Paying special attention to his reflections on a esthetics, it is held in this paper that the later Wittgenstein, far from rejecting the"transcendent" from his philosophical discourse as he is usually read, aims rather at recovering it and giving it…

A fuzzy cognitive map is a graphical means of representing arbitrary complex models of interrelations between concepts. The purpose of this paper is to describe a dynamic/adaptive fuzzy cognitive map based on the random neural network model. Previously, we have…

Este artículo se propone analizar el proceso de la filosofía peruana en el desplazamiento del positivismo al espiritualismo, a fines del siglo XIX y comienzos del XX. La tesis central es que hay un movimiento desde una concepción representacionalista del…

Sports is considered a synonym for body and mind health. However, the so called contaet sports, the main example being boxing, more or less go beyond this definition. Contemporary boxing is a spetacle, who is a continuation of historical fights…

A novel method of detection and classification for marine mammals is presented which uses techniques from independent component analysis to solve the blind source separation problem for North Atlantic right whales (Eubalaena glacialis). Using the fundamentally non-Gaussian nature of marine…

The threat to the survival of several whale species and the introduction of the Species at Risk Act (SARA) has highlighted the need for better knowledge about the biology and ecology of marine mammals in Canadian waters. The North Pacific…

In this paper we present a very simple derivation of the constants of motion for dynamical systems, which requires only an elementary knowledge of the theory of continuous groups. In addition, through the infinitesimal Lorenz transformations group, we obtain a…

A two-dimensional Laplace equation is separable in elliptic coordinates and leads to a Chebyshev-like differential equation for both angular and radial variables. In the case of the angular variable η (-1 < η < 1), the solutions are the well…

A system for visual recognition is described, with implications for the general problem of representation of knowledge to assist control. The immediate objective is a computer system that will recognize objects in a visual scene, specifically hammers. The computer receives…

The book is about diagnostic ultrasound imaging authored by Dr. Thomas L. Zabo. Graduate students in medical physics and biomedical engineering with backgrounds in calculus, complex numbers and some knowledge on electric circuits would benefit from this book.
