" Intelligent Computing in Signal Processing and Pattern Recognition " constitutes the results of the International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2006, held in Kunming, China, in August 2006. The carefully reviewed contributions are included in five volumes of edited books, including one volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), one volume of Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), one volume of Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI), and two volumes of Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences (LNCIS). The 149 revised full papers of this volume were reviewed and selected from over 3000 submissions, covering the field of Intelligent Computing in Signal Processing and Pattern Recognition, as well as a Special Session on Computing for Searching Strategies to Control Dynamic Processes.
