Cognitive Networks (Adaptive and Cognitive Dynamic Systems: Signal Processing, Learning, Communications and Control)

Cognitive systems are modeled after the highly complex, integrated network that is the human brain. Haykin describes the fundamental issues pertaining to performance characterizations of complex dynamic systems, including perceptual attention, controlled attention, working memory, and decisionmaking based on big data.
The book presents the cognitive network as a system of systems. The primary examples of cognitive networks presented are cognitive radar networks and cognitive radio networks (both open-access and market-driven). The book is supported by seven appendices covering, among others, probability theory, Bayesian inference, the method of stochastic gradients, and Fisher information, all of which are applicable to multiple sections in the book.
