Beside its title, this is a description page for the PhD course on SC2015!!!
Contents
Course Aim & Organization
Soft Computing includes technologies (Fuzzy Systems, Neural Networks, Stochastic Algorithms , Bayesian Networks, ...) to model complex systems and offer a powerful tool both for research and companies in different, rapidly growing application areas, such as, for instance: data analysis, automatic control, modeling of artificial and natural phoenomena, modeling of behaviors (e.g., of users), decision support. The course will introduce rigorously the fundamentals of the different modeling approaches, will put in evidence the application possibilities, by comparing different models, examples and application cases, will describe how to design systems based on these technologies. No specific background is required. In past editions the course has been followed by people with many different backgrounds among which: all engineering specialties, biology, vulcanology, architecture.
Teachers
The course will be held by:
