The matrix connection method (MCM) is an alternative procedure for theorem proving than the usual resolution technique. We already have used the MCM for finding models in a real-time knowledge-based system generator. In this paper, we adapt the MCM to…

The use of new technologies does not mean that the applied education model is modern. New technologies can be used in a way that follows the traditional education model, with all its deficiencies. The collaborative education model involves students in…

“La tecnología KDD está basada en un bien definido proceso KDD de múltiples pasos, para el descubrimiento de conocimiento en grandes colecciones de datos. El proceso KDD es iterativo por naturaleza, y depende de la interacción para la toma de…

Associating the pattern in text data with the pattern with time series data is a novel task. In this paper, an approach that utilizes the features of the time series data and domain knowledge is proposed and used to identify…

A multi-agent system is made up of multiple interacting autonomous agents. It can be viewed as a society in which each agent performs its activity cooperating to achieve common goals, or competing for them. They establish dialogues via some kind…
