In this article we will introduce certain considerations that must be taken into account while implementing the change operations of the belief change theory. The abstract models of bellief change make no considerations in respecto to the internal structures of…

Cultural differences play a very important role in matching computer interfaces to the expectations of users from different national and cultural backgrounds. But to date, there has been little systematic research as to the extent of such differences, and how…

Implicitly exploitable parallelism for Logic Programming has received ample attention. Defeasible Argutmentation is specially apt for this optimizing technique. Defeasible Logic Programming (DLP), which is based on a defeasible argumentation formalism, could take full advantage of this type of parallel…

El conocimiento de la estrategias de producción de una raza, es decir, de las componentes de su producción final y de sus pesos relativos, contribuye a la búsqueda de biotipos adaptados a diferentes sistemas productivos. Con el propósito de definir…

There are many areas in Computer Science where time plays an important role. Artificial Intelligence is one of them. In this particular area Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) was developed to cope with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. This formalism combines…

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…

Effective document retrieval using domain knowledge and semantics is one of the major challenges in Information Retrieval. Over the last years, there has been a growing interest in ontologies as an artifact for human knowledge representation and a critical component…

This paper contributes to the empirical literature on pensions and saving by studying the influence of funded pension systems on the gross national saving rate using a sample of 48 developed and developing countries over the 1980-2004 period. To the…

El objetivo de este trabajo es acercarnos al conocimiento de los intermediarios culturales que habitaron el espacio fronterizo bonaerense en la primera mitad del siglo XIX. La elección de este período se fundamenta en que a lo largo del mismo…
