Intelligent Systems and Applications

“This book is a collection of ‘extended and selected results’ from the 2015 SAI Intelligent Systems Conference, held in London. … All of the papers are interesting and each has a comprehensive bibliography. The reader interested in seeing a wide range of applications can dip into this book for examples.” (J. P. E. Hodgson, Computing Reviews, January, 2017)
