Author/s: Xin-Xing Tang (ed.)
Publisher: InTech, 2012Virtual reality has a major effect on information organization and management and even changes design principle of information systems, which will make it adapt to application requirements. The book aims to provide a broader perspective of virtual reality.
- The Age of Intelligent Machines
Author/s: Ray Kurzweil
Publisher: The MIT Press, 1992The author of the book Raymond Kurzweil, a visionary computer scientist discusses the past, present, and future scenario and scope of artificial intelligence starting right from its initial philosophical and mathematical roots to tempting glimpses of 21st-century machines with superior intelligence.
- Artificial Intelligence: Foundations of Computational Agents
Author/s: David Poole, Alan Mackworth
Publisher: Cambridge University Press, 2010The book talks about the science of artificial intelligence, it brings out AI as the study of designing the intelligent computational agents. Structured as a textbook, this book serves to a wide variety of readers including professionals and researchers.
- Mathematical Linguistics
Author/s: Andras Kornai
Publisher: Springer, 2010The book intends to introduce the mathematical foundations of linguistics into computer science, engineering, and mathematics. The book projects linguistics as a progressive body of knowledge from the ground up. It does not requires the users to have any prior knowledge about linguistics.
- Fault Detection
Author/s: Wei Zhang
Publisher: InTech, 2010Fault diagnosis technology is a synthetic technology, which relates to several subjects: modern control theory, reliability theory, mathematical statistics, fussy set theory, information handling, pattern recognition and artificial intelligence.
- Multiagent Systems: Algorithmic, Game-Theoretic, and Logical Foundations
Author/s: Yoav Shoham, Kevin Leyton-Brown
Publisher: Cambridge University Press, 2008Multi-agent systems consist of multiple autonomous entities having different information and diverging interests. This comprehensive introduction to the field offers a computer science perspective, but also draws on ideas from game theory.
- Ambient Intelligence
Author/s: Felix Jesus Villanueva Molina
Publisher: InTech, 2010In this book we analyze a selection of open problems which we consider the key ones in order to let ambient intelligence become a reality. This book provides the reader with a good idea about the current research lines in ambient intelligence.

Publisher: InTech, 2010Contents: Learning the Number of Clusters in Self Organizing Map; Neural-Network Enhanced Visualization of High-Dimensional Data; SOM-based Applications in Remote Sensing; Segmentation of Satellite Images Using SOM; Face Recognition Using SOM; etc.
- Autonomous Agents
Author/s: Vedran Kordic
Publisher: InTech, 2010The field of multi agent systems investigates the process underlying distributed problem solving and designs some protocols and mechanisms involved in this process. This book presents an overview of the research issues in the field of multi agents.
- Artificial Intelligence – Agents and Environments
Author/s: William John Teahan
Publisher: BookBoon, 2010This book is the first in a series on Artificial Intelligence. It provides an introduction to the topic with an emphasis on the use of agent-oriented design. Topics include agents, environments, agent movement, and agent embodiment.
- The Quest for Artificial Intelligence
Author/s: Nils J. Nilsson
Publisher: Cambridge University Press, 2009Artificial intelligence is a field within computer science that is attempting to build enhanced intelligence into computer systems. This book traces the history of the subject, from the eighteenth-century pioneers to the work of today-s AI engineers.
