Computational Intelligence technologies have madegreat progress in recent decades. Real world
environments produce big data, which is large-scale,
high-dimensional, multi-modal, sequential andambiguous data. Since many real world problems are
not considered to be well-posed mathematically,
attempts of analytic approaches to find solutions met
some difficulties. For dealing with such complex
data, various techniques are required such asvisualization by clustering of multi-modal andsequential data, automatic feature extraction byrepresentation
learning,
acquisition
ofcomprehensible knowledge from learning results andso on. Driven by such motivation, emerging
computational intelligence approaches have been
proposed in the soft-computing areas like artificial
neural networks, evolutionary computation and fuzzy
theories. As one of the successes, Deep Learning is
now becoming popular in the field of computerscience with the advancement of computer hardware
like GPGPU environments. According to the brisk
activities, many researchers also have been able tochallenge solving industrial problems such as thecontrol system of industrial robots, analysis of
medical database, etc. We discuss in this session thecomputational intelligence technologies for learning
real world complex data, which will make an explicit
or implicit knowledge to the real world problems thatprior technologies cannot provide satisfactory
solutions.
