Completely supervised training algorithms for B-spline neural networks and neuro-fuzzy systems

Complete supervised training algorithms for B-spline neural networks and fuzzy rule-based systems are discussed. By interducing the relationship between B-spline neural networks and certain types of fuzzy models, training algorithms developed initially for neural networks can be adapted by fuzzy systems.

Preface to the special section on algorithms and architectures for real-time control

Rapid developments in microelectronics and computer science continue to fuel new opportunities for real-time control engineers. The ever-increasing system complexity and sophistication, environmental legislation, economic competition, safety and reliability constitute some of the driving forces for the research themes presented at the IFAC Workshop on Algorithms and Architectures for Real-Time Control (AARTC'2000). The Spanish Society for Automatic Control hosted AARTC'2000, which was held at Palma de Maiorca, Spain, from 15 to 17 May. This workshop was the sixth in the series.

Algorithms and architectures for real-time control

Algorithm and Architectures for Real-Time Control Workshop had the objective to investigate the state of the art and to present new research and application results in software and hardware for real-timecontrol, as well as to bring together engeneers and computer scientists who are researchers, developers and practitioners, both from the academic and the industrial world.
