Analysis and validation in design time of distributed control systems implemented by means of rule based expert systems

2005

In this paper a new analytical method for control systems validation is presented. The control system will be implemented by means of expert systems based on rule nets, which are a formalism that seeks to express an automatism in a similar way to as would make it a human being: "IF antecedents THEN consequent". But at the same time rule nets are a tool for the design, analysis and implementation of rule based systems (RBS), and consist on a mathematic-logical structure which analytically reflects the set of rules that the human expert has designed. The validation consist on the analysis of the decisive rule nets properties in design time. This properties have been studied and formalized com…

The Duality of Entropy/Extropy, and Completion of the Kullback Information Complex

2018

The refinement axiom for entropy has been provocative in providing foundations of information theory, recognised as thoughtworthy in the writings of both Shannon and Jaynes. A resolution to their concerns has been provided recently by the discovery that the entropy measure of a probability distribution has a dual measure, a complementary companion designated as &ldquo

Pension Schemes and Falling Birth-Rates: Change in Customs or Microeconomic Optimization?

2004

In this paper, we develop an overlapping generations model where fertility is endogenous. The utility of the parents is a function of the number of their children, and each child implies two types of fixed costs: the financial cost and the cost in terms of time. A "pay-as-you-go" pension scheme introduces an externality in that the number of children will be fewer than optimal because their favorable impact on the level of pension income is not taken into account. First, we define the competitive equilibrium dynamics and the steady state. This allows comparisons with the optimal stationary state, a notion which generalizes the golden rule. Two instruments, pensions and child benefits, are n…

Legalità penale e Rule of Law

2016

Il principio di legalità in materia penale è circondato, oggi, da un’aura di paradosso. Per un verso, esso è considerato l’ovvio architrave di un sistema penale che, come quello italiano, si voglia ispirato ai principi della garanzia delle libertà individuali e della separazione dei poteri: pertanto, esso campeggia nei testi costituzionali e nei documenti internazionali sui diritti umani, e nei capitoli iniziali (quelli dedicati ai “principi fondamentali” della materia) di tutti i manuali di diritto penale. Per altro verso, invece, il destino del principio di legalità appare segnato. Il profluvio caotico delle leggi, il disordine delle fonti, la presenza di organismi sovranazionali (in part…

Implementations of a novel algorithm for colour constancy

1997

AbstractIn agreement with the principles of the relativistic model proposed by Creutzfeldtet al., with the photometric rule (lightness anchoring rule) and with the influence of simultaneous contrast in the appearance of a visual scene, we propose a first-stage mechanism yielding substantial colour constancy. We have defined a set of first-stage colour descriptors, and to test their utility, we have performed a simulation using a Machine Vision System (MVS). The statistical stability of the descriptors for Munsell samples under different illuminants is good.

Learning vector quantization with alternative distance criteria

2003

An adaptive algorithm for training of a nearest neighbour (NN) classifier is developed in this paper. This learning rule has some similarity to the well-known LVQ method, but uses the nearest centroid neighbourhood concept to estimate optimal locations of the codebook vectors. The aim of this approach is to improve the performance of the standard LVQ algorithms when using a very small codebook. The behaviour of the learning technique proposed here is experimentally compared to those of the plain k-NN decision rule and the LVQ algorithms.

Ortotipografía científica en publicaciones médico-quirúrgicas: la normativa académica relativa a la prefijación

2015

El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar el grado de cumplimiento de la normativa académica relativa a la correcta escritura de las palabras prefijadas (recogida en la nueva Ortografía de 2010) que realizan algunas publicaciones periódicas de carácter científico-técnico y, en concreto, del ámbito médico-quirúrgico. Se trata de una labor de profundización en un estudio anterior (Aguilar Ruiz 2012: 9-12). Para ello, comentamos los errores e incorrecciones más recurrentes de un corpus de publicaciones científicas argentinas de finales de 2012. The aim of this paper is to analyze the degree of compliance on the correct academic writing prefixed words (contained in the new spelling) that pe…

Positional influences on information packaging: Insights from topological fields in German

2012

Abstract We present three event-related potential studies that investigated the contribution of givenness and position-induced topicality (what a sentence is about) to information processing. The studies compared two types of referential expressions (given and inferred noun phrases (NPs)) in distinct sentential positions. The data revealed position-specific effects, reflected by an interaction of topicality and givenness: inferred NPs registered a more pronounced Late Positivity than given NPs in the canonical sentence-medial position, but not sentence-initially (Experiment 1). Additionally, there was a stable effect of givenness across positions, reflected by an N400 for inferred over give…

2017

La Educación Emocional constituye una estrategia viable y eficaz para desarrollar las habilidades emocionales del alumnado ya sea en la escuela o fuera de ella. El objetivo fundamental es que el alumnado pueda conocer tanto sus emociones internas como externas y reconocer las de los demás, incrementando la empatía y habilidades sociales que le permitirán enfrentar el mundo con una visión diferente, desde el trabajo que se realice en la Educación Física. Mediante este programa la Educación Emocional pretende estar presente en los centros educativos de primaria dentro de la programación de Educación Física. Para ello, se ha elaborado “Lleicop Rules”, un programa de Educación Física basado en …
