The Rise of Agentic Intelligence: From Theory to Real-World Applications, (Hardcover)

Artificial Intelligence is transitioning from passive predictive models to Agentic AI--systems capable of autonomous reasoning, goal-directed behavior, and dynamic interaction with complex environments. This book provides a comprehensive examination of this paradigm, integrating conceptual foundations with architectural frameworks and diverse real-world applications. It clarifies key definitions of agency, critically analyzes agent capabilities and limitations, and details the core mechanics of autonomous reasoning that distinguish agentic systems from traditional automation.<p></p> The book surveys emerging methodologies, including the evolution from Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to Agentic RAG, multimodal curiosity mechanisms in language models, and hybrid LLM-optimizer approaches for complex scheduling and orchestration. It further bridges theory and practice through domain-specific chapters addressing deployment in healthcare--emphasizing explainable interpretation for EEG-based classification--enterprise BPM and workflow-centric systems, and cyber-physical infrastructures. Technical contributions also examine tool-based multi-agent engineering workflows, such as automated CAD-to-mesh transformation. Concluding with a critical assessment of challenges and opportunities, the volume offers a rigorous reference for researchers and practitioners advancing autonomous intelligent systems.<p></p>
