Methodologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Systems Engineering

This paper presents an overview of the methodologies and applications of artificially intelligent systems (AIS) in different engineering disciplines with the objective of unifying the basic information and outlining the main features. These are knowledge-based systems (KBS), artificial neural networks (ANN), and fuzzy logic and systems (FLS). To illustrate the concepts, merits, and demerits, a typical application is given from each methodology....
