From the Perspective of Artificial Intelligence: A New Approach to the Nature of Consciousness

Author 1: Riccardo Manzotti Author 2: Sabina Jeschke

Consciousness is not only a philosophical but also a technological issue, since a conscious agent has evolutionary advantages. Thus, to replicate a biological level of intelligence in a machine, concepts of machine consciousness have to be considered. The widespread internalistic assumption that humans do not experience the world as it… Read full abstract & cite →

Rough Approximations for Incomplete Information*

Author 1: Jun-Fang LUO Author 2: Ke-Yun QIN

Rough set under incomplete information has been extensively studied. Based on valued tolerance relation for incomplete information system, several approaches were presented to dealing with the attribute reductions and rule extraction. We point out some drawbacks in the existing papers for valued tolerance relation based rough approximations and propose a… Read full abstract & cite →

Incremental Granular Modeling for Predicting the Hydrodynamic Performance of Sailing Yachts

Author 1: Keun-Chang Kwak

This paper is concerned with a design method for modeling Incremental Granular Model (IGM) based on Linguistic Model (LM) and Polynomial Regression (PR) from data set obtained by complex yacht hydrodynamics. For this purpose, we develop a systematic approach to generating automatic fuzzy rules based on Context-based Fuzzy C-Means (CFCM)… Read full abstract & cite →

What is the Right Illumination Normalization for Face Recognition?

Author 1: Aishat Mahmoud Dan-ali Author 2: Mohamed Moustafa

In this paper, we investigate the effect of some illumination normalization techniques on a simple linear subspace face recognition model using two distance metrics on three challenging, yet interesting databases. The research takes the form of experimentation and analysis in which five illumination normalization techniques were compared and analyzed using… Read full abstract & cite →

Checking the Size of Circumscribed Formulae

Author 1: Paolo Liberatore

The circumscription of a propositional formula T may not be representable in polynomial space, unless the polynomial hierarchy collapses. This depends on the specific formula T, as some can be circumscribed in little space and others cannot. The problem considered in this article is whether this happens for a given… Read full abstract & cite →

A two-level on-line learning algorithm of Artificial Neural Network with forward connections

Author 1: Stanislaw Placzek

An Artificial Neural Network with cross-connection is one of the most popular network structures. The structure contains: an input layer, at least one hidden layer and an output layer. Analysing and describing an ANN structure, one usually finds that the first parameter is the number of ANN’s layers. A hierarchical… Read full abstract & cite →
