understanding of how to digitally create and manipulate signals to
measure and control the physical wo ...
Modern information technologies and the advent of machines powered by artificial
intelligence (AI) have already strongly influenced the world of work in the 21st century.
Computers, algorithms and software simplify everyday tasks, and it is impossible
to imagine how most of our life could be managed ...
The past decade has seen an explosion of machine learning research and appli-
cations; especially, deep learning methods have enabled key advances in many
applicationdomains,suchas computervision,speechprocessing,andgameplaying.
However, the performance of many machine learning methods is very sensi ...
We’re living through exciting times. The landscape of what computers can do is
changing by the week. Tasks that only a few years ago were thought to require
higher cognition are getting solved by machines at near-superhuman levels of per-
formance. Tasks such as describing a photographic image with ...
