Introduction to Soft Computing

Introduction to Soft Computing. Instructor: Prof. DebasisSamanta, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Kharagpur. Soft computing is an emerging approach to computing which parallels the remarkable ability of the human mind to reason and learn in an environment of uncertainty and imprecision. Soft computing is based on some biological inspired methodologies such as genetics, evolution, ante's behaviors, particles swarming, human nervous systems, etc. Now, soft computing is the only solution when we don't have any mathematical modeling of problem solving (i.e., algorithm), need a solution to a complex problem in real time, easy to adapt with changed scenarios and can be implemented with parallel computing. It has enormous applications in many application areas such as medical diagnosis, computer vision, hand-written character recognition, pattern recognition, machine intelligence, weather forecasting, network optimization, VLSI design, etc. (from nptel.ac.in)
