Rule-Based Evolutionary Online Learning Systems A Principled Approach to LCS Analysis and Design

This book offers a comprehensive introduction to learning classifier systems (LCS) – or more generally, rule-based evolutionary online learning systems. LCSs learn interactively – much like a neural network – but with an increased adaptivity and flexibility. This book provides the necessary backgrou...
