Computational Intelligence in Reliability Engineering (eBook, PDF)

New Metaheuristics, Neural and Fuzzy Techniques in Reliability
Redaktion: Levitin, Gregory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume contains chapters presenting applications of different metaheuristics (ant colony optimization, great deluge algorithm, cross-entropy method and particle swarm optimization) in reliability engineering. It also includes chapters devoted to cellular automata and support vector machines and different applications of artificial neural networks, a powerful adaptive technique that can be used for learning, prediction and optimization. Several chapters describe different aspects of imprecise reliability and applications of fuzzy and vague set theory.
