Abstract

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Intelligence, 7th Dortmund Fuzzy Days, held in Dortmund, Germany, in October 2001. The 71 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from an overwhelming number of submissions. Also included are four invited contributions and 24 poster presentations. The papers are devoted to foundational and practical issues in fuzzy systems, soft computing, neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, and machine learning and thus cover the whole range of computational intelligence.
