Background
Nikola Kasabov was born on August 12, 1948 in Svishtov, Veliko Turnovo, Bulgaria. He is the son of Kiril Ivanov Kasabov and Kapka Nikolova (Mankova) Kasabov.
Sofia, Bulgaria
In 1971 Nikola Kasabov received his Master of Science degree from the Technical University of Sofia and a Doctor of Philosophy in 1975.

In a clear and accessible style, Kasabov describes rule-based and connectionist techniques and then their combinations, with fuzzy logic included, showing the application of the different techniques to a set of simple prototype problems, which makes comparisons possible. A particularly strong feature of the text is that it is filled with applications in engineering, business, and finance. AI problems that cover most of the application-oriented research in the field (pattern recognition, speech and image processing, classification, planning, optimization, prediction, control, decision making, and game simulations) are discussed and illustrated with concrete examples.

This volume comprises selected chapters that cover contemporary issues of the development and the application of neuro-fuzzy techniques. Developing and using neural networks, fuzzy logic systems, genetic algorithms and statistical methods as separate techniques, or in their combination, have been research topics in several areas such as mathematics, engineering, computer science, physics, economics and finance. Here the latest results in the fields are presented from both theoretical and practical point of view. The volume has four main parts. Part one presents generic techniques and theoretical issues while part two, three and four deal with practically oriented models, systems and implementations.

This edited volume comprises invited chapters that cover five areas of the current and the future development of intelligent systems and information sciences. Half of the chapters were presented as invited talks at the Workshop "Future Directions for Intelligent Systems and Information Sciences" held in Dunedin, New Zealand, 22-23 November 1999 after the International Conference on Neuro-Information Processing held in Perth, Australia.

This book is introducing the scope and problems of a new scientific discipline - Computational Neurogenetic Modeling (CNGM). CNGM is concerned with the study and development of dynamic neuronal models for modeling brain functions with respect to genes and dynamic interactions between genes. These include neural network models and their integration with gene network models. This new area brings together knowledge from various scientific disciplines like artificial neural networks, neuroscience, and molecular biology.

The book constitutes the proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks, ICANN 2013, held in Sofia, Bulgaria, in September 2013. The 78 papers included in the proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 128 submissions. The focus of the papers is on following topics: neurofinance graphical network models, brain machine interfaces, evolutionary neural networks, neurodynamics, complex systems, neuroinformatics, neuroengineering, hybrid systems, computational biology, neural hardware, bioinspired embedded systems, and collective intelligence.

The Springer Handbook of Bio-/Neuro-Informatics is the first published book in one volume that explains together the basics and the state-of-the-art of two major science disciplines in their interaction and mutual relationship, namely: information sciences, bioinformatics and neuroinformatics. Bioinformatics is the area of science which is concerned with the information processes in biology and the development and applications of methods, tools and systems for storing and processing of biological information thus facilitating new knowledge discovery. Neuroinformatics is the area of science which is concerned with the information processes in biology and the development and applications of methods, tools and systems for storing and processing of biological information thus facilitating new knowledge discovery. The text contains 62 chapters organized in 12 parts, 6 of them covering topics from information science and bioinformatics, and 6 cover topics from information science and neuroinformatics. Each chapter consists of three main sections: introduction to the subject area, presentation of methods and advanced and future developments. The Springer Handbook of Bio-/Neuroinformatics can be used as both a textbook and as a reference for postgraduate study and advanced research in these areas.
