Overview: Provides an extensive background of scientific foundations & explanations connected around Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand.Presents the idea and approaches of using “Invisible Hand ” as a control paradigm.This book shows how such a computational process functions, how great is its power and versatility, since it is possible to show how discoveries are made. In 1759, A. Smith realized that there must exist an additional powerful control mechanism behind Great Britain’s authority and government, explaining the extraordinary successes of Great Britain. He called this the Invisible Hand. Des

Overview: Summarizes the nascent field of research in CT afferents, a nontraditional field of study in contrast to the widely focused research on touch‘s more tractable discriminative and haptic properties.FocuCT afferents are receptors in mammalian hairy skin that fire action potentials when the skin is touched lightly which makes them particularly important in affective touch.  Traditionally neuroscientific research has focused on more discriminative and haptic properties of touch that are mediated by large myelinated afferents and the coding properties and functional organization of unmyeli

Overview: In electronic circuit and system design, the word noise is used to refer to any undesired excitation on the system. In other contexts, noise is also used to refer to signals or excitations which exhibit chaotic or random behavior. The source of noise can be either internal or external to the system. For instance, the thermal and shot noise generated within integrated circuit devices are in­ ternal noise sources, and the noise picked up from the environment through electromagnetic interference is an external one. Electromagnetic interference can also occur between different components

Overview: The VIIth International Conference on Aspartic Proteinases was held in Banff, Alberta, Canada, from October 22 to 27, 1996. The venue was the Banff Centre in the Canadian Rockies, a setting well known worldwide for the scenic beauty and mountain grandeur. It was perhaps presumptuous of the organizers to call this the seventh Aspartic Proteinase Conference but it was felt that the meeting in 1982, organized by Tom Blundell and John Kay, was of an international stature and covered topics sufficiently broad to constitute a conference. Thus, there is a discontinuity in that the Gifu Conf

Overview: Presents the newest developments in Flow research.Includes critical methodological and theoretical examination of the Flow experience.Presents highlights of critical examples and definitions.Includes The concept of Flow was first explained by Csikszentmihalyi (1975), described as an “optimal experience,” he noted that artists were entirely caught up in their projects, working feverishly to finish them and then lose all interest in their work after completion. The incentive lies in the act of creativity itself. The person feels optimally challenged while totally immersed in the activi

Overview: Artificial neural networks are massively parallelinterconnected networks ofsimple elements which areintended to interact with the objects of the real world inthe same way as biological nervous systems do. Interestinthese networks is due to the opinion that they are able toperform tasks like image and speech recognition that haveonly been implemented inlimited ways by traditionalcomputing methods.This book includes invited lectures and the fullcontributions to the International Workshop onArtificialNeural Networks held in Granada, Spain, September17-19,1991.
