We propose a vision of the structure of knowledge and processes of learning based upon the particularity of experience. Highly specific cognitive structures are constructed through activities in limited domains of experience. For new domains, new cognitive structures develop from…

If we are to understand how we can build machines capable of broad purpose learning and reasoning, we must first aim to build systems that can represent, acquire, and reason about the kinds of commonsense knowledge that we humans have…

In the information age, knowledge leads to profits, power and success. As an ancestor of data mining, machine learning has concerned itself with discovery of new knowledge on its own. This paper presents experiment results produced by genetic algorithms in…

In this paper, a method to combine visual and force information using the
information obtained from the movement flow-based visual servoing system is proposed. This
method allows not only to achieve a given desired position but also to specify the…

We explore, in increasing complexity, various strategies for addressing the Multi-
Armed Bandit Problem in order to find the algorithm that maximizes the clickthrough
rate in the Exploration and Exploitation Challenge 3 competition. The data used
result from the actions…

The collaboration of researchers in different fields, institutions, and nations continues to be important as new ideas and solutions result from the combination of different knowledge and experiences. The Cambridge MIT Institute (CMI) Online Project Assessment System(OPAS) aims to collect…

El Coruña Corpus de documentos científicos será usado para el estudio
diacrónico del discurso científico en la mayoría de los niveles lingüísticos, contribuyendo
de esta forma al estudio del desarrollo histórico del inglés. El Coruña Corpus
Tool es un sistema…

We strain our eyes, cramp our necks, and destroy our hands trying to interact with computer on their terms. At the extreme, we strap on devices and weigh ourselves down with cables trying to re-create a sense of place inside…

En este trabajo se presenta un método para la generación automática de resúmenes basado en grafos semánticos. El sistema utiliza conceptos y relaciones de WordNet para construir un grafo que representa el documento, así como un algoritmo de clustering basado…

Integration of daylight availability in time and architectural space is a critical element in achieving optimal comfort and productivity, as well as in minimizing energy consumption. In recent years, there has been an increase in the demand of the better…
