At present, there is a global driving towards the concept of universities as protagonists of production of knowledge and generation of technological innovation for the society. To meet that new reality, universities have been challenged to change traditional structures and…

The bivalve Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857), also called golden mussel, is native to Asia but becoming dispersed around the world. The golden mussel resembles the invasive dreissenid bivalves in many respects, and although much less studied it evidently has broader…

Generar el diseño geométrico vial empleando los conocimientos obtenidos en la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana y con apoyo del paquete computacional Autodesk Land Desktop, adaptándose a la realidad del sitio., Generate geometric road design using knowledge gained Salesian Polytechnic University, with…

Inheritance is one of the most important object-oriented mechanisms, allowing code reuse and a conceptual hierachical modelling of a given domain.
However, as a white-box reuse mechanism, it introduces hidden (implicit) coupling between classes in a hierarchy. This problem makes…

This study investigates an approach of knowledge discovery and data mining in insufficient databases. An application of Computational Taxonomy analysis demonstrates that the approach is effective in such a data mining process. The approach is characterized by the use of…

Humans recognize optical reflectance properties of surfaces such as metal, plastic, or paper from a single image without knowledge of illumination. We develop a machine vision system to perform similar recognition tasks automatically. Reflectance estimation under unknown, arbitrary illumination proves…

Current reasoning systems attempt to model an agent's knowledge and interaction with its environment in a symbolic manner. This environment, its world is generally dynamic and changing due to natural evolution or the actions of other agents that are a…
