Corrigendum to three papers that deal with “Anti”-Bayesian Pattern Recognition [Pattern Recognition]
2014
In the papers 1 (Thomas and Oommen, 2013), 2 (Oommen and Thomas, 2014) and 3 (Thomas and Oommen, 2013), and their associated conference versions cited in those papers, we had introduced a new method of so-called "Anti"-Bayesian Pattern Recognition (PR) which achieved the classification using only a few (sometimes as few as two) points distant from the mean. While the PR strategy, in and of itself, is accurate, the claim that it was based on the Order Statistics (OS) of the distributions of the features is not. The PR and classification results are rather founded on the symmetric quantiles and not on the symmetric OSs. This brief paper corrects the flawed claim presented in those papers. Hig…
A new approach to portfolio selection based on forecasting
2023
In this paper we analyze the portfolio selection problem from a novel perspective based on the analysis and prediction of the time series corresponding to the portfolio’s value. Namely, we define the value of a particular portfolio at the time of its acquisition. Using the time series of historical prices of the different financial assets, we calculate backward the value that said portfolio would have had in past time periods. A damped trend model is then used to analyze this time series and to predict the future values of the portfolio, providing estimates of the mean and variance for different forecasting horizons. These measures are used to formulate the portfolio selection problem, whic…
An associative link from geometric to symbolic representations in artificial vision
1991
Recent approaches to modelling the reference of internal symbolic representations of intelligent systems suggest to consider a computational level of a subsymbolic kind. In this paper the integration between symbolic and subsymbolic processing is approached in the framework of the research work currently carried on by the authors in the field of artificial vision. An associative mapping mechanism is defined in order to relate the constructs of the symbolic representation to a geometric model of the observed scene.
A Bacterial-Based Algorithm to Simulate Complex Adaptative Systems
2014
Paper presented at the 13th International Conference on Simulation of Adaptive Behavior which took place at Castellón, Spain in 2014, July 22-25. Bacteria have demonstrated an amazing capacity to overcome envi-ronmental changes by collective adaptation through genetic exchanges. Using a distributed communication system and sharing individual strategies, bacteria propagate mutations as innovations that allow them to survive in different envi-ronments. In this paper we present an agent-based model which is inspired by bacterial conjugation of DNA plasmids. In our approach, agents with bounded rationality interact in a common environment guided by local rules, leading to Complex Adaptive Syste…
The Role of Artificial Intelligence Concepts in System Modelling and Simulation: An Overview
1994
The impact of modelling and simulation methodology research on the daily practice of the simulation community is becoming clearly perceivable. The same applies to the application of the artificial intelligence research in a diversity of computer related fields. As both fields are strongly based on models as the main way they convey their knowledge, the fact of synergy caused by combining these two computer related areas comes as a more or less logical consequence. There is an increasing interest of incorporating methods and techniques developed by and for the artificial intelligence community into modelling and simulation methodology and practice. This paper addresses common aspects and dif…
A very brief history of soft computing: Fuzzy Sets, artificial Neural Networks and Evolutionary Computation
2013
This paper gives a brief presentation of history of Soft Computing considered as a mix of three scientific disciplines that arose in the mid of the 20th century: Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Neural Networks, and Evolutionary Computation. The paper shows the genesis and the historical development of the three disciplines and also their meeting in a coalition in the 1990s.
Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity: A Systematic Mapping of Literature
2020
Due to the ever-increasing complexities in cybercrimes, there is the need for cybersecurity methods to be more robust and intelligent. This will make defense mechanisms to be capable of making real-time decisions that can effectively respond to sophisticated attacks. To support this, both researchers and practitioners need to be familiar with current methods of ensuring cybersecurity (CyberSec). In particular, the use of artificial intelligence for combating cybercrimes. However, there is lack of summaries on artificial intelligent methods for combating cybercrimes. To address this knowledge gap, this study sampled 131 articles from two main scholarly databases (ACM digital library and IEEE…
Early prediction of COVID-19 outcome using artificial intelligence techniques and only five laboratory indices
2022
We aimed to develop a prediction model for intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization of Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) patients using artificial neural networks (ANN). We assessed 25 laboratory parameters at first from 248 consecutive adult COVID-19 patients for database creation, training, and development of ANN models. We developed a new alpha-index to assess association of each parameter with outcome. We used 166 records for training of computational simulations (training), 41 for documentation of computational simulations (validation), and 41 for reliability check of computational simulations (testing). The first five laboratory indices ranked by importance were Neutrophil-to-lymphoc…
Constitutional Perspective of the Guarantees of Application of Artificial Intelligence: the Inescapable Protection of Fundamental Rights
2020
espanolLa Inteligencia Artificial tiene un innegable efecto en la sociedad actual, por lo que su estudio respecto de sus efectos juridicos deviene necesario. Y, en consecuencia, el modo en que se ven afectados los derechos fundamentales tiene especial importancia. De ahi que en el presente trabajo se estudie la influencia de los algoritmos en la determinacion de las resoluciones judi-ciales, sobre todo desde el punto de vista de como afectaria esta cuestion al derecho a la tutela judicial efectiva, reconocida como derecho fundamental en el articulo 24 de la Constitucion espanola. EnglishArtificial Intelligence has an undeniable effect on today’s society, so its study regarding its legal eff…
The subtlety of sameness: a theory and computer model of analogy-making
1995
International audience; The research described in this book is based on the premise that human analogy-making is an extension of our constant background process of perceiving - in other words, that analogy-making and the perception of sameness are two sides of the same coin. At the heart of the author's theory and computer model of analogy-making is the idea that the building-up and the manipulation of representations are inseparable aspects of mental functioning, in contrast to traditional AI models of high-level cognitive processes, which have almost always depended on a clean separation. A computer program called Tabletop forms analogies in a microdomain consisting of everyday objects on…
