    of building a computer system that realistically models human thinking. The ethics of realizing such a dream are widely debated. Many believe it would be an extremely dangerous thing to accomplish, but that hasn’t stopped many from trying. The two main systems that have been developed so far that come closest to accomplishing this goal are neural networks and fuzzy logic control systems. This paper will only concern itself with the latter. Fuzzy logic control systems are designed to mimic

    of which five are universal and the sixth one is used specifically for different applications. Prediction of RMR by the use of fuzzy logic makes it easier to predict the rating of rock more or less the same as calculated from experimental data. It becomes of great importance at the moment when we don’t have the rating tables of the six parameters, then by the use of fuzzy membership functions, we can approximately predict the RMR of the rock. Introduction While working on fields, it is impossible

    non-standard algorithms might lead to wrong estimation of drought intensity. More effective methods for increase accuracy of assessment and analysis of remotely sensed data are applying models which can combine in data layers. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are used to combine the layers of data in the modeling of drought. Recently, space technologies, such RS and GIS, and the numerical modeling techniques have been developed as powerful tools for the ecological assessment of environment (Krivtsov

  • Winesburg Ohio Essay

    1876 Words  | 4 Pages

    Hollow Words in Winesburg, Ohio       Sherwood Anderson, in his masterpiece Winesburg, Ohio was writing against the notion that stories have to have a plot which reveals a moral idea or conclusion. Like the "tales" that Doctor Parcival tells George Willard in "The Philosopher," Anderson's short stories also seem to "begin nowhere and end nowhere" (51). We as readers must, like George Willard, decide if such stories are little more than "a pack of lies" or if rather, "they contain the

  • Naïve Bayesian Classification Essay

    1471 Words  | 3 Pages

    B. Naïve Bayesian Classification In machine learning, Naive Bayesian Classification is a family of a simple probabilistic classifier based on the Bayes theorem (or Bayes’s rule) with Naive (Strong) independence assumption between the features. It is one of the most efficient and effective classification algorithms and represents a supervised learning method as well as a statistical method for classification. Naïve Bayesian classifiers assume that the effect of an attribute value on a given class

  • Mind And Machine

    Technology has traditionally evolved as the result of human needs. Invention, when prized and rewarded, will invariably rise-up to meet the free market demands of society. It is in this realm that Artificial Intelligence research and the resultant expert systems have been forged. Much of the material that relates to the field of Artificial Intelligence deals with human psychology and the nature of consciousness. Exhaustive debate on consciousness and the possibilities of consciousnessness in machines has

  • Expert Systems Essay

    2494 Words  | 5 Pages

    Expert Systems: The Past, Present and Future of Knowledge-based Systems Expert Systems were invented as a way to decrease the reliance by corporations on human "experts" -- people who apply reasoning and experience to make judgements in a specific field, such as medicine, insurance underwriting or the operation of a power-plant. Hence, an expert system should include a database of facts and a way of reasoning about them. In many, but not all, applications it is also helpful to have a way for

    success of all operations. However, it depends on the ability to make sense of the operational environment and to anticipate those factors that influence operations, both negatively and positively. Unfortunately, the structure and behavior of the systems that commonly comprise these factors suggest that making sense of operational environments is a “wicked problem”. A systematic examination of the population, the insurgency, and the counterinsurgent using the eight OE variables is critical to the

The tools are Preventions, Property Protection, Public Education and Awareness

  • Greek Logic

    2365 Words  | 5 Pages

    transparencey INTRODUCTION The ancient Greeks knew that reasoning is a structured process governed, at least partially, by a system of explainable rules. Aristotele codified syllogisms; Euclide formulated geometric theorems; Vitruvius defined the criterion and referential key so that every architectural element could be proportioned according to an ideal model, symbolizing the aspirations and aptitudes of that particular civil society. In these forms of reasoning it is possible to distinguish
