Intelligent Autonomous systems are beginning to enter our daily life in ambient intelligence applications. These systems can directly sense and act in their own environment without demanding detailed supervision form humans. Many new challenges are emerging to create systems that can operate and interact in human inhabited environments. The goal of IAS 8 is to exchange and stimulate research ideas about how to bring active, intelligent systems into our daily lives. This publications contains an excellent selection of papers that shows the research of autonomous systems today. Subjects discussed are the designing of autonomous agents, Artificial Emotional Creatures and Multi-Robot Coordination in Highly Dynamic Environments.

This research book contains a sample of most recent research in the area of intelligent autonomous systems. The contributions include: General aspects of intelligent autonomous systems Design of intelligent autonomous robots Biped robots Robot for stair-case navigation Ensemble learning for multi-source information fusion Intelligent autonomous systems in psychiatry Condition monitoring of internal combustion engine Security management of an enterprise network High dimensional neural nets and applications This book is directed to engineers, scientists, professor and the undergraduate/postgraduate students who wish to explore this field further.

The goal of the Seventh International Conference on Intelligent Autonomous Systems (IAS-7) was to exchange and stimulate research ideas that make future robots and systems more intelligent and autonomous. This volume of proceedings contains 71 technical papers by authors from 15 countries.

This book contains scientific and engineering activities of the fifth international conference of Intelligent Autonomous Systems (IAS-5). The exploration for automatic systems has much attention over the centuries and created attractive research activities. The Intelligent and Autonomous systems are the current trend toward fully automatic systems that can adapt to changes in their environment. The purpose of the fifth IAS conference is to provide an opportunity for the international community of researchers in the field of autonomous systems as well as architectures, tools, components, techniques, and new IAS design methodologies. The emphasis will be on science and technology for autonomous systems working in a complex environment.

The International Conference on Intelligent Autonomous Systems (IAS) conference brings together leading researchers interested in all aspects of autonomy and adaptivity of artificial systems. This book contains the proceedings of the tenth IAS in Baden Baden, Germany.

This collection of twenty-three timely contributions covers a well-selected repertory of topics within the autonomous systems field. The book discusses a range of design, construction, control, and operation problems along with a multiplicity of well-established and novel solutions.
