Since then, the resulting CI-based implementations have afforded<br> increasingly reliable as well as robust performance, demonstrating their potential as either stand-alone<br> tools, or - whenever more advantageous - combined with each other as well as with traditional signal<br> processing techniques. The present review is focused upon the application of CI methodologies to<br> the - generally acknowledged as - key-issues of N(P)P operation, namely: control, diagnostics and<br> fault detection, monitoring, N(P)P operations, proliferation and resistance applications, sensor and<br> component reliability, spectroscopy, fusion supporting operations, as these have been reported in the<br> relevant primary literature for the period 1990-2015. At one end, 1990 constitutes the beginning of<br> the actual implementation of innovative, and &ndash; at the same time &ndash; robust as well as practical, directly<br> implementable in H/W, CI-based solutions/tools which have proved to be significantly superior to<br> the traditional as well as the artificial-intelligence-(AI)derived methodologies in terms of operation<br> efficiency as well as robustness-to-noise and/or otherwise distorted/missing information. At the<br> other end, 2015 marks a paradigm shift in terms of the emergent (and, swiftly, ubiquitous) use of<br> deep neural networks (DNNs) over existing ANN architectures and FL problem representations, thus<br> dovetailing the increasing requirements of the era of complex - as well as Big - Data and forever<br> changing the means of ANN/neuro-fuzzy construction and application/performance. By exposing<br> the prevalent CI-based tools for each key-issue of N(P)P operation, overall as well as over time for<br> the given 1990-2015 period, the applicability and optimal use of CI tools to NE problems is revealed,<br> thus providing the necessary know-how concerning crucial decisions that need to be made for the<br> increasingly efficient as well as safe exploitation of NE.</p></description> </descriptions> <fundingReferences> <fundingReference> <funderName>European Commission</funderName> <funderIdentifier funderIdentifierType="Crossref Funder ID">10.13039/501100000780</funderIdentifier> <awardNumber awardURI="info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/754316/">754316</awardNumber> <awardTitle>Core monitoring techniques and experimental validation and demonstration</awardTitle> </fundingReference> </fundingReferences> </resource>
