Hybrid Systems
	Description Software systems which employs a combination of methods and techniques from Artificial Intelligence after the development of hybrid connectionist-symbolic models. Every natural intelligent system is hybrid because it performs mental operations on both the symbolic and subsymbolic levels. For the past few years there has been an increasing discussion of the importance of such an integration that led to the development of new simple and specific AI systems (such as systems for computer vision, speech synthesis, etc., or software that employs some of the models mentioned above). Now it’s time for integration to create broad AI systems to be employed in fields as: Surveillance Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) Real-Time pattern-based decisions
