The three-volume set LNCS 6675, 6676 and 6677 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Neural Networks, ISNN 2011, held in Guilin, China, in May/June 2011. The total of 215 papers presented in all three volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 651 submissions. The contributions are structured in topical sections on computational neuroscience and cognitive science; neurodynamics and complex systems; stability and convergence analysis; neural network models; supervised learning and unsupervised learning; kernel methods and support vector machines; mixture models and clustering; visual perception and pattern recognition; motion, tracking and object recognition; natural scene analysis and speech recognition; neuromorphic hardware, fuzzy neural networks and robotics; multi-agent systems and adaptive dynamic programming; reinforcement learning and decision making; action and motor control; adaptive and hybrid intelligent systems; neuroinformatics and bioinformatics; information retrieval; data mining and knowledge discovery; and natural language processing.

This book focuses on the characteristics of cooperative control problems for general linear multi-agent systems, including formation control, air traffic control, rendezvous, foraging, role assignment, and cooperative search.

This book approaches the challenging topic of optimal control for nonlinear systems using the tools of adaptive dynamic programming (ADP). It shows readers how to derive necessary stability and convergence criteria for their own systems.

Fuzzy logic methodology has proven effective in dealing with complex nonlinear systems containing uncertainties that are otherwise difficult to model.

This text offers a wide selection of techniques aimed at achieving three goals: the suppression, the synchronization, and the generation of chaos. It includes introductory material reviewing the history of chaos control and key mathematical preliminaries.
