Artificial Immune Systems

This book covers a rich and diverse variety of computer-based techniques, all involving some aspect of computational intelligence (CI). Authors recognize the limitations of individual paradigms, and propose some practical and novel ways in which different CI techniques can be combined with each other, or with more traditional computational techniques, to produce powerful problem-solving environments. Common themes to be found in the various chapters of this collection include the following: Fusion, Collaboration, and Emergence.
