Abstract The field of computational intelligence (artificial intelligence) has evolved with the objective of developing machines that can think like humans. As evident, the ultimate achievement in this field would be to mimic or exceed human cognitive capabilities including reasoning, understanding, learning, and so on. Computational intelligence includes neural networks, fuzzy inference systems, global optimization algorithms, probabilistic computing, swarm intelligence and so on. This article introduces the fundamental aspects of the key components of modern computational intelligence.
