Annotation Intelligent Technologies including neural network, evolutionary computations, fuzzy approach and mainly hybrid approaches are very promising tools to build intelligent technologies in general. The progress of each theory or application is provided by a number of various theoretical as well as applicational experiments. Machine intelligence is the only alternative how to increase the level of technology to make technology more human-centred and more effective for society. This book includes theoretical as well as applicational papers in the field of neural networks, fuzzy systems and mainly evolutionary computations which application potential was increased by enormous progress in computer power. Hybrid technologies are still progressing and are trying to make some more applications with their ability to learn and process fuzzy information. Neurogenetic systems are very interesting approach to make systems re-configurable and on-line systems for real-world applications. The book is presenting papers from Japan, USA, Hungary, Poland, Germany, Finland, France, Slovakia, United Kingdom, Czech Republic and some other countries. This publication provides the latest state of the art in the field and could be contributed to theory and applications in the machine intelligence tools and their wide application potential in current and future technologies within the Information Society.

At the dawn of the new millennium, robotics is undergoing a major transfor- tion in scope and dimension. From a largely dominant industrial focus, robotics is rapidly expanding into the challenges of unstructured environments. Inter- ting with, assisting, serving, and exploring with humans, the emerging robots will increasingly touch people and their lives. The goal of this new series of Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics is to bring,inatimelyfashion,thelatestadvancesanddevelopmentsinroboticsonthe basisoftheirsigni?canceandquality.Itisourhopethatthegreaterdissemination of research developments will stimulate more exchanges and collaborations among the research community and contribute to further advancement of this rapidly growing ?eld. As one of robotics pioneering symposia, ISRR, the "International Sym- sium on Robotics Research," has established over the past two decades some of the ?eld’s most fundamental and lasting contributions.With the launching of STAR, this and other thematic symposia devoted to excellence in robotics ?nd an important platform for closer links and extended reach within the research community.

An introduction to the techniques and algorithms of the newest field in robotics. Probabilistic robotics is a new and growing area in robotics, concerned with perception and control in the face of uncertainty. Building on the field of mathematical statistics, probabilistic robotics endows robots with a new level of robustness in real-world situations. This book introduces the reader to a wealth of techniques and algorithms in the field. All algorithms are based on a single overarching mathematical foundation. Each chapter provides example implementations in pseudo code, detailed mathematical derivations, discussions from a practitioner's perspective, and extensive lists of exercises and class projects. The book's Web site, www.probabilistic-robotics.org, has additional material. The book is relevant for anyone involved in robotic software development and scientific research. It will also be of interest to applied statisticians and engineers dealing with real-world sensor data.
