The proceedings of the Symposium on Adaptive Systems for Signal Processing, Communications, and Control, 2000. It addresses fundamentals of adaptive and learning systems; signal processing; radar/sonar; wireless communications; pattern recognition; chaos; and more.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Cognitive Systems and Signal Processing, ICCSIP2016, held in Beijing, China, in December 2016. The 59 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 171 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Control and Decision; Image and Video; Machine Learning; Robotics; Cognitive System; Cognitive Signal Processing.

Covering formulation, algorithms, and structural results, and linking theory to real-world applications in controlled sensing (including social learning, adaptive radars and sequential detection), this book focuses on the conceptual foundations of partially observed Markov decision processes (POMDPs). It emphasizes structural results in stochastic dynamic programming, enabling graduate students and researchers in engineering, operations research, and economics to understand the underlying unifying themes without getting weighed down by mathematical technicalities. Bringing together research from across the literature, the book provides an introduction to nonlinear filtering followed by a systematic development of stochastic dynamic programming, lattice programming and reinforcement learning for POMDPs. Questions addressed in the book include: when does a POMDP have a threshold optimal policy? When are myopic policies optimal? How do local and global decision makers interact in adaptive decision making in multi-agent social learning where there is herding and data incest? And how can sophisticated radars and sensors adapt their sensing in real time?

This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Advances in Multi-Sensor Information Fusion: Theory and Applications 2017" that was published in Sensors

The current volume “New Advances in Intelligent Signal Processing” contains extended works based on a careful selection of papers presented originally at the jubilee sixth IEEE International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing (WISP’2009), held in Budapest Hungary, August 26-28, 2009 - celebrating the 10 years anniversary of the WISP event series. The present book does not intent to be an overall survey on the fields of interest of the area, but tries to find topics which represent new, hot, and challenging problems. The book begins with papers investigating selected problems of Modeling, Identification, and Clustering such as fuzzy random variables, evolutionary multi-objective neural network models, a structural learning model of neural networks within a Boltzmann machine, a robust DNA-based clustering techniques, and the advances of combining multi-criteria analysis of signals and pattern recognition using machine learning principles. In the second part of the book Image Processing is treated. The carefully edited chapters deal with fuzzy relation based image enhancement, image contrast control technique based on the application of Łukasiewicz algebra operators, low complexity situational models of image quality improvement, flexible representation of map images to quantum computers, and object recognition in images. The last chapter presents an image processing application for elderly care, performing real-time 3D tracking based on a new evaluative multi-modal algorithm.
