Several applications require reasoning over autonomously developed ontologies. Initially conceived to explicit the semantics of a certain domain, these ontologies become a powerful tool for supporting business interactions, once heterogeneities have been s ...
The relative displacement rates of the halide substituent from 2-fluoro- and 2-chloropyridines by EtONa in EtOH at +25 Deg were assessed by competition kinetics. The 2-fluoropyridine reacts 320 times faster than the chloro analog. A CF3 group increases the ...
This paper describes inferences based on linear predictors for stationary time series. These methods are flexible, since relatively few assumptions are needed to fit a linear predictor. A confidence interval for the resulting predicted value, which takes a ...
Improved electron energy confinement in tokamak plasmas, related to internal transport barriers, has been linked to nonmonotonic current density profiles. This is difficult to prove experimentally since usually the current profiles evolve continuously and ...
Summary form only given. This paper discusses the problem of control and autonomy of synthetic actors. It first describes an animation approach where synthetic vision is used for navigation by a synthetic actor. The vision is the only channel of informatio ...
Use cases are an excellent tool for capturing behavioral requirements of software systems, but they are not an ideal work product for driving design activities. We believe that there is value from complementing use case descriptions with pre- and postcondi ...
Advanced tokamak regimes obtained in ASDEX Upgrade, DIII-D, FF-U, JET, JT-60U, TCV and Tore Supra experiments are assessed both in terms of their fusion performance and capability for ultimately reaching steady-state using data from the international inter ...
This paper examines a number of chaos shift keying methods Different approaches for the optimization of the transmitter and the receiver (based on statistical arguments) are compared through simulation. Based on the results, The tradeoff between computatio ...
The frequent use of past experience by human engineers when solving new problems has led to an interest in the use of case based reasoning (CBR) to help automate engineering design. In engineering design it often occurs that many past experiences must be c ...
The aim of this tutorial is to show that, when properly formulated, probability theory is simply the science of plausible reasoning, which permits us to represent exactly and to update our state of information about the world. This is nothing new, since in ...
