Competing claims about the level of ignorance, or knowledge, among the current Nexus generation are addressed. The core of the paper is a theoretical analysis of ignorance in the knowledge society. Specifically, the knowledge-ignorance paradox suggests that the intense specialization…

Se presenta una metodología simple y poderosa para modelar un agente
en LUPS, como evidencia de que dicho lenguaje es adecuado para representar
actualizaciones de conocimiento dinámico. En particular, esta
metodología introduce conceptos nuevos en los sistemas automáticos

Knowledge acquisition for systems based on knowledge can be called knowledge engineering, according to Feigenbaum (1980) who used the term to describe the reduction of a wide context of knowledge for a set of facts and rules. The term Knowledge…

La aparición de los manuscritos de las dos canciones sobre textos de Pierre Loti, Crépuscule y Tristesse, permiten datar definitivamente dichas obras, ya que el lugar y fecha de composición aparecen indicados por Albéniz en cada una de las partituras:…

En este artículo tratamos de reconstruir la vida de Diego de Urrea, uno de los traductores e intérpretes de árabe más importantes de finales del s. XVI y principios del XVII en España. Sus actividades como catedrático en Alcalá de…

In ocean acoustics, rapidly deployable, autonomous, bottom moored hydrophone arrays allow for quick, cost effective deployment, but result in poor knowledge of sensor positions. Because advanced array processing techniques, such as Matched Beam Processing, are highly sensitive to errors in…

Most neural network learning algorithms cannot use knowledge other than what is provided in the training data. Initialized using random weights, they cannot use prior knowledge such as knowledge stored in previously trained networks. This manuscript thesis addresses this problem.…

Drawing on an empirical study on automakers? management of supplier
involvement in product development in Japan, this paper shows that when the design of
a component is outsourced to a supplier, how much and what automakers know about
the component…

In the restricted single-machine common due date problem the goal is to find a schedule for the n jobs which jointly minimizes the sum of earliness and tardiness penalties, while for the weighted tardiness problem the goal is to find…

Argumentative formalisms have been widely recognized as knowledge representation and reasoning tools able to deal with incomplete and potentially contradictory informa- tion. All such formalisms are computationally demanding. Hence, optimizing argumen- tative systems has been approached from di erent views.
