This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy network where all its parameters can be tuned simultaneously using Genetic Algorithms. The approach combines the merits of fuzzy logic theory, neural networks and genetic algorithms. The proposed neuro-fuzzy network does not require a priori…

This thesis explores a holistic design process through which architectural elements can engage the dynamic forces of natural phenomena and integrate the spatial and temporal experience of building form with its physical environment. The framework for this exploration is a…

The Intellectual Creation Diffusion Service (SeDiCI) of the UNLP was created with the main objective of communicating to the society all the knowledge acquired in different academic fields of our university. This is how we can return all the efforts…

This article proposes a method for achieving an appropriate balance between the parameters of support, precision, and simplicity during the evolution of classification rules by means of genetic programming. The method includes an adaptive procedure in order to achieve such…

Defeasible argumentation is one of the approaches that attempt to address the challenges arising when we reason defeasibly, with several formalisms in the literature reaching a mature state. Nowadays, several of them started shifting their semantics towards a dialectical characterization.…

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…

Since huge amounts of spatial data can be easily collected from various applications, ranging from remote sensing technology to geographical information system, the extraction and comprehension of spatial knowledge is a more and more important task. Many excellent studies on…

We live in a world, where common sense is applied almost everywhere. To apply
common sense is to understand simple facts about people and everyday life.
The study of commonsense knowledge and reasoning is important, whether to
help understand…
