Course Objective
This is an elective course, open to 3rd year B.Tech (CS, CSCE, and IT) students. Computational Intelligence (Soft
Computing) is a new concept for advanced information processing. The objective of Computational Intelligence
approaches is to introduce a new approach for analyzing and creating flexible information processing of humans
such as sensing, understanding, learning, recognizing, and thinking. Our aim is to realize three main methodologies
of Computational Intelligence and their hybridization in the first few classes. Following this, we discuss in details the
three methodologies which are biologically and linguistically motivated computational paradigms such as Neural
Networks, Fuzzy Systems, Evolutionary Computation and Hybrid Neuro-Fuzzy Models. Finally, students will be
acquainted with designing intelligent systems and provide them with a working knowledge for building these
systems.
